    Thanks, catherine and rr. It is what it is. Age catches up to all of us eventually. I guess it is how we deal with the inevitable that is most telling. I know my mom is a good and kind person, choosing being "nice" over being "not nice". If we truly reap what we sow in this life, then I know she is on the positive side of things. I am hoping I can follow suit - nice over nasty, happy over angry, etc. I firmly believe THESE are the things we both take with us and leave behind for others.

    This past week I had a “mini” stroke (TIA). Thankfully I have no brain or physical problems from it. My DS sent some pictures he had in his phone of me. It gave me a gist of how I will be remembered… very interesting.

    I'm glad you recovered from your TIA, frugal! It must have been pretty frightening for you and the family!

    Thanks. Yes, it was very disturbing. I was trying to speak and all that came out was gibberish. Some here could say that is always the case… haha.

    Glad you are fine now. I would stay on top of your BP to make sure it’s not too high.
