What do you love about being over 40?

Well being over 40 means a lot of different things to me. I’m more mature. I’m more wiser. I make better decisions than I would when I was in my 20s or 30s I have a sense of independence in my life now that I cherish I’ve been through some struggles that I’ve overcome and losing my sight in my right eye, has given me a different perspective in life and how to enjoy each day.

How do you stay fabulous?

How do I stay fabulous well being fabulous for me is like a lifestyle. Every day thing I get up I take care of myself. I put on my best face and I attend to my errands and go to my appointments and make the best day that I possibly can. I enjoy each day specially during the daytime because at night I can’t see so I don’t really go out, but I enjoy the daytime to the fullest. That’s what makes me so fabulous is that I get up and I keep pushing through blind in all.

What would you do with the $40,000?

What would I do with the $40,000 well for starters I would start by getting this new treatment for my left eye which is now kind of getting thinner and my site is a little blurry in that one now so I would concentrate on getting some new medication or treatment that my insurance does not pay forand pay for it and see if my vision can be improved. Second thing I would do is get a place somewhere warm I can go to when it’s winter time here third thing I would do is donate to a charity of my heart.
