I turn 60 in a few weeks. In my mind that doesn’t seem possible!

I'll be ^! this fall. Last year's birthday was a tough one, but I've come to terms with it and have moved on. No time to mope; I have things to do and places to see!

I became 77 a week ago.

I am 73 and it hurts my soul to admit that.

54 on the outside, much younger on the inside ;o)

I think we may all share this perception - there are people in their 40s who are old in their appearance, actions, preferences and/or attitudes and people in their 70s plus who are young by the same measures. Staying young doesn't mean dressing or acting age inappropriately, I think it's much more about one's attitudes and outlook on life.

Another 59-year-old. How did that happen??

I still can't believe I'm 70.

I’m 72 but I feel younger. I am encouraged by those of you in your 80 s and 90s. We are Seenagers!

and yet another 59 y/old. Been here about 20 years.

I'm 74...been here for many years, although I seldom post! Have enjoyed aging with all of you!!

will be 68 on January 3 been on here since 2000

My husband turned 73 yesterday. I will be 73 in October.

I’m 71. Joined when I was 53. That’s 18 years here!!

I don't remember exactly when I joined, but I remember Hot Topics as pretty quiet except for a month or two around a major election. So it's been a while, lol.

Hi, I'm 47 or 74 ----> :): you decide!

I will be 75 in Dec.

I'm 66 but in my head I'm 29 and plan on staying that age even when I'm seniorgals age. She is my cyberhero.

I turn 71 in August. Been here since the first day.

I hope I stay as able and healthy as my dh. He is 84, We had a storm last week, he replaced the shingles that were torn off himself. We go dancing between 1 and 4 times a week, depending on if we can find a band that plays either country or 50's and 60's music. He is one of the most active people I now.

Right there with you, Joan. Been here 23 plus years.

THANKS to all that participate in age sharing.

Someone usually does the age averaging when the thread slows down.

I'll be 59 in abt 2 weeks. Ive been here somewhere around 20 years.

I am 65, will be birthdaying shortly. I have been here forever but with more than one user name so I can't remember exactly when I started. (it was thathomesite tho that much I know. ).

Lots of us in the 70"s decade. I'm 73. Glenda, enjoy starting a new decade for you!

I am 71...I was 50 or 51 when I started at KT!

64

I’m 70 and have been here off and on since the mid90’s.

I'm 76, which sounded a lot older than 75 to me for some reason. But I try not to think about that. I'm guessing I came to GardenWeb 16 years ago, give or take a year.

58 years young

Let's see who wants to do the age averaging? Always interesting. I bet it's the 70's, eh?

60 and I’ve been here since 2007! Time sure does fly when you’re having fun!!

67 at next birthday and I have been here since about 1999 or so.

I'll be 59 in a couple of months and have been on GW since '99-2000.

This being shortly after midnight on 29 July, if I wait until tomorrow I can claim to be 90.5.

Been here about 20 years plus, I think. I was here for a time when Spike was the operator - got sent to Disney occasionally, and it took me a while to become aware that he was doing it, due to my having broken the rules!

ole joyful

I'm 68.

Ok, I've averaged it to here, using actual ages, not "I'll be" ages. The average is 67.1. There are 69 people, and the collective age is 4630.

And I had to ask DH what number is ^!. My tablet keyboard doesn't have symbols over the numbers. And I left off nickel_kg, who seems to count in dog years, so is either 60, 20, or 110.

:-)

I’ll be 62 next week. Isn’t that the new 40?

70!

Hit 65 this year... and not slowing down. ;)

Moni

aok -- lol, dog years sounds great!

I wonder if the participation in other forums is similar, different, or very different.

It's funny how time goes. I distinctly remember Glenda talking about turning 75! Noe, it's obviously five years later:)

Right behind you, Glenda. 79 until next March. Inspired by all those in 80's and 90's still coming to the water classes at the Y in all kinds of weather.

Same as Hot Rod, 52

Almost exactly 56 1/2. Some of y'alls longevity is truly inspiring. I'll be happy if I can retire while I'm still kicking.

I'm 80 and been here for eons lol.

Happy birthday to Glenda, Rose, and Ole Joyful! I am 60, and have been here since around 1998, if I remember correctly, maybe 1994-95.

Thank you for the stats AOK~!! I think I feel like a young'un.

I'm in my early 60's. Geesh that's hard to fathom, seeing it in print.

I've been here since 2007, and we've celebrated good times, helped with sad times, encouraged each other, been there when times are tough.......as much as one can when it's virtual friendship.

I'll never, ever forget the time and creativity you put in with Tom's photo. That is so dear to my heart.

I really, really love this forum. It's the only one I frequent.

I will turn 69 in a few months. I am trying not to look at the years ahead in terms of time left or at the time as passed. I was born in 1950 and never thought beyond the year 2000. So being older than 50 is hard to fathom. Being active in the moment and having full days is the goal. I came to the Kitchen Forum when we were remodeling the kitchen at the riverhouse in 2009. Found I enjoyed the company. I poked around the Garden Web and landed at KT. I admire all the people here.
