Neither Young Nor Old

Yesterday at MOPS they sang Happy Birthday to me -- a few weeks early. But, for all practical purposes I'm 35. I guess this is Middle Aged. That "non-specific stage in life when a person is neither young nor old, but somewhere in between." Non-specific. That's how I feel. I guess those of you who are younger or older than me would think I'm crazy. But that doesn't change the fact that no one designs jeans for a "middle aged" women with a postpartum figure that doesn't want to look like she's wearing her daughter's or her grandmother's clothes. Kjevagbolten, Norway. I came across this picture and identified with it immediately. Stuck on a rock between young and old with a lot of open air underneath.
