70

In the beginning: the 50s ...

The 60s. Me and the high school boyfriend ...

The 70s. Me, the college boyfriend, and our families ...

The 80s. I got married and divorced ...

The 90s. OK, this is actually close to the 90s but not quite there. Me and my sister in Portland ...

The 2000s ...

2020. Gray haired me and my sister and the pandemic ...

And now I have just turned 70. Never thought I would get this old. The ancient bod is starting to fall apart but so far I can still do the basic stuff (knock on wood). But I haven't really changed much interiorly since I was a teen - still a Democrat, still love animals, still a faminist, still love books and movies and music and chocolate donuts, and still wish I could discover the mysteries of the universe.

Happy birthday Crystal! I turned 70 this year too. I keep thinking, how the heck did time go by so fast? Hopefully there are good years left for both of us.

Yep; it's weird being the same age as old people.

Happy Birthday, Crystal. In the words of the great Willie Nelson, “Ain’t it funny, how time slips away?”
