It sneaks up on you: the sagging skin, thickening waistline, unwelcome new diagnoses, and first-thing-in-the-morning shock of seeing your once-youthful face in the mirror as you move into the second half of your life.
My husband and I saw the new biopic abut Bob Dylan "A Complete Unknown" yesterday. For boomers like ourselves it was great to hear a replay of some of the soundtrack of youth/coming-of-age years. Interesting tidbits about the political controversy of folk music lyrics and Dylan's relationship with Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger. J Blake, AZ
My husband and I saw it on Christmas Eve day, and loved it. I hope Edward Norton and Timothee Chalamet both receive Oscar nods for this one! - Michelle

Carole, this is lovely. You speak so clearly to the pressure of shame so many of us aging women feel in a new way. Thank you!
