Have a great time turning 50! Celebrate it at least once a month this year. It won't happen again. I hope you get to take a trip, be with people you love, and do something creative and fun. All the best.

I was okay with turning 50 until the hot flashes started.... and everything that comes with them...

I worried for years ahead of time about turning 50 and I've actually turned completely around on it. I love being 50. I'm comfortable with who I am and for the first time in my life I have the freedom and the means to live the way I want to not the way I should, have or need to. It's nice to be out from everyone else's expectations.

I totally need to be more organized at home. But after a long day at work, I am quite lazy when I get home. As such, I don't exercise either and I really need to lose weight.

Maybe you should celebrate your 50th at a spa. Do whatever you want, and only what you want, with a great mani/pedi and dewy complexion.

I think you will have a lovely time of turning 50! Do something really special for it! And, I'll join you in the physical and mental decluttering job!
