LORI IS 50!!



Well, it's that time of life..... Lori is 50!! Of course she is my OLDER SISTER but I'm not far behind - Yikes! How does one get to this place in life? Weren't we only 25 a few years ago?

Really, it's hard to believe we are so close to "retirement" thinking. I remember even a few years ago thinking about the 60's seem like so far away - retirement - who needed to even spare a moment to think about it? Well, apparently we do as it is just around a very large corner. Of course when we look at our kids, I guess it makes sense. Lori's twins are in their 30's and mine in their mid 20's, But it's the proverbial, "I'm way too young to be this old" routine. I don't feel any different now than I did in my 20's. Of course looking in the mirror.... but I think losing your eyesight is God's grace. Without glasses on I look darn good! Every once in a while I need that close up (to apply some eyeliner etc), so I search out the reading glasses, put them on and it's a bit of a shock. Those glasses magically make fine lines and blemishes appear??... I knew I hated wearing those glasses. But alas, life goes on and as I said without those glasses I look darn good. That's my story and I'm stickin' to it!
