There's Life In the Old Girl Yet

I've had a good life, been a good wife My kids didn't turn out to be junkies I've tried the new trends, made a lot of good friends And put up with some weirdoes and flunkies I was considered to be...or so they all told me A pretty hot chick in my day Although the years fly too fast, I don't live in the past Just ask and I'll come out to play I fuss with my make-up I just like to shake up My peers who think I'm too bold Forget Father Time...I'm in my prime And I just refuse to grow old!

Thanks Sarah...Since we can't hold back the aging clock...we might as well make the most of the minutes/hours we have left by LIVING life...not counting the number of tick toks we have left! Bea
