"I spy with my little eye"...

 

WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE !!!

Seems NASA was out for a cruise lately and ran into (not literally) an asteroid named Vesta zooming through the big empty near us, maybe uncomfortably near us, but we're cool. Whew!

Poor Vesta!! Sparky will you stop pickin on the lady???geesh

[Ballygrl]

Awwwww, I like our Vesta LOL.

[Gina]

We all like her in our own little way. 

[debk]

This is probably closer to our Vesta.

However, I think Vesta is much younger than the lady in the picture.

[NHSparky]

Poor Vesta!! Sparky will you stop pickin on the lady???geesh

How long have I been saying that when ya'll start acting smarter, I'll start acting nicer?  And remember, she isn't doing much to dispel the "Mainers are stupid" bit.

Isn't she in NH?  Thougth she was just down the road in The Hamptons. 

And about that picture, that jus ain't right.

Of course we do; we all actually love vesta with a heat and a passion.

Frank, she's not a cat........................I think.....

I thought she lived in NH too...Like me , she lives in Maine, but the majority of her family live in the NH seacoast area

I think she is in her late 60's early 70's... I remember vaguely her talking about grandchildren graduating from High School..

I think she is in her late 60's early 70's... I remember vaguely her talking about grandchildren graduating from High School..

OK,OK,  Born in Maine, left home and traveled where ever in the States and came home 20+ years ago for good. Settled in NH as the Maine taxes were and are outrageous.  Family and Maine is just 10 miles away across the river.

I became a grand mother believe it or not in my early 30's yup-O, --I and first born started breeding early and not one regret for either of us.  Get the kids raised in mid 30-or early 40's and have 2 thirds of your life to spend watching the kids, their kids and their kids grow up and blame whatever happens to them on THEIR parents, or take credit for their well being.   

I am still too young for SS at this time ---Love the early 70's bit Sea, but the picture of the old lady stretching before the sign is of MY MOTHER,  Bless her heart, she can still out run me in a foot race.

Sparkys picture of me is just a bit of, I like to think of myself as Grandma in PlayBoy years ago.

Anyone who can dig up the cartoons of that old lady is welcome to, she is what I wanted to grow old as.----Darn almost there.

[seahorse513]

oh well I am glad we got the record straight......I am not good with ages......

[vesta111]

oh well I am glad we got the record straight......I am not good with ages......

No problem Sea, I picture you at around 28-30 years old.

Takes a lot of living to get to my point in life when I can tell it as I see it even when I have my glasses on upside down.

Fortunately there are folks that can call attention to the changes in society that I miss,  some Will not debate with me just call me a Sewing Machine.

Others take the time and energy to go one on one with me and  even when I loose an argument, I still win with new information about the world. Bless my opponents.

So much information I have been fed from family, schools and Peers that I have to cross check from personal observation or memory that may have been tainted by the liberal Press.

I am closing in fast to being an old lady here, much of my life has been playing by the rules of society.

Where  am I going in this crazy world of today,  no PC for me.  When I grow up I want to be like Betty White,  no nonsense, just a cellar full of Mafia goods.     

[debk]

I thought you and I were about the same age...in so many of the "memory" posts, you and I match up almost equally.


 

Warning 

 
When I am an old woman I shall wear purple
With a red hat which doesn't go, and doesn't suit me.
And I shall spend my pension on brandy and summer gloves
And satin sandals, and say we've no money for butter.
I shall sit down on the pavement when I'm tired
And gobble up samples in shops and press alarm bells
And run my stick along the public railings
And make up for the sobriety of my youth.
I shall go out in my slippers in the rain
And pick flowers in other people's gardens
And learn to spit.

You can wear terrible shirts and grow more fat
And eat three pounds of sausages at a go
Or only bread and pickle for a week
And hoard pens and pencils and beermats and things in boxes.

But now we must have clothes that keep us dry
And pay our rent and not swear in the street
And set a good example for the children.
We must have friends to dinner and read the papers.

But maybe I ought to practice a little now?
So people who know me are not too shocked and surprised
When suddenly I am old, and start to wear purple.

Thanks, Vesta....us "old women" gotta stick together! 

However, my dear, you are on your own if you want to look like "Grandma" from Playboy! If my boobiez ever start pointin' down, I'm headed to the nearest plastic surgeon for a new set!! 


Sea...I thought you were somewhere in your early 30's, at most...

There is a simple explanation for that.  Vesta has forgotten the older things.

Speaking of boobies, funny how life goes. 

Why is it a man will in pregnant a lady with big boobs, but marry a woman with  small boobs.

So strange, I have as a wondered about this for years, perhaps we need to go ask Frank.

Ahem....you did read the Vesta's post after mine? She and I are very close in age, and she might be, probably be even, younger than I am.

Just remember....someday you will be this age.
