…are both 71. Both
blonde – and that’s where the similarities end. This past Sunday’s Parade
magazine had her and her age on the cover.
(Actually, she’s a year or so older. She’s 71; I’m only in my 71st
year.)
I do know from past reading that she sleeps far less than I
do – maybe four hours a night, so she’s packed a lot more activity into her
life than I’d ever dreamed of when I was asleep and she was awake and
productive. She’s a gal who knows what
she wants and knows how to get it, and I admire her for that.
Darn, I wish I’d saved all my issues of Living – I was a
charter subscriber. After a while I no
longer wanted to give all those issues house room, so I went through them, cut
out some of her greatest ideas, and recycled the rest. I’ve rarely disagreed
with her methods, and I applaud the easy-to-follow way the magazine presents to
those who’ve really got no clue how to do things like polish silver, fold a
sheet, and keep their clothes. I know of many gals whose mothers never taught
them basics like those.
And Martha is a lot more fit than I am – I’ll have to work
on that!
