Time is breezing by....it's almost 2011! Has it really been that long since I started this blog?
Good to note that I've kept with it thus far, and for me that is some kind of a record. Sure shows me what I'm capable of....no more excuses. No more saying I don't have the concentration skills...it's all bull, and I've just been lazy.
That's a hard thing to admit to....but it's decidedly true. I wonder how many real golden opportunities I ignored or pushed aside? Hmmmmm.
A person could do irreparable psychological harm to themselves, going over every stinking little thing. So nope. Not even gonna go there. Whatever happened, so be it. I made my choices and took my chances and am here....now. What happened back then is gone, and what's up ahead is up to me.
So for today, Fifty Five Is The New Moment....now.
When I was heading toward my Double Nickel Birthday in April 2009, the age 55 seems to be a lot of things. In this blog I will chronicle my thoughts about 55 Is The New, for the year beginning December 2009 because...well...that's when I felt like starting the blog. The entries will include that important day, my actual Fifty-Fifth birthday on April 14, 2010 and will continue for my entire fifty fifth year, concluding on April 14, 2011.

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.
