a friend emailed me with this web site, it is pretty well done and is somehow applicable to old timers like I'm getting to be.

That hit pretty close to home.... especially today. Two weeks ago an uncle called and asked if I would help them move. Since the last time I saw them was when I was helping another aunt move I was going to have to say yes. However I wasn't too worried because at that time they said the next move they would do would be to a retirement villa. So I said yes and right after I did he said you won't need to bring the work van because there is no driving. While still sharp of mind I knew it wasn't going to be fun after all. They were moving UPSTAIRS in the house they rent, (the landlord promised to put in a stair lift because my aunt has had two knee replacements oh joy). I lost count after the 70th trip down the 30ft driveway and up 18 stairs. The funny thing was when we got finished my aunt goes I would like to thank you kids for helping us out.... One nephew was 53, the other 49 and I am 45 it is all relative I guess.
