I feel fabulous over 40 because I strive to be a better person everyday. A strong woman keeps her strength rooted in a good foundation.

What do you love about being over 40?

I feel confident about myself. I love the life I created and appreciate the little things. I enjoy staying active because it makes me feel young. I have achieved alot at my age and grown in my faith. Everything I have in my life right now is more than enough.

How do you stay fabulous?

I get a manicure and pedicure atleast twice a month. I have a morning and night-time face routine. I go to the department stores often shopping for new products to nourish my hair and maintain it weekly with a nice blow dry. My everyday look is very casual. I enjoy putting on make-up when I go out anywhere but not too overly done; mostly foundation, concealer, eyeliner, eyeshadow and lip gloss. I keep it very natural and try to stay stylish by keeping up with the fashion but on a budget.

What would you do with the $40,000?

I would use it for both my kids future. I worry for them because life right now is so difficult. It’s not like it was when I was growing up. I want my kids to go to college, especially now that my daughter just started high school. I haven’t been able to set up a savings account just for them. My husband and I work very hard to give them a good life but financially we are unable to put extra money away for that. If I win this would be a blessing towards our financial goals as a family.
