My wifes mom, who has lived with us for the last 12+ years, turns 99 next week. Born on a ranch in Texas many miles from any real town. She is still "with it" and doesn't miss anything that goes on.
Sits down with us every night for dinner and finishes her plate, then checks to see how i'm doing. She knows nights I go fishing and always asks if I caught anything! She loves fresh fish of any kind. Pretty sure she'll make 100...but we're making a big deal out of this one....taking her to foxwoods overnight......she will have a great time I'm sure.

Thanks Clammer...We moved them into our home back when her father got sick...sadly he passed away here with us several years ago. If she had been sent to a nursing home I don't believe she would have made it this far.... she is extremely well cared for...lucky woman. When I married her daughter 41 years ago, she wasn't that keen about me. Something about being of english decent, to her, meant a cold heart.
I wish you peace and contentment and a better year than last. |

Yep. I was just sharing the Cutty story with him..... |

Good news? I'm 65 this year. Just had a colonoscopy - clear, return in 2 years. Dermatologist exam - clear, 10 years since melanoma removal, no prob even with all the fishing and golf (sun block).
Primary care? Lost 23 pounds, BP 120/70. Cholesterol way low.
Changes diet to minimize carbs and dairy. Lots of summer veggies and proteins. Lots of 85% dark chocolate. A scotch during Bruins games.
Lost the weight in 6 weeks.
Anyway, Bigfish was looking for good news and I guess that is what I have...
Can't wait for spring.
Best to all.

Peg lost her younger sister, mother and two close friends this year to cancer, so the good news is somehow she made it through and agreed to leave on an extended vacation to heal and recover. We are looking forward to a couple warm weeks in Hilton Head and then a couple in Sarasota FL. Looking like mid 70's this coming week here in HH, so it's golf in shorts and walks on the beach, dinners out and lots of beer.
