That mustache thing he had going on just wasn't doing it nor were the five long hairs he had growing out of his chin.Jasonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03320251504885923411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18652393.post-87351229565996047862008-01-05T08:28:00.000-07:002008-01-05T08:28:00.000-07:00yeah, I remember mentioning to Chelsey that I foun...yeah, I remember mentioning to Chelsey that I found a gray hair and she was like, "You have gray hair?

That way you never really notice! I only put highlights in my hair every so often, but it seems to be helping to hide the grey.

I unfortunately have the bad back and knees though. And well, I'm not even going to start with weight...Chelsey and Michelle can just go jump in a lake as far as I'm concerned! The two skinny girls are talking about how hard it is to keep the weight off...ha ha ha. <BR/>But seriously, don't you all think it makes you feel old at the fact that our youngest sister is dating and driving!!

For a while I was just pulling them out. They were scattered all around, but mostly in the scalp. Well I've decided if I keep doing this I'll be bald soon so I better now pull out any more grey hairs, it's time to color. That makes me feel old. And the fact that I put on weight so much easier than take it off. I have to work out so much just to stay smaller, but I'm still not really small. I'm 144 presently and for my height I should be around 125-135. You'd think as a fitness instructor I'd be able to take off the weight, but age and diet have stuff to do with that and Chelsey's right, it doesn't just come off easy anymore. Caleb in seminary makes me feel ancient. My baby, the last child (at least we think he's the last) is in Kindergarten. I remember when Caleb was entering Kindergarten and now Scott is gone and there's no one home. Alyssa getting baptized this summer. It's amazing how time flies. Enjoy those special moments. Tomorrow I'm taking Alyssa ice skating.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02280368123968990873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18652393.post-48606049928827402242008-01-04T12:09:00.000-07:002008-01-04T12:09:00.000-07:00It makes me feel old to think that I have a nephew...It makes me feel old to think that I have a nephew that goes to seminary. Yikes. It seems like I was in seminary just a few short years ago. Especially when some of my religion courses at BYU were as easy as my seminary classes. (Of course, others were so difficult I feel like an idiot when I struggle to get a B in my Book of Mormon class.)Jess and Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00080357342564530002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18652393.post-18970141597855408422008-01-04T12:04:00.000-07:002008-01-04T12:04:00.000-07:00Jason,You are just where you deserve to be -- I th...Jason,<BR/>You are just where you deserve to be -- I think I remember a girl with the last name of Strange who wouldn't stop calling you.... :)<BR/>You're not old, you're just deserving.<BR/>Mom - the oldest of you all.Papa Dochttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03337270060077559317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18652393.post-63162960503497776932008-01-04T11:23:00.000-07:002008-01-04T11:23:00.000-07:00Old?

I actually have to keep really active now! <BR/><BR/>Also, the fact that we really have to address the issue of Social Security. It won't be there when we need it -- at least we can't count on the help. Retirement will come faster than we think. It's sobering to have to think about it all so much now at our ages.

Having three kids when my 35 yr. old co-workers barely have 1. Talking to missionaries who talk about their "old" brothers, I say "How old are they?" and they respond "Oh, like 30." <BR/><BR/>Boy, based on these criteria, Jason must feel <I>real</I> old.
