MOM's birthday

Tomorrow is my mother's birthday, she will be 88 years old and she lives by her self and handles her life in a very independent manner. She tells us she wishes to live in her house until she reaches 90 and than it will be time to join her brother and sis in the assisted living facility ? We will see if she still feels the same way in two years. We that is vj, ken and I took her to brunch this morning she look great and is still sharp in the brains department. If genes are an indicator I am looking good , however not sure what the other side look like so it could be an offset. The Apple founder said you are born along and you die along , guess he is correct.


My favorite season of the year is fall and this fall has not been a disappointing , the weather is great. VJ & I are headed to grove park for a day or so . We are not traveling anymore except for a day or so here and there so  we try to go somewhere relativity close and nice. A  little sightseeing and a 5 star restaurant one night and a little wine and we will come home and back to normal.


We had a hot prospect on the house , but they landed in Clayton , folk that move in here new like the Clayton area. The guy spent a lot of time in the community talking to folk and I think his family was more comfortable in Clayton . I am told they got a bigger house for less money on the golf course.


VJ is doing well her balance is not good and her speech continues to slip a little , but she maintain the great attitude. I worry about her falling which she does often, normally she just slip off a chair or get her feet crossed . I am afraid she will take  hard fall and sh will lose her  confidence and retreat into sitting  in one place to be safe. I saw my grandmother go Thur that when she broke a hip   late in life.


Finished with the hospital and playing a little more golf ,I am glad I have the ability to play in my back yard . I can be home quick if needed. I hope we can find the same situation when we move (IF)


Life is good!
