By the time you read this post, it will be my birthday. It
occurred to me lately, that my life has turned a corner in the last year or so:
I’m officially a crone now. And I have to admit that I’m liking it a lot. In
part that’s because I’m a grandmother (I love spending time with my eleven-month-old
grandson). In part it’s because I’m physically feeling better now than I have
in a long while (thanks to a year of yoga and a much “greener” diet). And, in
part, it’s because I finally feel like I’m getting a handle on this whole LIFE
thing.
Yeah, I know. I’m a slow learner. Don’t judge me. lol
The weirdest thing of all is how I don’t feel old. Ten years ago I did. I actually
freaked out when it hit me that I was really on the
downhill side of life. So I assumed I'd feel even more panicked now…but,
nope. If anything, I’m feeling kind of Zen about the future. As Bob Dylan put it: “I was so much older
then, I’m younger than that now.”
I think act three is gonna be epic.
Anyway, I feel like celebrating, so I put together a little
giveaway. I’m going to give away some books. How many? Well, I don’t know. I
guess it will kind of depend on how many people enter. To enter, sign in at
Rafflecopter and leave a comment below telling me which book from my backlist
you’d like to receive. Digital only, sorry.
Backlist can be

I LOVE your post - I'm in the same act and having those unexpected Zen feelings too. Happy Birthday and here's to the epic times ahead!
