jane

jane fonda is 73? no way! 
the year-1982
the workout-jane fonda

this was before we even owned a vcr. i had the famous workout on a cd. now make sure you read this correctly...a cd...the workout was on a cd -played in a cd player.

i think i used my wonderful library card, checked out her book and cd, and the obsession began.

wow, i knew that workout so well...it was "burned" in my memory...and still is. 
jane...we 80's moms loved you, and still do.

october 30, 2010, are you kidding? it's as if i've been sleeping (beauty, yeah right) for the last 35 years and suddenly awoke today! where are you winter, spring, summer of 2010? gone forever. time is passing, and it's passing quickly.

it has been a great month. even thought i hardly saw it coming or going. picnic at fort loudoun, great birthday weekend. good time this weekend with new friends. nothing like being around the fun, the young and the energy filled!

for debbie jo "100 years"

I'm 15 for a moment
Caught in between 10 and 20
And I'm just dreaming
Counting the ways to where you are
I'm 22 for a moment
She feels better than ever
And we're on fire
Making our way back from Mars
15 there's still time for you
Time to buy and time to lose
15, there's never a wish better than this
When you only got 100 years to live
I'm 33 for a moment
Still the man, but you see I'm a they
A kid on the way
A family on my mind
I'm 45 for a moment
The sea is high
And I'm heading into a crisis
Chasing the years of my life
15 there's still time for you
Time to buy, Time to lose yourself
Within a morning star
15 I'm all right with you
15, there's never a wish better than this
When you only got 100 years to live
Half time goes by
Suddenly you’re wise
Another blink of an eye
67 is gone
The sun is getting high
We're moving on...
I'm 99 for a moment
Dying for just another moment
And I'm just dreaming
Counting the ways to where you are
15 there's still time for you
22 I feel her too
33 you’re on your way
Every day's a new day...
15 there's still time for you
Time to buy and time to choose
Hey 15, there's never a wish better than this
When you only got 100 years to live
