Healthy, wealthy, wise and beautiful

City Island is not far, you must visit there sometime. We didn't swim there but I met a cute guy there who was going to Rensselaer institute to study aeronautical engineering and dated him for a while. Met him at a Polish dance one Sat nite. Real nice tall blonde handsome guy. He also owned a sailboat since he lived with his brother and family at City Island, and they sailed a lot.

My dermatologist now calls anyone with a mole or several hundred of them on their backs etc. SUN WORSHIPPERS.....others too have said, "Oh those come from when you are young, they do not develop when you are older. Usually people who were sun worshippers in their youth have them." I never heard of that term before and didn't consider myself one...but must admit I WAS...

Taking off your bathing suit at home to shower and seeing the gorgeous browned skin made you feel healthy, wealthy and wise and beautiful and ready to take on the world. I still remember the feeling. I always wore a one piece suit. I was very thin about 120 lbs. always and one bathing suit was sort of a pinkish lavender with shiny speckles of silver and it was all puckered, one piece...Really cute.

But I dont remember ever going to the beach with Opa, he came from a different world...So a bathing suit never was the "eye catcher" for catching Opa, it was the tight white top and bright red short shorts that I wore that did it. I remember it well!!!!!!!!!!!

With my hair done I shall have to sleep sitting up tonite.

It was funny because I haven't shampooed my hair probably for one year now. I've had it done every two weeks. Which means, as you know, I have to keep it in for church and wherever I go, and that isn't easy when it's windy, rainy and just awful weather here since Jan and Feb, Mar and now April. At first I was able to do it pretty well, but as you know after a cut sometimes it doesn't look as good as you thought, then the frosting comes out and it's always a "going around circles type situation."

I had it foiled a little several months ago and was happy. However, no one ever said anything. Couldn't believe it, since there were blond streaks going down the front bang, delicately done. I was happy. Didn't look cheap. Good job. So I had to make the decision that people were jealous..Hahahahahahahah. Especially the old ladies my age who believe God gave us gray hair to convey our years of wonderful experiences of LIFE we have had. B.....S..... But the last few weeks I have had it teased more smoothly like a pageboy type in front and so it shows off the frosting more, but the hairstyle came out quicker. It stands to reason that ladies who frost their hair wear their hair smooth not teased. The teasing hides the frosting. But it was funny today I went in to have it cut and shampooed and teased up some and then came home and received your note. It was sort of funny, but so cute. Opa and I laughed. As you know, as the teasing comes down I still like the "do". At my age I'm happy that I still have hair on my head, some women get balding spots during menopause in their 40's. Its awful, and sad.I've abused my hair so much over the years its a wonder I still have any hair on my head. I must be lucky. It's like my face........... I never paid much attention to my skin much either until about 45 when I started using moisturizing cream. Used soap all my life. I'm sure that shocks you, who have taken care of your skin at an early age.....that's good.

Well thanks for the little sweet card, with my hair done I shall have to sleep sitting up tonite. Ha. Thats one thing about letting it "go." Bed is so comfortable as you toss your head from one side to another not caring about a "do."

Showed my dentist's asst. your photo the other day, as she knew your dad as a patient over there. As everyone........she was flabbergasted at your beauty..........You just Wow them all.

Are you able to WOW any guys yet down there, or no time for such trivial matters????

Get out to a dance and meet some guys before you're 50

Well I'm glad that things are going well at work. Your girlfriends are cute to say the things they say. Wonder what they are really thinking ha. ha. Me sending you winter scarves in August. Well, it will be cold before you know it.

Girl, you have to get out to a dance or some social activities to meet some guys before you're 50. Life goes fast. Know you work very hard and boy and girlfriends always want a lot of attention. But you have to start having some fun. You know our minister's son at church is single and is cute. Also one of the elders there has a cute son, he works at Ruth's Chris steak house and didn't want to go to college and so he quit, but he is very smart and wants to learn a lot about wines and go to wine school or whatever you call it and be a wine connoisseur. When your dad and I ate there we talked about wines and he knows a lot already. His parents are swell people. Real cute and down to earth. Oh well why am I mentioning this, you probably have guys running after you wherever you go and you're turning them all down because there is something wrong with them. Well there is something wrong with ALL MEN.....Ha.

Well I shall close now and go to bed, I'm starting to fall asleep at the machine. Ha. It was good hearing from you and glad you are o.k. and life pretty good. Make things happen, Babe...You can do it!!!!!!!!!!! Love you much and hope we see you soon. Hugs all the way......love Om and all
