Casual Conversations

I called up my folks last night and talked to them for awhile. As it often does, the conversation took a turn through our various health problems. Afterward something struck me funny. I expected that as we get older I'd have more things in common with my parents. I just never imagined it would be heart problems.

My mother has recently taken painting classes and is having great fun painting various places from her memories. I look forward to seeing the results. I'm also glad to see her enjoying her retirement a little.

Indeed, it's taking only what, eight to ten years since her official retirement for her to actually start retiring?
