There isno sense in asking anyone toread aloud. Everyone speaksin such low voices that I canhardly hear them.The material in dressesis so skimpy now, especiallyaround the waist and hips.It is almost impossible toreach my shoelaces.Photo by Lori KeetchEven people are changing.They are so much youngerthan they used to be when Iwas their age. On the otherhand, people my age are somuch older than I am.I ran into an old classmatethe other day, and she hadchanged so much (aged) thatshe did not recognize me.I got to thinking aboutthe poor thing while Iwas combing my hair thismorning, and in doing so Iglanced at my reflection . . .confound it!
