Sue on June 2, 2012, her 65th birthday!!
Arriving at 65 seems to be a milestone or a pinnacle, worthy of reflection or at least some sort of stock taking. Here goes:
Full Name: Susan Virginia Beers Connolly St.Pierre (whew!)
Height: Still 5'3"
Weight: It says 120 on my drivers license and I am sticking with that.
Hair color: Taupe
Eye color: Still murky hazel, not the clear green my mother's became as she got older.
BP: 124/78 (with yoga breathing)
1 son (Kit)
2 stepchildren (Susie, Bobby)
3 in law children (Jessica, Tetsu, Katie)
4 grandchildren (Kelan & Beckett, Gus & Mia)
6 grandchildren (two more due in November)
Fondest hope: that they will all stick by me as I get even more annoying because I can't hear or remember who they are. Until then, I count them among my dearest blessings.
Dearest blessing: Bob. Somehow we found new love together 25 years ago, and life has been a joyful adventure ever since. I cannot say it any better.
Next big event: Bob's 65th birthday on August 1. Then he will stop bothering me with comments about being married to an older woman.
Favorite activities: Golf, Hiking, Skiing, Yoga, Walking with friends literally and figuratively, staying connected with all the people who have followed me through the changes I have needed to make.
So here I am at somehow turning 65. Healthy, Smiling, Grateful.
Namaste
