The View from 72

Granny here,

Well, this is a special week for me, Wed. is my 72 birthday and I must say the view from 72 isn't all that bad. First of all I never thought I would make it this far and the blessings bestowed upon me are too numerous to count. God has abundantly blessed me through the years and I am indeed grateful.

But you know now a days, the new 40 is 60 and the new 50 is 70 so I'm actually only 52 now isn't that just great. That means that I lose my senior discount (lol) and my mother will expect more from me than she already does but on the bright side maybe I can get a man around 55 to look my way, think I have a chance? I knew there was something great about this birthday and I never thought I would be 50 again but the world is full of surprises.

I'm enjoying myself at any rate but missing my birthday celebrator Sherri who has skipped the country and gone to Italy, France and Spain without permission I must say. Can't say as I blame her, she deserves every day of her vacation and a wonderful man to go with her. Hope they enjoy themselves to the fullest extent of foreign law.

Well, back to birthdays, they're wonderful no matter what the year because it is the greatest gift that you can receive that God has counted you worthy to receive one more. Thank you God from the birthday girl.

So when you're 72 don't forget to enjoy the view, I am!

Granny here, just saying!
