Compliment--oh, maybe not

I have been super busy doing health and wellness physicals this week. (trying to make a little Christmas money.)  Yesterday, I went to Jerome Idaho and did exams at a farm machine company.  They put me in a little cubicle and I saw 3 different good old Idaho farm boys.  After I was done, I stayed in my cubicle for awhile to fill out the paperwork.  I could hear the guys coming in and out and just shooting the breeze.  I heard one of the guys, (the 27 yr. old) come back in and just as I was standing up, he said, "That was not a bad looking older woman!"  Then he saw me and looked absolutely mortified that I was still there.  He quickly said, "You are not a bad looking woman!"  I had many come backs for him but he was so embarrassed that I just told him that that was the best compliment I've had in quite awhile, so thank you.  (If it only would have not contained the word 'old')  It's funny that I won't even begin to think of myself as old until my last child has left the house.  But apparently a 27 yr. old sees me as old:(
