51. Self confident and happy?
you must be joking. :rofl: I rarely wear makeup and when I do, I feel like a freakin' clown. No one looks twice at me anyway. No really, they don't, believe me. I don't live where I grew up so I don't have that "running into HS acquaintances" thing to worry about here. I've become one of those invisible middle-aged moms of suburbia, easy to miss. We all look alike.

But what I've learned is that even those who we perceive as "put together" and self-confident, probably really are not inside. We all have our own issues that are not apparent to the outside world. If you saw me at the grocery store, perhaps you would never guess the internal struggles going on inside.
