You'll Never See Me In The Front

Fifty Is A Big Corner To Turn. It Used To Mean Being Put Out To Pasture, But It's The Opposite With Me. I Feel More Vibrant; I'm More Active Than I've Ever Been. The F-word Really Is Freedom. It's The Freedom To Have Dropped The Rock-the Rock Of Addiction, Of Family, Of Comparisons With Other People. It's Being Fit And Focused And Kind Of Furious.

If I'm Honest I Don't Think The World Would Miss Me If I Never Acted Again.

My Husband Once Said He'd Never Met Anybody Who Walked So Fast And Ran So Slowly. As I Said, It's A Little Hard For Me To Try New Things, And This Was Me Facing A Fear That I'd Had My Whole Life. Since I Had No Experience Running, I Felt Like A Failure Before I'd Even Begun.

My Life Is So Filled With My Children, My Family, And The Charitable Work I Do.

My Mom Said I Was A Handful. Now I'm Helpful.
