It seems last week I was worried about my thirty-fifth birthday --and here I am, eighty one today, married sixty years to the same great husband, four children, six grandies, and four great grands, one of whom is in second grade already!! They aren't joking when they tell you "time flies". piecefully, the old one

Happy Birthday!

I remember my dear old Grandma telling me that she didn't know what happened and it "scared" her to look in the mirror as she still felt 16 inside ;-)

Murphy 11-19-2010 07:00 AM

Ditter43 11-19-2010 08:27 AM

I have also noticed the older we get, the shorter the days seem to be. It must be that downhill slide, picking up speed!!
Congratulations on your accomplishments so far!! :thumbup:

Happy B-day!!

Just today my husband asked me if I was happy being married to him, I said yes!!! And I am having a blast being his wife.

the old one 11-19-2010 05:31 PM

to all of my quilting friends on this great forum, Thanks so much for the good wishes, I had a great day--friends called and came for coffee, family in other states called, too and we went out for Chinese food this evening. Plus, the only orchid that I have ever kept alive is blooming again.
I love my friends here, but sometimes I feel so close to all of you---piecefully, the old one
