Getting Old Sucks!

A year ago we all celebrated my mom's 90th birthday.(See Below)


At age 90 she was able to walk a little and get pretty much anywhere with a walker .

For her 91st birthday we took her to the Beachside Restaurant (See Below).

Now, just a few months later she is unable to do anything by herself. It really sucks! She has always been a very strong independent, woman and now she is totally dependent. It makes me sad.

I Tried Face Book

The last few months everything on the TV or the radio seems to have mentioned Facebook or Twitter. A few days ago Nancy joined both and has been spending hours every day on her accounts. I got curious and jealous and decided to take the plunge. I setup my Facebook account this morning. What a nightmare! Within 10 minutes I had way too many "friends", instant messages, and all kinds of "stuff" on my wall. I was definitely in information overload. I have always called Nancy the "Great Communicator", a title she well deserves. I am not sure whether to continue with my Facebook account or leave such communications with Nancy and just live vicariously through her experiences.
