Ok. Today was a reality-check day. And NOT in a good way! I go into Hanncock Fabrics, get my craft supplies, go to the checkout. According to the clerk, it is "Senior Wednesday", and I am SOOOOO lucky to come in and get my 20 percent off.....only problem....I'm not a senior. Not yet. At 54 I still want to vainly hang onto my last less-than-a-year pipe dreams! Can anyone relate to that?!

Does the combination of weight loss, lack of sleep, and worry for a husband with cancer have ANYTHING to do with this?????? More than likely. Or is it just MY TIME to cross that fine-age line (get the pun???), and jump into "discount world" often offered to seniors? Hubs' tells me I don't look my age (clearly stating I look younger), but NO ONE ELSE is in the same puddle he's swimmin' in!!!!!

So, the dilemma faces me clearly...should I take the discount offered, or DENY the discount........and pay extra for the few months of "youth" I have remaining? What would YOU do?

AUGHHHHHHHHH.

I love this thread....OK so I am 44, not yet at the age of Senior discount

I'm hopeful that I will grow older gracefully...and still be my bad ass self. The funny thing is that when I think about my mother...I see the woman I am today. She passed away at 50, so the times I remember her best was through her 40's, and I used to think she was old then. Boy was I a dumb ass teenager!!!
