Having a mid-life crisis? Halfway through your life and wishing you’d done everything differently? Maybe you’re sick of society telling you need to act and look younger – you’re at peace with your age and just wish that everybody else was, too! Maybe you’re pissed off that you’ve done everything right and played by the rules, but now you’re on the downside and wondering if that’s all there is?
Maybe you’ve been working so hard that you don’t really have a life, or any friends, and you’re beginning to fear that one day, maybe soon, you’re going to need them. Maybe you’re wondering what your next reinvention should be?
Does any of this sound familiar? Let me help. I’ll bring you helpful, thoughtful, inspiring, funny, or informative posts that will make you feel that you’re not alone. Together we’ll examine these and every other issue on the minds and in the hearts of Boomer Women. New blogs every 2-5 days, nothing too long – I know you’re probably multitasking like crazy. Best wishes, and hang in there!
Hi Lynne,
I started writing mysteries at 53. I just turned 59 and have never been more passionate about a project or life. Keep spreading the word about how great the second half can be!
Jean, thanks so much for the encouragement! I went to your website at http://www.JeanSheldon.com and it looks very interesting. I’m going to go back now and watch the interview. Hope you’ll drop by again.
I love reading your blog! xo
Hello there. I turned 50, quit my corporate job of 25 years and am contemplating my next half of my life. Nice website. I will write more later but I am glad I caught your post on HUFFPO today.

It sounds as if we are kindred spirits. I am one year older and my granddaughter is 19 months old. Ever since the day she was born I have been on cloud nine. Since before she was born she has made my heart race. Just a few hours before she would’ve entered the world the old fashioned way she decided to poke her little arm out first and within minutes, she joined us thanks to a super quick C-Section. From that day to this when I think of her tears come to my eyes. What a blessed miracle. Oh, and the writing…when I’m not writing at my computer, I am writing in my head…sometimes I think it is a curse. I have enjoyed reading your blog…I plan to subscribe. Here’s to grandmothers and writers!
Good to “meet” you, too, Grace. I subscribed to your blog, too, and I’m looking forward to your posts. Best wishes, Grammy!
