jean long here -

when my adopted grandkids celebrated my 77th birthday on May 20 I said to
them - before we light the candles, I have a gift for you all.  Their eyes
got brighter and they stiffened up and looked around!  I said it doesn't
come in a box -- the gift is that I am the only "old" person you know who
has fun getting older each year.  Do you know anybody who is old who likes
being old?  No?  When I was 12 I decided I never wanted to be old like my
aunts (in flour sack dresses) and my uncles (sleeping on the porch or
playing cards).  Now there is nothing wrong with any of those things -
unless that is the sum total of your activities!  I think I have succeeded
in being Auntie Mame gloryifically thank you very much!!

What an adventure - I've never been 77 before!
