HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO JO! (AND AN UPDATE)

Currently in Kerrville TX (Low 36 Clouds and then Sun High 67) 

Jo celebrates her 70th birthday today.


We cannot believe that we met almost 30 years ago and have been married twenty-six and a half years. Bob cannot believe he got so lucky to spend his life with such an amazing woman. Happy Birthday Jo!!

In honor of Jo's brother-in-law Bennie Jo got her free meal at Denny's earlier today. There isn't as many free birthday meals in this area so we have to get what we can.

It seems like all we have done is doctor's appointments and we amassed a pretty amazing list; colonoscopy, cardiologist, teeth, thyroid, podiatrist, dermatologist, new glasses, etc. We saw this great quote from Mike Mills of "Phannie and Mae" that sums it up pretty good, "I have to confess that, since I've never gotten old before, I was a bit unprepared for the seemingly endless treks to health professionals that must be made in order to keep getting this carcass out of bed every morning. I'm not complaining, however; there are so many who don't get the privilege of getting old, much less leading the active lifestyle we enjoy. All I can say is, Thank God ..."

Well said Mike, couldn't have said it better.

Till next time,

Bob and Jo

  2. Happy birthday Jo. I agree with Paul and Marsha. No way do you look or act 70. We get a break from those doctor appts for a couple of months. Hope your reports are turning out good news.

  3. Thanks for the shout out, Jo! I never miss your posts--so good! Seventy, you say? There must be some mistake--not possible! By the way, we're going to be nearby in Fredericksburg for a few days beginning Sunday. We'd like to look you up. You're at Schreiner Park? Here's our email: mike.sandy.mills@gmail.com.
