That seems the way the old age homes do. <BR/><BR/>Jeanette, loved what you said about a sugar-daddy. My grandma never told her real age, like Jack Benny she was always 39. She was not a beauty but she prissed and flounced her way everywhere she went like she was a 20 yr old. Wore her skirts short to her knees but failed to hide her stockings that were rolled in a garter and didn't go up above the hemline. She was quite a character. Thought a young announcer on tv was talking directly to her and she talked lovingly right back.<BR/><BR/> She ended up getting married again in her 80s and greatly upset all her living "children". <BR/><BR/>I am just hoping I don't end up like that. It is a scary thought."JeanneG"https://www.blogger.com/profile/16398758813763335651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20414780.post-1154568356899130392006-08-02T22:55:00.000-02:302006-08-02T22:55:00.000-02:30Lovely comments about aging.

Spending time recently in a hospital I was struck by the aged faces I encountered in the halls--people sitting in wheelchairs supposedly unable to move, heads drooped over and eyes vacant. But someone said to me recently that you must not forget the people who live inside the faces. They are still there! The human spirit doesn't age.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the post.J Isaacshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07186428348253351210noreply@blogger.com
