Me, age 29

Here's the little doodle I did yesterday. I don't really look like this, but some days (particularly on birthdays and after a rotten day at work) this is definitely how I feel.

I'm not quite sure what I was doing with the arms, I've just realised they make absolutely no sense and the poor old lady would have to be some sort of contortionist or have fingers growing out of her forearm or something.

awww you are so young! I don't feel so old, and my daughter is 30! You have so much wonderful stuff ahead of you, so just rejoice and look forward to it all. Funny drawing.

This is hilarious!
What a proper 'odie' with attitude (and I deliberately left out the 'L' ... it's Janner talk.)

You're not ode at all Aveen ... you've got almost 10 yrs on me and I don't think I'm that old yet (well, when I ignore my eye bags!)

Hope you had a great time and trust your husband cooked up a storm for you.

Your book looks really fascinating.

Your book looks

Rejoice in each day... the best is yet to come... (from your buddy that's almost twice your age :-) )

In about 35 more years you will have caught up with me........imagine that.

Hi Aveen,
Hey, don't be so hard on yourself... I hadn't even noticed the deformity! :D Thank you SO much for your very kind words about my post and our loss. Very kind of you and I really appreciate it. xoxo, K

Ha! LOL! I was just talking with a friend about how I feel so much older than I actually am! This is a great drawing...really captures the feeling of getting older. Thank you so much for visiting and commenting on my blog.

I love the drawing:)
Don't be too serious about your age, it's all about feeling life in our veins. Cannot change days passing by, but we can still decide to enjoy them:)))

best wishes

I want to wish you a belated Happy Birthday Aveen! :D No you're not at all old... because age is just a number, and as long as you're young at heart, you can never grow old! :)
Funny drawing by the way...teehee!

...and don't forget to update your "About Me" section to make full disclosure of your age, and not be confused with a young 28-year old. Nice sketch, even for a mutant grandma.
