Happy Birthday to me!
65 years ago
12 Years ago
Today is my 82nd birthday. It is also the 8th anniversary of my beloved husband's death!
What a horrible birthday gift! He died about 2:00 PM. Carla and I were there. We expected him to die but not so soon. The doctors had said he could live as much as two weeks after they took him off all medication. But he only lived about two days
I feel good for 82 years of living. I am a little stiff and sore sometimes and not quite as nimble as I once was but otherwise I feel as good as I did 50 years ago. I have been blessed with good health. As far as I can tell, my mental facilities are still as good as ever. Maybe I forget a little bit more but you can't put much over on me! (Maybe I am just too senile to notice it!)
So I am making it even without my better half. I miss him greatly but I am looking forward to being joined with him again when I leave this earth. Here's hoping I will reach 83 this time next year!

Grandma had that picture of you and Ford sitting on her dresser for as long as I could remember. I'm glad you posted it! Hope you enjoy more birthdays than Grandma did!
