a person can wonder if #umphreysmcgee is waking up this morning and sayin, wow, sure glad we parachuted into Bonnaroo last night for the kids?

Midlife is actually 40 yo

#life #Midlife

When older people say, "Enjoy them while they're young," they’re talking about your knees and hips. #ageing #humour #funny #truth #Midlife

Passend zu meiner gelegentlich empfundenen Midlife-Crisis stelle ich fest, dass es gar nicht so wenig Menschen gibt, die mit mir einst zu Schule gingen, die längst das zweite Mal verheiratet oder sogar geschieden sind...

Also: Was sollte Mann in seiner #Midlife-Crises so anstellen? Was haben #Mann und #Frau in Eurem Umfeld so um die vermutete #Lebensmitte herum angestellt? Was habt ihr so getan?

Gerne RT

“The past few years have been a really challenging time to be a caring, thinking person, let alone a caring, thinking person at midlife. Not only have we been living through a series of interconnected crises (climate change, political and social upheaval, and, of course, a global pandemic): those of us at midlife have been dealing with all the garden-variety #midlife challenges at the same time.

This was entertaining and thought-provoking. I’m holding on to it for another read. #nonfiction #midlife #middleage #pameladruckerman #humor #memoir #books #reading

The good news about #midlife is that the glass is still half full. Of course, the bad #news is that it won't be long before your #teeth are floating in it.

After avoiding for a long time, got a mechanical keyboard (Epomaker TH80). Liking the feel of it.

“A funny thing happens when we arrive at midlife. Our time perception flips. Instead of focusing on how many years we’ve lived through, we start thinking about how many years we have left. It’s almost as if a lightbulb goes off in our heads, forcing us to admit to ourselves—perhaps for the very first time—that none of us has endless time. The question then becomes: ‘How do I want to spend that time?’”
- From my latest blog post for Psychology Today.

My #PsychologyToday blog ("Midlife Reimagined") went live earlier today. In my first post, I wrote about what I learned by interviewing more than 100 midlife women about their lives.

The interviews were part of the research for my book NAVIGATING THE MESSY MIDDLE: A FIERCELY HONEST AND WILDLY ENCOURAGING GUIDE FOR MIDLIFE WOMEN (which was published in Canada last fall and will be published in the US/UK on March 28, 2023).
