Glowe, 75

I am a single 60-yr-old, very active woman, mother of three long-grown children, grandmother of six, who tells everyone that grandkids are neater than real kids. Actually I have been very blessed that my children have always been "good kids" -- no run-ins with law enforcement and no drug activity to my knowledge, so I have been spared those heartaches, and I am truly thankful. My kids all live down state now, so not able to visit as often as we would like.

Every morning I wake up unable to believe I am 60 years old. I feel like I'm still just one of the kids in the neighborhood. I have always enjoyed perfect health and have been very active, doing a lot of yard work and home improvement-type projects that many women do not attempt. I am now making an increased effort to remain fit and active at my "advanced age".

I am two-years single after a 19 yr marriage that I thought was for good, and I was devastated by the breakup. Now I am trying to get back into the swing of things because I still believe in always and forever.
