Pauley said her 40's were not the best time of her life and that her 50’s were so much better. Studies have found all over the world the 40's are the worst. Menopause and teenagers both of which appeared in her 40’s were not a good mix.<br /><br />To date my 40’s have been sort of blah, I really liked the idea of my 50’s being better. On the way home, I asked two of my co-workers, who are both in their 50’s, if Pauley’s statement rang true for them. It did not; both felt the quality of their life is worse in their fifties than it was in their 40’s. They based this on job satisfaction, financial well-being and their health. So disappointing…<br /><br />On a more positive note, I just stumbled across your blog and after reading only a couple of posts I know I’m going to be spending a lot of time here.Savvyworkinggalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08159197609419858161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9143359628205808125.post-5951641875396126032010-05-03T21:54:25.787-04:002010-05-03T21:54:25.787-04:00In our house, we're just starting into this ph...In our house, we're just starting into this phase.

Given that I fought so many battles in that arena, I am happy to be writing my silly little blog at all. There's something to be said for chugging away at earning a living and then taking time to enjoy your creative dreams later. When maybe success doesn't matter so much. And all along I wished I were writing, but now, I wonder.LPChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18209861350905135093noreply@blogger.com
