Catch up time

Funny saying I saw on a bumper sticker.

        If I passed you on the right it's because you're in the wrong lane.

I joined Face Book, head over and look me up.

Growing old is mandatory, growing up is optional.

Feeling Old?
Power Lifting Grandma

  Meet Winifred Pristell.  70 years old.  A great grandmother.  And current world record holder in the sport of powerlifting
  Winifred first took up the sport in her late 40’s due to her struggles with her weight.  When she turned 60 she started to lift competitively in powerlifting meets.  At 68, she set world records for her age in the bench press at 176.2 pounds and 270 pounds in the deadlift.
  Even though she has been struggling lately with arthritis and joint issues, at 70 Winifred still works out three days a week.  Next time you feel down on yourself for feeling "old," let her story be an inspiration.
