Dear Gabby
Welcome back to the Dear Gabby advice column. In the USA, we commemorate the Declaration of Independence in July! I must say…I find it very irresponsible whoever is in charge of national celebrations selected July 3rd for National Eat Beans Day with all the fireworks on July 4th! Drop me a line to Dear Gabby at PostcardsLive.com if you have any independence or dependence issues, and I will give you advice on life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
DEAR GABBY
I am a middle-aged female, and things are starting to change on my body. I haven’t changed anything I’m doing, but “things” seem to be shifting, ever so slowly, like they think I won’t notice. Is this normal and/or reversible? SHIFTY
DEAR SHIFTY
As we say in East Texas, “You ain’t seen nothin’ yet!” Getting older is just one body part after another saying, “Ha Ha, you think that’s bad? Watch this!”
Normal? Yes. Reversible? No. When I was very young, I wanted to be older. This is not what I expected! Mirrors don’t lie, and (lucky for me) they don’t laugh.
CONFIDENTIAL TO “GO FUND ME”: When we were kids, GO FUND ME was called hauling hay.
