Gary, May God continuing blessing your life!
God & Your Wife, kept you alive past the dreaded 65!
Wives are great that way sometimes.
Doing things like dangling an
AMNPS in front of our nose to keep us going, LOL
Congrats on both of your gifts!
You will enjoy both equally, my friend!
AMNPS makes life more fun. And more fun, makes us live longer.
I'm almost 69, and still smoking (both cigs, and meat) in spite of age,and health maladies, that beset us, as we grow older.
There are many members here who are much older than us, with much worse health problems, and are weaken some now, who still manage to smoke a lot of food that they love. (Pop's comes to mind.) They'll do it until they die too. Just like us.
So don't worry so much about family history in death.
Dad lived to 89,
my oldest sister to only 26, a few months after her 6th child was born.
I've had both, older and younger than I, siblings pass away. It hurts, but it is life ways. Only God knows your time. Don't second guess Him!
However, I do doubt, that any of us 4 remaining (out of 8 kids), will beat my Mom's 100+ years of living, while maintaining her faculty's, except for eyesight to the end..
