Unfortunately that makes me 85 today.David and Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09571847273026450123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449255540951766363.post-10983340152038500292010-01-14T22:07:48.653-05:002010-01-14T22:07:48.653-05:00All I can say is that you must be "aging"...All I can say is that you must be "aging" well, because everytime your family's name comes up my Mom says, "Oh you should see Elizabeth and Katherine they are so <br />beeeea-U-tiful!

And you looked at the scrawny little specimens of budding manhood in your 7th grade class and agreed. Perhaps you even took it upon yourself to share this information with the male members of your peer group.<br /><br />On behalf of those crushed little boys... Pthhhhpppt!<br /><br />P.S.

It's very pleasant. It gives us a little reprieve before two more months of snow and below zero temps. Brian, is that the family ward video? If so, I've seen it and it's hilarious!Elizabeth Downiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14985143085882983821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449255540951766363.post-31816799335875203562010-01-14T14:41:18.673-05:002010-01-14T14:41:18.673-05:00I just got back from taking Jin on a walk and the ...I just got back from taking Jin on a walk and the whole time I was thinking what a beautiful day it was. There's always a day or two in January where it climbs above freezing and tricks me into thinking spring is on the way even though I <i>know</i> that's not the case. I used to resent that, but now I just enjoy it while it lasts, and enjoy the strange fact that 35 degrees can feel quite pleasant in the right context.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01690477015680812905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449255540951766363.post-39095248873118026672010-01-14T13:56:39.285-05:002010-01-14T13:56:39.285-05:00This post reminded me of a video that Dan Magelby ...This post reminded me of a video that Dan Magelby forwarded me.

Every year after my birthday it takes me about 6 months to change the age. It's like if I don't see it there in black and white right in front of me it's not real.Christihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01595722630579668412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449255540951766363.post-54327243706891851112010-01-13T17:15:15.536-05:002010-01-13T17:15:15.536-05:00I've seen a lot of people out and about on bik...I've seen a lot of people out and about on bikes lately.
