From what I gather from your posts we're about the same age. Happy Birthday and many more.

I've heard that life really begins at 50. In that case, I'm now a teenager again. Watch out world. Skateboards and pimples.

If that's the case, I'm gonna slow down a little this time around on the 'teen years'...that first go 'round nearly killed me. 😉

I don't think I can stand another round of puberty.

My folks (both hovering around 90) have been retired and "relaxing" since '94. They have Finally begun to slow down. For years, they were busier while retired than when working. Good on them! We should all be so lucky.

When I had the issue with my right eye recently, the doctor told me that I also have cataracts in both eyes. When my eyes are tired, I sometimes see things like in the picture. When you have two good eyes, if something happens to one, you have a second chance. Now that I only have one ‰Ûgood‰Û eye, the prospect of surgery of any kind is a lot more worrisome. My distance vision is ok, but close up I have to wear readers. In order to read the color screen on the DC when running the TS, I am constantly taking off and putting on my reading glasses. PITA.

Does that mean you are a week older than me? My youngest daughter is only 8 days younger than me.

BTW, happy belated birthday to you, Tom.

Does that mean I add you to the list of famous people I share a birthday with?

I thought we were about the same age. I'll be 63 for another 4 months.

What if the 'Big Bang' theory was really just God farting?
