Welcome To Fifty Five Is The New!

Hello out there!
What's it to you, turning the age of Fifty-five? You don't have to be turning it tomorrow, you could have already turned that corner a while back. That part doesn't matter so much.
While it's important what one feels, what matters most of all that one feels, that one feels anything at all.
So, as an exercise in self-examination and a way of getting over an incredible writer's block, I submit this blog to the World Wide Web, and I submit myself to a bit of mirror gazing.
Inspired by the movie "Julie & Julia," I will blog for one year, which will include my turning fifty-five, and see what I find.
Who knows? Maybe fifty-five will be something fantastic...like the New Me.

Puberty at Fifty Five


Who am I today? Old or young? Active or passive? Don't know. Can't put my finger on it. Caught between being satisfied with life and wondering what the hell I did with it! Is there an age comparison to this?

Fifty five feels like the weather today, sunny and stormy....windy and mild...everything all rolled into one. Topsy-turvy, tutti-fruitti...like puberty without the satisfaction of a well earned giggle.
For me that started around age 11...everything happened all at once. Flat chested tom boy when I went to sleep, well endowed and womanly when I woke up. Talk about confusion. Okay, well maybe today's not that bad...at least I don't have to deal with that mess anymore!

So for today, Fifty Five is the new whatever it is....because like puberty it's too much of a mystery and, for right now at any rate, can't get over with soon enough!
