I'm still winging it. I've never raised a teen before. We met with the Rabbi today to plan for his Bar Mitzvah. I've never done THAT before -- I was a nervous wreck. The last time I moved, before two years ago, I was 20 and my stuff fit in my car. I moved without a clue. This time I had two kids and a dog I was responsible for, but despite two YEARS of planning, things went off just as haphazardly.

That's life, no?

Best comment on aging I ever saw was:

"You are old when you do things for the last time more frequently than you do things for the first time." It has become something I check in with regularly.
