Turning 60

Well it's official. I have now reached the big 60!!! It's hard to believe that I have reached this landmark. Mentally, I would say I was much younger. Physically is another story. Actually, I feel pretty good. Last year I joined Weight Watchers the Saturday before my Mom died and have lost 35 pounds so far. This is my second year of getting back into bowling which has shown me that I still can be the athlete (to some degree) that I used to be growing up.
It's been difficult since my Mom died, but I feel a peace knowing that she is not suffering anymore and is with all her relatives that have gone before her. My Dad is doing well and getting by with his routine of Church, bowling and meeting with friends at Judy's for breakfast everyday! We still go to visit him every other week-end and he enjoys the company and love that we have to offer him.
I went by the Church the other day to get Helen's address so I could surprise her with some meatloaf from Iowa Farms and realized how much I had missed not being there for a couple weeks. Just walking up to the office, I felt like this is my true home in San Diego!
I'm running out of things to say, so I will see you all in Church on Sunday! GO CHARGERS!!!
