1. Letting go and moving on. Pathetic as it is, some 49 year old women still have school girl fantasies. Time to give that up. Everything from "I'm gonna wear those jeans again" to having the perfect house to going on "The Amazing Race" with Betsy is included here.
2. Letting go's first cousin: Getting over yourself. That is to say, forget the face lift, tummy tuck, lipo dreams. The parts are dropping and gravity wins. Acceptance is the key. As someone once said, I earned every one of these wrinkles. They represent a memory, a laugh, a piece of wisdom.
3. Maybe if I'm really lucky, menopause.
4. 50 is the new 50. I read that in a magazine and thought it was so cool.
It's kind of like a new freedom. I can just care a little bit less.

Your 50 sounds remarkable. But I think 48 is the new 50.
