Just another birthday - I’m right there with you. But a greater realization that the clock is ticking. You clearly live your life with exuberance. Making every minute count. ❤️ Gotta go! Off to the Y for Yoga, cardio & strength classes! 🏋️♀️
What a lovely tribute. It is true that "at this time of our lives," we are losing people - some due to nothing more than age, others to tragic circumstances. Today is the one-year Yahrzeit for my 78-year old brother...being somewhat "old" but definitely an unexpected loss. You experienced that way too soon, and with Erica being too damn young. I remember her fondly. My mother lived till '94; we were so fortunate to have her that long, although she hated losing so many friends and family before her. Thinking of you!
Being 70 isn’t as bad as I thought it would be when I was 40 and younger. The wisdom, such as it is, and the true ability to not give a crap is remarkable. You’ll enjoy it!
I'm the 82 character, who for many reasons, loves Barry. He leads us with thoughtful kindness and applicable humor. Writes a bit also!! I cannot ask for more. Thanks!
I started counting backwards when I hit 70. This year I’ll be 68! Thanks as always for your reflections.

Thanks for sharing this, Jayne. There’s always sadness around us; what we do with it determines how we get through life.
Happy birthday!
