Let me know if you have a favorite that I left out.
I like thinking about which celebrities are my age. Hey, wait a minute. You weren’t 40 yet, but you’re writing Aging Fabulous. Oh, OK.
I believe you forgot Madonna. Is she not 48?
Regards,
“turning 40 in 52 days, and struggling with it”
Jennifer Beals! (43), she’s still very hot
Rhea – With four kiddos, a dog, a husband of 18 years, two homes, and aging parents that I take care of, I surely qualify! Don’t you agree???
Ally – Yes, Madonna is a good one. I will add her in now. I know that she is 48 as she was born the same year as my hubby.
I guess I have you beat, as I will be 40 in 29 days
We can all celebrate together!!!
A nice addition, David. I will add Jennifer Beals in now.
Teri: Yeah, you do!
Thanks, Rhea!!!
happy early birthday!
Thanks, Amy! I won’t let anyone forget when the BIG DAY is here!!!
How about Michelle Pfeiffer? Is she not 40-something?
I wish, I could be as upbeat as you Teri. I was kind of down, when I turned 30 as well. The next day I was fine though. “ha ha”
Hey, I just turned the big 4-0 yesterday. 4/27/67. I am proud to be 40! I feel 40 but i don’t look 40….i have been told by many who don’t know my age they think or thought i was like 30, or early 30s…and last year 2 men at work were shocked when i turned 39…they were 37….and believe me they looked old…all their hard partying caught up with them and they looked a lot older than me and they thought i was late 20s.
Anyway…it’s also my baby face that makes me look younger.
Who cares about turning 40! 40 is the new 30!
Happy 40th Kim! Hooray for your positive outlook.
I totally agree that 40 is the new 30
Have a blessed year.
Happy Birthday, remember it’s just a number.
“remember it’s just a number”
So very true!!!
