Getting Old

Kept myself occupied today with planting bulbs for spring, cleaning up around the house, cooking, etc. Didn't have a chance to feel down on myself until this evening when I inspected my face in the mirror. I suppose I don't look so bad from far away, but up close I can see all these little freckles--no, age spots--on my face that weren't there before. I can picture myself in the not so distant future, looking like an old asian lady, like many of the ladies I see at family get togethers. Doesn't help that I also consumed half a bag of kettle chips after dinner today. That was the last of them, though, so I should be safe tomorrow night. Hopefully the rain will abate enough tomorrow morning to allow me a chance to get in a good walk. Should help me feel a little better.
