Thanks Terry. I do it numerous times in a row. I do them all but concentrate on the animals & the rain forest.

Hi Guys,

Since today may be a slow day...everyone is busy cooking and getting ready for tomorrow. I thought I would tell a funny story.

Just thought I would share a very funny story about turning 50, (well at the time it wasn't so funny)...... When I turned 50 this year lets just say it was not one of my happier birthdays. ...... I felt very old and it was very hard to get the words out, 50 just sounded old... Well I was just starting to get over it ( I guess I had no choice in the matter) that is until a couple months after my 50th birthday....I had to take my son Michael to the doctors for an MRI, he injured his knee playing baseball...and you remember ladies when the kids were young and we had to take them for an Xray or MRI and the nurse would always ask us if there was any chance that we might be pregnant...and as we got older maybe in our 40's sometimes being asked that question was like "wow you think I can still be pregnant at this age" right, come on girls I know you all felt that way at some time or another..... Well when I took my son for his MRI the nurse (who was probably 18 or 19) was giving my son instructions and then asked if I would like to come in with him, so I said yes and I guess I was waiting to hear the famous question about being pregnant (I guess 50 really didn’t sink in yet) lol lol, and to my surprise do you know what the little bitch asked me....she wanted to know if I had a f*****g PACEMAKER. Well needless to say my son almost fell off the table with laughter and I didn’t know whether to laugh, slap the bitch or vomit. My head was spinning and all I could think about is “are you kidding me”. When did I go from people thinking I was young enough to be pregnant…to people thinking I was old enough to have a pacemaker. Well I guess the girl saw the expression on my face and at this point I thought we would be taking her out on a stretcher…by now she was probably more flustered than I was (did you ever notice those Jersey girls, their voices are always 5 octaves higher than ours), well by now she was talking about 10 octaves higher and rambling on about how her boyfriend’s father just had a heart attach and he had to have a pacemaker put in and he was only 47, so now she just asks all her patients that question. So by now I felt sorry for the girl, so I try to explain that I just turned 50…blah blah blah (like she really gave a shit) and how I just felt old, and her question just threw me. I left there feeling so old and told my son the next time he needs an MRI he can go his frigg’n self . lol lol lol

Just thought I would share this story. I am still trying to accept being 50, even though before you know it I will be 51………YIKES!!………. and as long as I don't have to hear these stupid remarks I guess I will be ok..............

All kidding aside I know most of us don’t like the idea of aging, but think of the alternative. Some people don’t even make it to our age. So I will handle the 50’s like a big girl…… I promise… Judy
