I must really be showing my age....

because they didn't ask for this ............


When I was buying this.......

because I can't do this....

(PRECIOUS, I know :)

was it because I truly look older...... than 21?

don't you have to look over 40 for them not to card you?

When people usually guess my age they usually say 18.....once 22.

Or maybe its because they were in the cart??????

I would just like to clear the record. I don't drink. I haven't had a drink in... years. I don't even like to drink... not even socially...because I turn really...really red and its embarrassing to me and drinking is just not for me... once upon a time I did drink but not anymore.

I 've been having trouble sleeping. I have tried lots of things but nothing works... don't really want to get hooked on sleeping pills so... I decided to buy wine... a few sips will make me sleepy...right?

People always think that I am younger than I look... I have a baby face...which is good and bad.... good for when I look 60 at 80 and bad when I am 27 and a hospice patient tells me I look 12 :-/

While shopping in the alcohol department at Hy-Vee ... I didn't know what I was looking for...because I don't drink, I don't buy alcohol.....ever. So a Man that just so happened to have a taste testing boothe set up asked me what "type" I was looking for... I said " just something that will help me sleep.".... he said " ahh , twins...no wonder." my thought... "Oh buddy... actually..no, its because of other life issues.." but I just smiled and said "something sweet"... the man showed me something... let me take a tiny tiny sip and I grabbed a bottle thanked him and headed out to do the rest of my shopping.

When I get to the check out the clerk and bagger are oohing and ahhing over the girls.I have my ID out...because I figure I would need it. And I like to show it... my picture is good its when I was young, well rested, newlywed, tan, with long brown hair and nice bleached teeth... I look good... and if you were to see me now... its a far cry from what I looked like then...but I like to show my ID because I want people to see that once... I did have time to look decent. But to my shock and surprise... the clerk didn't ask for my ID! I couldn't believe it... walking out to the car I was laughing...trying to figure out if I should be offended or happy...

Does having children really age you that much??? Or is it the lack of sleep, poor diet and stress? Its a toss up, don't ya think?

I will let ya know if the wine works...wish me luck:)
