Getting Old: The Truth at 64

 

Dear friends. I'm almost 64, a memorable age thanks to "Vera, Chuck and Dave"  (courtesy of The Beatles)*

We see a lot of clickbait telling us what women over 50 shouldn't wear. We see a lot of famous older women camouflaging their age, as if it's something to be ashamed of, thanks to cosmetic surgery and tweakments. 

But one of the things that rarely gets discussed is how we feel about ageing.  

I'm doing precisely that today.
