Nana Biography

When I was out jogging the other day, up the road, and doing my best in helping some kids and bicycles coming along to pass me on the path, and the one in front said, “hi, grandmother. “And I just snapped back, “hi, sunny boy “. His friends started to laugh at him, but oh, to think, here I was in my jogging suit with my little cap on, and you know, right away you’re a grandmother. I don’t feel like one, and I don’t feel old, and I remember my mother saying the same thing. 

You know, she used to just dread getting old. She’d say, everybody does, and she really fought it. She didn’t want to be old, but she said, “it’ll happen. I think as you get older, maybe you think about it more. And if you aren’t wise, I don’t know whether you should plan for it so that your life is easier or not. I think maybe you shouldn’t. 

I think that you shouldn’t stop doing lots of things, you should keep doing them. And they only thing we do our business is trying not to have as many huge pictures so we don’t have to lift heavy things. So we get smaller things. That sounds funny, but sometimes in a year when I’ve had a crowd in, I’m lifting 20 or 30 times pictures, and it’s good for me, but I can see that maybe I won’t be doing that forever. so, contemplating old age, and I’ve talked about it, and I have my friend, she said she and her husband, and they’re both older than me, they think about it more. They think about more than you did he say 30. 30 it’s impossible that you’re going to get old,there’s no way you’re going to get old.
