I am now a coupon clipper.
I recently started volunteering in Austin a few days a week. The drive in and out of Austin is long and boring, so today I went to the library and asked where to find the books on tape. "Oh, we don't have books on tape," the librarian told me. "Do you want books on cds?"
When I told my girl A that my husband was entering a photo contest with a cash prize, she replied, "Cool. What are the tax consequences if he wins?" To be fair, my girl A works in tax. Then my husband actually *won* the contest. I called a law school friend to share the good news. "Great!" she said. "What are the tax consequences?"
Yesterday at a cooking class (yes, I go to cooking classes now), a Sun City retiree sitting next to me (yes, these are my peeps now) couldn't fathom the relationship between me and my mom. She guessed that we were within 10 years of each other. This may say more about my beautiful mom than it does about me, but c'mon!

Love this post!! I, too, am getting old - though the evidence on me - are the grey hairs that keep popping up! Fortunately for you - you have gorgeous locks and that will not ever happen to you :)
