Sixty Is The New Forty ~ thank's to Christie Brinkley

http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20780764,00.html

 Sixty is the new forty at least for this woman!

Christie Brinkley turns 60 and poses in her bathing suit on the cover of People magazine!

I sing praises to Christie Brinkley and commend her on staying healthy and fit. She is just gorgeous at sixty. Just as the old saying goes "age is just a number", well yes it is. Most woman at forty years of age are taking care of kids and working probably leaving little time to themselves. Having raised two kids myself I can agree that when a woman reaches sixty and has kept herself in shape, and has a healthy diet the world is seen through different eyes. When I was forty I was running around taking care of everyone else, before myself, but don't get me wrong I loved it. I loved caring for my family and my kids. As a stay at home mom I spent twenty-years devoting my time to my family. I did it by choice. But I can't deny that I love where I'm at in my life now, and feel healthier than I did ten years ago. Why, because I have more time for me than I did when I was raising two kids. Christie has always been know for her commitment to health and fitness. She works out at the gym daily, runs, loves skiing, and sailing. She's been a vegetarian since she was a teen. Her healthy habits and positive attitude show on her face and body. Thank you, Christie for being a healthy, happy role model for woman of every age, but especially for making a statement that woman can make a choice to be healthy and fit and rock the cover of a magazine in her swimsuit at 60!

Cabin Time

     Welcome to the cabin where I write. This is the rocking chair on the front porch. The back of the cabin has balcony with a porch swing overlooking a beautiful view of nature, where I do most of my writing. It's so high up that I'm looking at the top of the trees watching the birds while the wind blows the leaves while the birds chirp. This backdrop is stimulating and sets the tone for thoughts to come to my mind as I write. This is not where I wrote Turtle Shells my first book but I'm writing the sequel Sunrise Over Ponte Vedra Beach mostly from this cabin.

     My next book the sequel is a story about moving on in life.  And that by moving forward we can grow and build new dreams.

     Dreams are what keep us moving forward to create the life we want. We are not defined by our past, but instead we create the life we want by putting one foot in front of the other. We can get to where we want to go...one step at a time. You will find that your dream is just around the bend...

Come with me because the sun comes out again ~ and Dreams become reality if you believe!  Bunny
