I’m more confident and self assured in my own skin at my age. I don’t seek anyone else’s validation. I’m in charge of my own happiness.

I love being more knowledgeable about life because of my own personal experiences throughout my years. I also love that I was a young mother with two kids that are now very successful adults and now my life is my own again. Making choices for just myself has been a new adventure. I also love that I am not scared or intimidated by saying I don’t agree or dislike something. I’m not here to please anyone else but myself and my own happiness.
How do you stay fabulous?I stay fabulous by keeping active as well as doing what makes me happy. Not allowing myself to be concerned with what others think. Stressing about other people’s opinions of you will only give you wrinkles.
What would you do with the $40,000?My daughter has been expressing to me that she wants to purchase her first home by next year. I would love to be able to help her achieve that goal. My son who is older than my daughter refuses to get a car and relies on public transportation. I would buy him a car so he has no more excuses not to drive.
