Death is part of life, but I find it strange, that I'm being told people are living longer now due to medications available, and lifestyles changing, but I am being made aware of more deaths of people I know, now more than ever. If I attended all of the funerals of all of the people that I have known that have recently died, I would have a hard time finding the time to work.

My parents were sating that theyt had several funerals to go to last week... I think the older we get the more people we know-- the more people we know- the more die-- hence more funerals--- at the rate their little town is going it should be neagtive people by the end of june.

Mom and Dad were part of a camping club which they enjoyed very much, it was 30-40 people about 10 years ago. My mom is the last surviving member of the club.

She lived a super life, with her wits about her, and her wonderful personality for the whole time. Most people live, most don't live to the age that she lived, and most don't live life to the fullest as she seems to have. What an accomplishment, even if she didn't make 100.

Had to look it up and turn off safe search, but sure enough, she showed the world. Maybe best not to attach here.

I was in the really low one time and could not think or hold any thing in my hands. Not sure how low I was. But when I am low I get cold.

As far as give a crap, since I retired and don't have to work to eat and live my tolerance for BS is in the nano meter scale.
