What I've Been Doing (Part 2)

[la_samtyr]

Well, when the weather is nice, I am busy doing stuff outside. Slow, but sure. Also very iffy since the weather has been weird.

I have to admit I miss my aunt and uncle a lot. However, I still have one aunt left (on my mom's side) who is making plans for her 101st birthday in July. Her son, Mick, just rolls his eyes at the idea of another huge b'day party for her especially since his youngest daughter is getting remarried for the second (or third?) time this June. XD Love it! And I have an aunt and uncle (my dad's older brother and older sister) who are also 90+. (A lot of people just stare at me when I tell them this, like they think I'm playing some elaborate practical joke. Why, I don't know. Go figure.)

Today is also nice, so I will probably be back in a little while. Lots and lots of serious cleaning to do, and very little time to do it in. Also, I need to decide where I am going to plant the garden, and other flowers because spring is only a few weeks away.

Oh, and I really need to get that new bike! Exercise awaits!

My Aunty is 103; she lives at home still but gets help from family. When my great nan died at 97 there were some murmurings that she went before her time lol My dad's side of the family always live a long time.

Hugs Binky x

That is so cool about your Aunty. :) Some families have really good genes.

I think it is wonderful.

And I am so glad Spring is on the way for you.

Well, I do love a really good joke. Though a lot of the time when I am trying to be serious, it comes across as humour, I guess.

Spring can't come soon enough!

all my granddad's sisters lived well into their 90's, we have only had one 99 so far though!

I love older relatives because they usually know the very best stories that most people would prefer to forget. ;)

Yeah, she's still pretty good for her age. :)
