And I want to moan. I'm sitting here with a shitty cold and feeling distinctly miserable.

ds is watching crappy Derren whatsisname which is boring and dd is asleep.

What happened to my life?

I think I am usual.

I'm 50 today. Funnily enough I don't mind being 50. I didn't mind being 40 either.

My mum says 80 is the difficult one, because you might not make 90 and if your body does your brain won't and vice versa.

A cheerful bod is my mum Grin

You gave me too much Wine earlier. I've nearly finished the bottle and it doesn't mix well with Nurofen Cold and Flu Blush

Well look on the bright side. You're not as old as me and whilst I might not have a cold I have got the most frightful flatulence, I'm banished to the kitchen and nobody wants to be my friend!

I decided last birthday that there wasn't a chance of me growing older gracefully feck it I'm going down kicking and screaming with a large glass of red in my hand. In my head I am forever young Blush.

Happy Birthday Wine

Self-indulgent, attention-seeking threads are obviously the way to go Grin

My typing is getting a tad wobbly. I wonder if I'm pissed [ponders]. I suspect I might be.

You're not as old as me!

Fwiw, I felt very old when I hit 50, but once I'd got past that milestone, age began to matter less. I'm now 56 and still feel the same age as I did 6 years ago (but then I've been on Mumsnet ever since 2006, so maybe time has stood still....)
