What do you love about being over 40?

I love all the new phases of my life, like being a recognized artist, being clean 13 years today, having one of the most traumatic lives ever but getting stronger with every experience and still learning everyday. This part of my life has been all about being my best self and being all the things I dreamed of yet never thought possible! I love being a part of my grown children's life events, and getting to watch my grandchildren grow.and be here for my mother n father who have been so good to me

How do you stay fabulous?

I love to try new hair styles, makeup, clothes, and beauty products..I push mow my yard, dance, and work 4 jobs to support my family all while dressed for success and staying healthy. Also vitamins..as I need them now..lol

What would you do with the $40,000?

I would put a down-payment on a house for my husband youngest daughter n i...and then put the money down on my dream storefront studio so I can really make my dreams come true..always dreamed of owning my own house n having a studio with a classroom for my art students this would make our whole life change in an instant..we work 5 jobs between my husband and I..and still struggle..life has been hard but we put in everything we've got!
