I am ebullient like I never was before not because I have the world by its tail 'cause I don’t but because I am over 40 and living is grand

Receive Text UpdatesI love that I’m no longer encumbered with concerns about my future self. I look back on a fabulous past, I’m all Gen X! I enjoy the present with a confidence I never knew I could and I embrace the future with a calm I never knew I would. I would tell you that I am about 89% complete. Most of the hard work is done and, yet, I still have something to look forward to. I finally know exactly who I am so everything I do, now, feels incredibly more fluid. It’s quite liberating!
How do you stay fabulous?I am a professional flower gardener so that pretty much sums it up! I stay social and try to keep my hair, cloths and makeup up to date. Age appropriate but a little edgy. I pay attention to my body and soul. I try to listen to what they are saying and what I allow in.
What would you do with the $40,000?Pay for my home! That would give me a beautiful confidence as I embark on this new decade. It would be the absolute best gift that I could give to my children as they are my single greatest concern, But more than for them if my home was paid for I could actually consider the idea of breathing calmly and living a little while I still can. It would write the next and last chapters for me! I would be able to do life with abandon and I absolutely would!
