50 is only a number

Today I'm starting my first blog.  I am approaching my 50th birthday.  It doesn't seem like I've been walking on this earth for that many years.  But, my mom always told me "it's only a number," and I truly believe that.  Guess I got tired of hearing about surveys that tell you what you should and shouldn't be, wear, do, etc., etc. at certain ages.  I think my mom was right.  It's all in your attitude, how you take care of yourself and your outlook to life.  In my blog, I will begin sharing what has helped me stay fit, healthy and optimistic through many challenges.  Hope you will join me.
