Emma, you have such a good spirit I think you will live a long time. We
aren't really all that old are we? My husband won't admit that he is
getting old. He hates it that he has lost most of his curly blond hair and
what is left is around the sides and has alot of gray in it. When I cut his
hair he always says don't cut any off the top, I tell him don't worry I
won't
Louise
