A wee bit rusty round the edges

~ Alba

I actually joined a different Zumba class a couple of weeks ago – it was a Zumba Gold class which means less jumping but it’s still a good workout and loads of fun. I think I’m probably the youngest in the class, which although is good for my ego also makes me realise how fit and fun all these older women (and one man) are! They are having a blast, whooping at all the songs, singing, dancing, living life to the full and enjoying every minute of life. I looked at them an realised that it isn’t so bad after all this getting older lark.

Confession time…. I have a big birthday coming up at the beginning of May. What??? I hear you ask! But you sound SO young! Well I know that age is only a number and as Janis Joplin said “the older the grape, the sweeter the wine.”

Like me this car has seen better days, is a bit rusty round the edges and could do with a wee bit of TLC….

  1. You don’t get body work like that on a younger model, great curves, good pair of headlights. OK the ball joints have had it, but they can be replaced!
    P.S. Janis Joplin die at 27, what did she know. My eldest is 22 now and I have spent those years watching them grow up not noticing myself grow old. So in my head I’m still 27, try it it works.

    1. Haha…. You just made my day (but it’s only 10am so you know… 😉 )
      In my head I’m still a young thing but having a 21yr old and an 18 yr old gives me away.
      Plus I can no longer tell people I’m in my 30s…… 😉
      What? Thirty-nineteen is in your thirties!!!

          1. Oh dear …. you’re older than me!!! By three months.
            Some of the best people I know were born in’66, could be why we look on things the same way. Have a happy birthday, and don’t think about the number.

              Remember that comment about you making my day? Well it’s getting deleted now :p
              Mind you… In dog years you’d be 343, so I guess I don’t feel so bad now. Ok comment can stay 😉
