My friend Nancy has the nicest blog. It's always warm and friendly and makes you feel good. Her last one reminded me that it has been 20 years since she lost her sister. Wow! Where have we all been that the time has flown by? I can still remember when the White twins arrived at Bryan Elementary. They were so confussing....mirror images! I'm sure they delighted in our confusion and I must say....it took a long time to be able to tell them apart. Speaking of passing time....40 years since high school graduation? I don't know if I've been having so much fun that it has flown by so quickly or if I've just been running to keep up!!! Funny how we have all turned into the older generation. Sometimes I don't recognize that person in the mirror with the grey hair and wrinkles. Where did she come from? If my Mother was still on Earth I would say she was pulling a prank on me! I really laugh when people tell me I haven't changed a bit. I don't remember having grey hair, wrinkles and bi-focals in high school...but I do look like an older version of that Friday night twirler with all that energy and enthusiasm. I can still twirl but if I did the splits I would never get back up! I'm a little sedate now but still have that fiery temper and still don't mind sharing what's on my mind.
I guess we have all aged in one way or another and that's ok. I don't relish the alternative and hope I'm around at 100.
Wow. Myra, thanks for the nice words about my blog!
ReplyDeleteYours is great, too.
And yes, I wonder where the time has gone... and no, I don't feel as old as I am. When I catch my reflection in a mirror, though, I'm reminded I AM this old.
It's so great to be back 'reconnected'!
