Debbie,
If you want to meet 2 of the sweetest ladies in the world go by and meet Shirley and Sandy.
Sandy is head of the Phys Ed Dept at the high school she teaches at and an ardent lover of the wild and unblemished natural places in Florida....and I am sure other places to. She had her knees replaced in Jan or Dec and is doing great.
I actually had to pause a minute to figure out which was the mama and which was the daughter.
Shirley is just beautiful and has been a care taker her whole life and is easing into learning what to do now that she has fewer demands on her. As in her picture she looks 20 years younger than the 70+ she confesses to.
I have rarely met two ladies I felt almost kin to immediately. We enjoyed a drive out to Honeymoon Island and a great rip to the ice cream shop. We spent time in the pool and Sandy brought us breakfast on the waterfront.
I had an awesome relationship with my mother and just being around these two beautiful women was a blessing.
Sidney
Life isn't about how you survived the storm, It's about how you danced in the rain!
