BIRTHDAY TIME AGAIN YAY

Okay Birthday time again. Yes this would be my 70 th yes I said 70. The sad part of that is I can no longer say I am in my 60's. This birthday was a great one. I saw my daughters together with me for the first time in 38 years. Was a birthday to remember unlike last year,that I want to forget. I had two birthday days this year, the 24th with my daughters Donna and Kim , then on the 25th with my daughter Amie and her family. Too awesome for words, it was great.

On a sad note this is the year I lost my wife to a rare illness. We were married for 37 years and I sure miss her a great deal. I have a monument in the corner of my living room dedicated to Barbara, including the fireplace she always wanted . It has been a rather big change learning to live alone but I like to think I am doing the best I can. I will always miss my Barbara but life goes on for now.

My company for now is my beloved kittens Ellie and Lexi , and I Think they are starting to understand english, from me talking to them so much, and belive it or not they don't talk back. It has been a big change in lifestyle and I am in hopes of doing things a little different. I am trying to live everyday to the fullest and enjoy everything possible for my age. Belive it or not age, although you are wiser things come a little slower. I can do everything I used to,just a little slower. Well I just wanted to let my MANY fans know I am still above the dirt not below it. For now it is Jim signing off.
