Hello subscribers! I apologize for being away so long. I was unfortunately in the “life gets in the way” phase. I’m glad to be back and share with you a very interesting essay.
I don’t know exactly when it hits most women, but there will be a time when we notice we are aging. In our forty’s we are often standing in a drug store deciding which reading glasses we need. In our fifties usually brings menopause and applications for AARP. Most of us feel that we’ve definitely crossed over to the “time left” from the “time spent” stage of our lives when we think of retirement and receive all those offers for Medicare supplemental insurance.
And, sometimes it is much smaller things that cause us to see ourselves as aging. Our feature author, Mara Lefebvre, offers an entertaining and honest take on aging in her essay: “Briefs”.
