LOL<br /><br />Margo, that coffee sure smelled good in the morning. I was just too lazy to get up at 6am to join you. LOL I needed that extra hour.<br /><br />Alison, happy upcoming birthday to you, too. I never would've given dementia a thought if not for Mom. The docs said the likelihood increases as we age. I'll keep writing and stave it off.<br /><br /><br /> Diane Burtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03754105332297068271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9023937099212820339.post-49955346255108013982016-09-30T12:44:09.971-04:002016-09-30T12:44:09.971-04:00It sounds like you and Margo had a great time.

And my doctor, who I secretly call Doctor Blue Eyes (if he knew how many romances his eyes were in, he'd charge me double for a visit) said much the same thing about my writing keeping me mentally young.

These journeys in the car are when/where I get to know my friends best and I cherish that more than the visits to new golf courses! Glad you had fun, Diane. Good luck with your novella!
