I have been around for a fairly long time even though I believe myself young. Well not so much now as I am noticing signs of aging. Anyway, I am not quite mid sixties so I guess older than most. You could say I am middle age if I live to be a hundred and twent-seven. I wonder what the average blogger’s age is?
I’ve been a nurse for forty two years and starting to feel a little like a dinosaur though until now I have been regarded by most as young thinking.
I have been married. I am not married now. Have two of the world’s coolest sons and two of the worlds coolest grandsons age seven and three. My daughter in law and future daughter in law are the best.
My family are friends and my friends family. All in all we have a pretty good time.

i bet u’ve seen a lot in those 40yrs of nursing relating to brain illnesses. i love your “middle age” perspective and look forward to hearing more from you. keep on.
I have seen a lot Sana as we all in health care have. You might enjoy my recounting an experience entitled Was it a Dream. It’s all true and brought God even closer to my life.
Bless you!
Chris
Hi. I am 38. Even though, for the most part, I still feel “young”, my 15yr. old is always saying, “mom, you’re old!” (Thanks son, love you too!)I have a couple of years ago, tried, haha…roller skateing, don’t know why, but I have since found out, I’m not 16 anymore!! lol…Love your blog!
I tried roller blaring at your age..helmet, skates, knee and elbow pads..all I could do was cling to a brick wall..but it was fun trying..almost tried bungee jumping ten years after that but am still working up the courage!
Thanks for the compliment and enjoying you too!
Chris
Hi Chris – if you are ‘middle aged’ at 67 then I am a dinosaur at 73. Anyway, I don’t feel dinosauric. You might be interested in reading my blog on Chronology vs Biology – http://growingyoungereachday.wordpress.com/2011/03/03.
I am glad I found your blog and will continue to read it. Keep feeding the humor, there is some in most situations.l
I read it..good post! And so true! I love what you have written and added you!
Thank you. I am a new blogger – only started on March 1 – but I love the blogging community. I have subscribed to your blog. And more and more of my day is being taken up with reading blogs. Well I could be addicted to alcohol, drugs or ……
You are very good for just having started in March! WELCOME! Maybe we can learn together!
Chris
Apologies – I said I had subscribed to your blog – meaning I was just about to do just that, but can’t find a sign up box. HELP!!
I wish I could tell you how to subscribe but being fairly new and not at all techie I don’t know. I have that problem with other sites too. Some are easy to see a subscribe button and some are not. So I brought up my site and could not find it. Geez!
Well having been a blogger for about six weeks I can tell you about widgets. On the theme you have the option of adding widgets. Go into the dashboard and then appearance. It gives you a variety of widgets one of which will be sign up or subscribe to my blog or some such.
Give it a try and then we can both reward out selves with a cup of coffee although it’s 5.10 pm so almost wine-time. And thanks again for the plug.
See? just the name widgets confuses me LOL
Oh Chris – apologies. I read somebody’s comment and thought you were 67. You are just a very young chick. What are you doing cavorting with all those old people?
Yes tou read my friend Pat Cegans comment..and really what is four years?
If you were 12 then adding 4 years would make a difference.
Hahaha it would..most definitely!
Good Sunday! It’s Andi here, from Double Dose of Special. I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for taking the time to comment on my guest post on Our Typical Life. I appreciate that you were willing to share your thoughts with me, and that my post touched you in some small way. Please come over and visit me on my blog anytime.

Thanks Andi ..have. checked yours out and will be back!
hello to you and thankyou for subscribing to my blog and reading my poetry its most kind of you and apreciated .
You’re welcome!
I’m heading rapidly for 60. Only feel old when I ache and my memory is playing up (which actually is a lot of the time!) Most bloggers… I think younger people are using Facebook and Twitter more, and older folks like us are blogging.
Since I am staying here for the week have missed my daily swims and that makes the aches worse..There are quite a selection of some of the younger group that actively use twitter and face book. I don’t know where people find time to twitter..it seems like it would take a lot of time…all about energy I guess…and I sure have less now than I used to LOL
It’s nice to know that 63-64 is middle age. That means at 52 I’m still a youngster. lol! I’ve been looking around and enjoying your blog today. Thank you for visiting my blog so I could return the visit.
You are a youngster Robin! 52 was such a good year sigh!
And so long ago!
Hello chris again i saw you had been back again to view my poems and thought i would say hello and few words which i thought might be nice to. your not old and your not a dinosaw or however you worded it on this page and bieng divorced your only as old as the person you share your life so that means your young fit at a fiddle and inteligent as you spend your time reading kathy reichs books and you have good sesne of humour to and your photo shows your nice person. hope that makes your day as you have gathered i read your about you page take care from kevin.
I enjoy your site very much..a couple more weeks and I will be all moved and can savor my blog reading time more! Yes I am very young for my age..which makes it difficult to meet anyone with partner potential….good thing I get along well with me
Chris
Just popping by to say hello. Haven’t been around much, so I’m catching up on all my favourite blogs. Just popped your RSS feed into my reader, so now I can get your posts straightaway. Hope you’re really well.
I am glad you checked back in..it has been awhile and the summer has been a little crazy so it has been hard to stay in touch..I am looking forward to reading more of you. I move tomorrow to another city although it is just as bad moving 50 feet as 50 miles! Next week I will catch up more. Welcome back! Started the day by sleeping in but most is done..now just have a few small things and try to clean up the just nuked look. Wanted to take a minute to answer comments and thank you for reading! Okay am procrastinating..but what a pleasant way to do it!
Chris, I lost you for a while and realized I wasn’t getting notified of your posts, so I just signed up again! Hope you are well my friend.
I am so glad you did Barb, I noticed awhile back that I had lost some of my people too so am glad I can confirm you again!
I nominate your blog for this award
