I  have to agree with Debbi again (you're really on a roll tonight) that age is just a state of mind.  Sometimes I'm very surprised when I look in the mirror because I feel so much younger.  My kids know which side the bread is buttered on.  They always tell me  how young I look compared to their friends mothers, most of whom are years younger than me, although in more than a few cases it is true.  My younger daughter even went as far as saying her best friend's mom looks scary without makeup, but I don't.  I think that's because the other mother always wears makeup and I don't always wear it though.  Although now that I think about it,  I've never seen her without makeup, maybe she does look scary!

Jan - You look at least 100 years younger than you feel even if it is only a sometimes thing.

Lori do you at your young age of 116 take picture on just that side so you look younger?  Just wondering.  ;) 16

Yes, sadly that has become my "good" side.  I can't smile, but at least I look like a grouchy YOUNG person!    And I never have to worry about that eye being caught in mid-blink when the picture is taken!   ;)
