What do you love about being over 40?

I love that I have learned valuable life lessons and now I feel more prepared for future events and experiences. I also have gotten to watch my son mature and enjoy every moment of him.

How do you stay fabulous?

I monitor my food and drink a collagen/probiotic that helps me from bloating which is my biggest hurdle. I take my prescriptions as I should and follow a vitamin regimen as well as trying to find something genuine to smile about even during hard times.

What would you do with the $40,000?

Unfortunately I was unemployed and ineligible for unemployment for 5 months, because of this I had to use my retirement savings and credit cards to get by while I searched for a new job. It was hard and upsetting at times, but I made it through and I would use the money to pay off the credit card debt I accumulated and get “thank you” gifts for those who helped see me through emotionally.
