I guess I'm the oldest then; I will be 86 in September. I have just returned from a long week-end in Southern California getting acquainted with my first great-grandchild, Jared. Jill ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bud Schwab" <budschwab@xxxxxxxxxxx>

I'll be 86 in February and I'm still hangin' in there. BudAt 07:30 AM 5/17/2008, you wrote:Yeh - we oldies have to hang together, grandma! George R.

LOL. You're so young--not even middle-aged. 40 was the hard one for me. But George and I are septuagenarians (I think George is--we have a lot of memories in common) and Bob is talking about his gerontologist, though I'm sure he's younger than I. I think George and I and maybe Bud are the oldest on the list.So, Monica, you have a lot of life ahead of you--and may it be enjoyable.!!G.Cindy --- On Fri, 5/16/08, Monica Svopa <svopa@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:From: Monica Svopa <svopa@xxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Re: beards To: bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Date: Friday, May 16, 2008, 4:19 AM You're probably right. I've been working with a naturalpathic doctor on hormone balancing. Funny you should mention about age; I've been just getting a grasp of the fact that I'm going to be 39 in December. I'm realizing just how much I feel like life's passing by. Anyway, I won't bore the list anymore. Thanks.
