Congratulations Nan,
You have survived the long ride and I'm glad you have made a 40 years going
on 50. I didn't realize you lived in New York. You have accomplished a lot
and we are proud of you.
Thanks for writing about your life and letting us know that you have reached
your 40 th year..
It would be fun to see pictures of your miniature horses, dogs and puppies.
Dana

Yippie!!!!!!!!! I made it. How mny other "old timers" are out there???
Yes, I celebrate. Forty years ago they gave me a 5% chance of living - and
here I am 40 years later.
Now going for the next milestone ... 50 years!
I have a great life. Yes, it has it's ups and downs - like spending 2 1/2
months in a nursing home healing a pressure sore or gaining way too much
weight and not being able to shed it, or living in cold, cold, cold NY State
(well not cold this week).
My husband and I celebrated 30 year together last year - even though he
"came out" to me after 26 years of marriage ... THAT was a surprise!! He is
still my best friend.
I have my sons, my grandchildren, my miniature horses and my 3 Labs (17
puppies at the moment!!) and my friends.
Life is good. I celebrate life!
Well, sorry to make this short but sweet, so much has happened over the
years I could go on & on ..... But, I have a horse show tomorrow so have to
get
to bed.
My parting words were written by someone else, but they fit so well: "Life
should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in
a well preserved body, But rather to slide in sideways, Chocolate in one
hand, Strawberries in the other, a body worn out,
used up and screaming as loudly as possible,'Woo Hoo, What a ride'!!!"
