I am a shy person, but now that I’m over 40 , I don’t worry as much about what people think about me. I just try to be who I am and if people like me that’s great. If not, I don’t worry about it anymore. I love seeing my children living their lives and witnessing their success. I love being a grandmother to my 6 grandchildren, it has been such a blessing. I enjoy the time I have with my husband and my family. I am fortunate to have really good friends as well. We love growing old together.
How do you stay fabulous?I try to stay active and keep current with my appearance. Love taking care of myself the best I can. Because I have younger children for someone my age, my friends are younger than I am, I think that helps keep me young. I try to stay away from negativity and stay optimistic. I try to treat others the way I want to be treated. I love God and try to trust him.
What would you do with the $40,000?To be honest, I would pay off a lot of our bills. My husband was out of work for six months. With the remaining, I would love to go on a second honeymoon with my husband. We have raised our kids. We are so blessed to have each other. I went through a lot before God put us together. A trip would be awesome. With all our kids we have had the pleasure of raising, we have not gotten away alone except for once in October 2023 for three days. We have been married for 23 years. It has been a fun ride.
