what is/was/going to be the midlife crisis?

[certherfbeef]

Some folks uproot their families, some folks make an insane purchase, some folks go loony and some folks blane it on menopause.

I'm not to the "mid" point in my life (I hope) so I have a few years to ponder. I was wondering what everyone caught themselves doing as they teatered on the top of the hill. What did you do to make you think you were still on the UP part of the hill?

-Brother in law got a diviorce and a harley...maybe not in that order but it still happened.
-Sis in law had a baby.
-Mom and Dad sold the cows and got town jobs.
-Hubby has been looking at those minny nitro pulling trucks...neat toy by the way!

Me...I fancy the 1967 Shelby Mustangs. The GT-500. I always wanted one. Maybe that'll be my insane purchase.

Atleast it is air conditioned in here! 40 plus days of triple digit temperatures and no rain will drive you to do crazy things. Central Texas is now a desert. It is flooding in El Paso. Go figure!

Hope its not a mid-life crisis (waaaaaaay to early for that yet) but last fall i bought me a brand new truck, and this spring bought me a handful of cows for myself. I think I'd go with the Shelby, too. Thats a good choice.

I never knew you were a millionaire! :lol: :lol: :lol:

My first car was a 67 GTO. If I was smarter I would have listened to my Dad and bought a pick up. Funny how the older we get, the smarter our parents were.

HeHe, never said I wanted it to run when I got it!!!
I like to tinker.
Maybe if I started now, I could drive it for me mid life crisis.

You know...one piece at a time

I saw a picture of a 65 Shelby 300 I think it was, restored...origional sheat metal, $235,000. She sure looked good.

Hubby says he'll buy me one...made by hotwheels or ertle, any color I want.

I bought eight freaken' cows.

 

[Texas Ranch Man]

I spent my life savings on a Cattle Ranch, Cattle, and Ranch Equipment. Best move I ever made. I highly recommend it to anyone who likes to spend their time outdoors in the country. I really believe this will help me live longer...as I now get plenty of HOT, SWEATY WORKOUTS a week just keepin up with what needs done.

I'm into my 50's and haven't done anything out of the ordinary yet. Except spend too much time on the computer. Guess I'm an old bore, but at least I'm a contented old bore. ;-)

My husband bought a 68 vette roadster with a big block motor when he turned 40. Ran around with his club buddies for a while, wrecked the car, and now has a motorcycle. Yamaha V Star. Wants a bigger one, but I have to say no sometime.

Me, I quit my job and sat around for almost 10 months thinking about how to re-invent myself.

I've known people who hit their 'mid-life' crisis at 40. I also know a few who hit it at 35, and many who never hit it at all. :lol: :lol:
