What do you love about being over 40?

The comfort of being in my own home, surrounded by the pictures of the Grands and Great Grands I helped to raise. I TEACH my Grands and Greats when I am with them. Manners of course but also History, Math, Spelling and the Adventure of learning, I am therefore lucky enough to see them GROW; mentally and finding joy in the world we live in. We play and search on my computer to help them learn. Seeing the World with the excitement of Babies eyes and toddlers adventuresome play.

How do you stay fabulous?

I work on my health after dying several times, fighting off the return of cancer, dealing with the Rheumatoid Arthritis & always being dressed to go to the store, the Doctors or wherever I must go. I spend time online with my Facebook friends encouraging them not to give up whether it is the loss of a friend or family member; I try very hard to let them know that SOMEONE is listening & available. I live just on my S.S. so I cannot offer them funds but I can always be ready to listen.

What would you do with the $40,000?

First: I would pay off my house so that I can leave it to a Grandson with two small children who really needs some help right now. With any remaining to pay off my credit cards so that I leave no bills behind me and fix a couple of minor problems with my car. That list may not be Fabulous to others but it TRULY meaningful to me. THAT would make me feel like the most FABULOUS person EVER !!!
