SUMMER KEY LIME PIE....GRAB ALL THE HAPPINESS YOU CAN!

Sister: "Hey! I called to wish you a Happy Birthday!"

 

Me: "Oh, thank you so much! I appreciate that!"

 

Sister: "What are you going to do for fun? (before I could respond, she continued.) You know you need to start thinking about applying for Social Security. You have been a SC for sometime now!"

 

Me: "What's an SC?"

 

Sister: "Senior Citizen! You have been a Senior Citizen from the time you turned 55!

 Haven't you been using your discount?"

 

Me: "WHAT? I have never heard of that! You have to be 65 to be considered a Senior, so NO, I have not been going around saying,

I AM A SENIOR CITIZEN SO GIVE ME A DISCOUNT!"

 

Sister: "Really? Well, you need to realize your age and embrace it....we're getting older and I want you to know the rules about your IRA, Long-term care insurance".......and on and on......

 

You can always count on your sister to offer a dose of reality!

 

 

"Relax, enjoy and have a fabulous day!"

 

"Don't make it just another day......life is too short......dance!"

  

 

My card from the darling......

I immediately start laughing as I open the card, along with my first cup of morning coffee.....
 

 

Poor darling.......I don't think he realized this was a wedding card for a new bride and groom! He just thought it was very representative of us........I totally agree.....

Beautiful flowers from #2 son, Nick!
