Who's That Woman?

Hola!
I have mentioned it a couple of times that I still think I was in my 30s, although in reality, I'm already in my mid-40s. Why I still feel 30, I have absolutely no idea. Perhaps it's because I got married at that age, and since I don't have children, I got stuck in that era of my life. Maybe... just maybe.
But yes, I still feel younger (internally), not always, but most of the time. It wasn't only me, but the hubby too. It's a different story, though, if you ask us whether we look younger or older (so better not, LOL).
Wait, what the heck am I blabbering about?
One question this week in the LoH community is whether we feel younger or older for our age.
So yeah, my answer is younger. A lot younger, in fact, depending on my mood. I usually feel young when I'm excited. That's probably normal. I do try to act appropriately. But when I am exhausted, I feel like I am the oldest, lol. Pain here and there. Ouchy, this or that.😅 Pretty normal, I guess.
The truth is, I often get surprised when I look in the mirror and see a different image than the 30-year-old gal I was expecting. "Dang! You've gotten older!" I tease myself at times, pinching my cheeks, which have shrunk a lot.
Or I would exclaim loudly, "Oops, you are many years wiser!" when I find a grey strand on my head. Mom's genes are quite dominant. My sisters and I took after her. We started to have grey strands early (40+). But it's okay. It's not something to be ashamed about. According to my cousin, it's a sign we have gained wisdom, lol!
Anyway, for how long would I be feeling 30, I don't know. Hope to stay that way, remain curious, keep engaging in the things I like, be playful, and be mentally and physically active.
