    NjNancy- sorry to hear of your troubles. I hope you get to see your son again soon. I don't know what is going on around here either.

    I've met Julie Andrews before....didn't think I was going to meet her, but she offered to meet all the kids after the concert. I think I was 10.



    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    But the thing is (depending on outlook, I guess)...it's not horrible. Why is FEELING a certain age trumped by physically aging? People I've seen - mostly women - trying to combat nature end up looking more unnatural.

    I don't know...I look in the mirror and sure, it'd be nice to see the face of the young woman I was in my 20s. But I'm not that woman anymore, thank god.

    I'm THIS woman.

    Sure, keep myself in shape, take care of my skin, etc...but I AM older. I embrace it, I'm thankful to have lived in full so that my face shows the lines of smiles and sorrow, of living. It's life...and I've learned a shitload in the process - still am.

    Hedo,I don't know about you but I'd much rather be in my skin (and head)now in my 40s then going back to my twenties.Youre so right about our lines showing the smiles,sorrow and joy of our life's experiences.I for one embrace the next few chapters.

    Ps-how's Hedoman feeling?His kidneys doing better?

    It's funny how we change (and don't) from decade to decade. Quite the wild - and sometimes insightful - ride.

    And thank you for asking, rr! He's in good shape today, even changed both cat boxes and swept the kitchen floor.

    Awesome how marriage, partnership in general, is never 50/50. We lean on each other, pick up the slack when needed, supplement weakness with strength.

    Pffft. This place is just fine and the kids are alright.

    It's what you / we put into it, take from it, and make of it.
