Guest guest Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 I have a friend who goes with me to lunches with church women or anything we can figure out and she is 91. She deefinitely gets around better than I do. Have another friend here who used to be very active but she fell and broke her neck and she has a brace on her neck and she has a doctor appt next month and hopes that it comes off then. She is a bit depressed as she can't go as much as she did. She just turned 89. Next year we'll have a big celebration for her birthday. Her male friend is my age (a little younger by a couple months) and 20 years or so younger than she is. He has really helped her out through all this. She helps him too as well. They live across the street from one another. She doesn't ty too many new things though as far as food is concerned. Lisolotte the one who is 91 would probably try about anything as far as food goes. Age is more a matter of the mind. Carolyn Wilkerson To: sproutpeople Sent: Wednesday, June 6, 2012 10:52 PM Subject: Re: Showing a friend my indoor garden!!!

Guest guest Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 My friend Angie has more energy than her grown children. Once, when there was a feast near my house, and they were blasting the music (this was 4 years or so ago when she was about 81, I went around the corner, ran into her and her family and I spun her around and we did the lindy hop in the street. We laughed and she was smiling and her 55 year old daughter was standing in the doorway sighing and saying " She doesn't stop, she just doesn't stop " I laughed and sai " She can stop when she's dead, she's not dead yet, why don't you join us " . She threw up her hands as if to say (you two are nuts). Believe me, we are not nuts. We find our rainbows. Angie has been finding her rainbows for life. She eats extremely well, she has all the health books. She takes Vitamin C and Resveratrol every day. And yeah, she has wrinkles and stuff but her attitude and way of moving is amazing. She does not have arthritis. Imagine an 85 year old woman who does not have arthritis? I asked her if she would like to try sprouting. She said'I'm never home, I go away for weeks at a time to my children's homes " . I said " They make portable sprout things called Hemp Bags, you just put your seeds, dip the bag in water and hang over a cabinet. She burst out laughing and said " My kids would never go for that " . She's right. So for 85, she's doing just right eating whatever she's eating and taking whatever she's taking. lol Melody > > > > Melody, tell your young friend she definitelydoes not look her age, she looks so much younger! > > > >  > > Want to understand the Bible better? > >  FREE  studies. > >  For more info Just ask! > > > > > > > > ________________________________ > > From: Melody <eliz7212@> > > To: sproutpeople > > Sent: Wednesday, June 6, 2012 7:20 PM > > Subject: Showing a friend my indoor garden!!! > > > > > >  > > Hi all. > > > > I had never shown my friend who lives around the corner, my indoor garden.
