I was already retired from my career at your age.

I keep thinking and talking about it, but can't seem to bring myself to pull the trigger even though everything is basically in place.

I turn 70 on Friday

Party at Waterfall's place on Friday!!

Only thing worse is pieces of glitter - they can lurk around for decades

So, Waterfall's place after the party?

Ah yes glitter... the herpes of craft supplies


Oh and y'all can relax now that I am LAST

Speaking of people getting older, looks like someone survived his birthday.

Absolutely deadly. I have one daughter who loves tissue paper with glitter for all occasions. This daughter is not a child, by the way. Her love of glitter might go back to childhood days.

I hit that milestone a few months ago.

LAST as a handful of snowflakes fell on my head...visibility is only a few blocks but that's because of fog

A very Happy Birthday to you on Friday!

Thank-you.

I hit that milestone a few months ago.

I thought I remembered that we were around the same age.....does that make us a "sage" now?

I'm aiming for 70 and then will decide what to aim for. Just over two years to the first goal of 70.

I don't have a target given that if I had taken after Mom's family, I would likely be dead now (3 out of 4 members of her immediate family died of heart disease before 60, including her). Dad and his father both made 80 so I guess I'll be happy if I get there as well. But, really, I just live each year and take it as it comes.

Women on both sides of my family (grandparents' generation and back) were very long lived. Every day I'm alive is a miracle after the LAST 12 years of health upheavals

The Beatles had some good songs, but I never understood the whole Beatlemania thing either

I am glad to read that :3

I think with me I heard them at that sweet spot where now most of my cherished things are from that period

Even John Denver

So I was really liking ELO
And didn't know why
Then my wife pointed oot they were essentially based around the Beatles sound
And I became Enlightened

Mr Blue Sky is one of my fav Joy Songs

I could have attended a Beatles concert back in the day. Most of the people my age at my workplace were going. I declined - a ticket cost a week's wages. I hated the screaming and hysteria- for a costly ticket I w anted to actually hear the music!

Niece's teacher is a apparently a HUGE Beatles fan so she was asking him questions and then me. As far as she knows, she hasn't heard any Beatles songs. I wouldn't know for sure (she wouldn't have heard any in this house) as I'm not sure if her dad was a fan (also during his era)

Birthday's for 60's and 70's ... why I cannot respond sensitively as I'm way beyond that and the young folk do not believe anything from that far out there ...

70's were almost 9 years ago ... and fainting fast into the feint ... also note that my surroundings are passing ... but stress is affecting those much younger as some powers believe bullying is best ... all that is left is foul ... except what escapes into virtue ... true? It manifests out there ... some see it as space-time glitter ... stella 'r! Mores to look into when flat out ...
