It’s Middle-Aged Ladies’ Day!
By Tobi Schwartz-Cassell

Did you know that today is “Middle-Aged Ladies’ Day?”
Well, it is!
There is finally a day where we don’t have to be embarrassed by a little chin hair. Or a root line that used to be solidly brunette but now has some gray strands. Or a little bit more middle-aged middle.
And there’s finally a day when we celebrate US and our well-earned:
- Wisdom
- Smile lines
- Unwillingness to take anyone’s crap, whether it’s our mate’s, children’s, boss’ or client’s
- Permission to ourselves to have ice cream for dinner every once in a while
- Opportunity to shop at clothing stores that are smart enough to have vanity sizing
- Happiness derived, not so much from material things, but from the love and support of family members and/or friends who know exactly what to say to make you feel better when you’re feeling down
Many honor-days like Middle-Aged Ladies’ Day are created by marketers who want to sell everything from peanuts to pickles to Valentines. But not this one.
This one was created by me. A middle-aged lady. And guess what? Middle-Aged Ladies’ Day is everyday. Why? Because WE deserve it.

Tobi, I love reading your articles. Never knew there was a Middle-aged Woman Day! (Ha-ha, I fell for it). When I believed this, I thought there should be a day for ‘Women of a certain age’, but we celebrate that every day (as long as we can). So middle-aged women–remember to honor us. You will be in our place soon!!

So true, Marsha! Every woman, if she is lucky enough, will be in our place soon. Thank you!

This is GREAT, Tobi! I will certainly pass this along to all of my middle aged lady friends!
Have an awesome day! Eat the cake! 🙂

I LOVE the invention of Middle Aged Ladies’ Day and everything you described about it! The day I would like to see is BFF Day! Where would we women be without our best girlfriends? I have found this true at every age.
