My daughter told me cheerfully today that I am not new, so I MUST be old. Right before that she said that it had been ten thousand weeks since I was a little kid. How about you? Are you not new, so you're old?

Well, if it really has been 10,000 weeks since you were a kid, then you definitely are old (I punched it in on the calculator and that would make you 192 years old). My children have never posed this question or made this statement to me before. My daughter does recognize the fact that I am older than her and she does ask me questions about when I was a little girl. It strikes me as funny when she asked me if Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny were around when I was a little girl.

I guess having gone past 60 years, I am getting older, but apart from aches and pains now and again, I do not consider myself as old. I reckon I could still climb a tree if I wanted to! Only the other week I climbed on the roof our our house to fix our TV aerial! _Derek

Hey mommyboo! I guess if you are old, then I must be ancient!lol As they say "Out of the mouths of babes" Doh? What was that all about? I thought only newborn babies are new? So that would make your daughter not new either! So is she old too? Huh? I am totally lost with this one! And if we have to define ourselves in weeks then I am surely in big trouble because I am not that good in math! I don't want to compute my age into weeks! I will just say that I am ancient and leave it at that! You can just be old!

I'm way too young to be this dayum old!!! Your daughter is NO longer new so does that mean she is old??? I bet she screams NOOOOOO!!! You might want to get your daughter to do the math again. There's 52 weeks in a year. According to your profile you're only 35 years old. 52 weeks * 35 years = 1,820. 10,000 weeks / 52 weeks = 192.3 years old. Soooo, you are MUCH YOUNGER than your daughter has calculated!!! Now....don't you feel better???

My stepson will always say i like when I beat old people. Whenever he beats anyone older then him. Hes 7 though so you would think he would start having an idea on what old really is.
