I am now in a wonderful, 6-year relationship with a terrific man & am having the time of my life.

80 might bother me, but so far none of the other decades have. 40 rocks - enjoy it!
Wow IFJane, we have almost identical life paths! I did the same changes at 45, and now I'm almost 53 and have never been happier...or more fit.
I feel way better in EVERY way at 52 than I did at 42....or 32....or even at 22! My new goal is to be still healthy and active at 82.
