    40+ and how to deal with it?

    I have this on my wall at work - can't take credit for it (my sister in law sent it me a while ago) Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, wine in the other...
