Guest guest Posted May 6, 2006 Report Share Posted May 6, 2006 Yesterday I went to Universal Studios here in Florida with cheese and triscuits in my purse. At the end of the day we stopped at the girl who guesses weights or ages and I know the prizes, if she lost them all, would still turn her a profit. She guessed my age though at 43. Well, she would probably go for lower rather than higher. When I told her I was 74, she went into shock! She said " NO WAY you can be that age. You couldn't even be out here walking the whole day. " (And I probably couldn't have, had I not come off of sugar here recently. I was into healthy food and sweets.) I thought about the Enquirer headlines on Elizabeth Taylor who is exactly my age being bedridden with heart failure. I didn't have her beauty, fame, diamonds or Richard Burton but I was so happy at that moment just to be who I am! Janice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 8, 2006 Report Share Posted May 8, 2006 Janice, yay for taking good snacks along with you!!! And too funny about guessing the age. I'm here in New Mexico for Radiant Ranch and having a lovely time. So far it's been a lot of playing with other radiant folks. I've been carrying around oatcakes and almonds with me. Oatcakes in case I eat out and there's no brown (although here you can get black beans almost anywhere), and almonds for a snack to prevent crashing. I've already given some out to other folks who needed them LOL. Heather ________________________________ on behalf of Janice Sat 5/6/2006 10:19 AM Maybe we will convert you here, Pat A.
