What wonderful words! When I turned 66 last week, I suddenly realized that I was closer to 70 than I was to 60 ... but I love being this age. There is such freedom with being 66. If I can just keep everything up and running, I'll have it made! Thanks so much for the laughs. I can't tell you how many times I have copied and pasted your stories in an email to my girlfriends (ages 50 to 78) so everyone can enjoy! Blessings, sweet quilty friend.

I went to the Dr. last Wed, to do all my blood work for the year. I got the call Friday with the results. The Dr. said I have the blood work of a 25 yr. old, whatever I do, keep doing it. I told him if I could get a complete body lift to go with the 25 yr old report, then I would be really in good shape. LOL LOL He told me to keep wishing. I turned 68 in Aug. and I try to do everyday what I want to. Love it......

This is what we call having paid our dues and we can enjoy it all! I have read this before and each time I read it, I sit back and think "By George, she's right." I always tell everyone, I can do anything I want to, I've paid my dues." And I have.

Ditter - you are a SPECIAL soul. You have learned life's lesson and are much richer for that. I envy the place that you are and would truely like to discard life's hangups that have been on my shouldners forever. Bless you, your wisdom and all of your "funnies" that you share with all of us - you brighten our days with your input.
