About Betty,

[kozar]

If it were me, and my God or Diety called me up or down 18 days before my 100 birthday. I would be screaming all the way, “ ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS?””” I am fairly confident Betty did the same.

1. Always leave them wanting more.

2. The matriarch of our family died a few years ago at the age of 99.

The prospect of a 100th birthday party brought nothing but dispair.

At 99, she was DONE! She had all of her faculties, was a voracious reader, but she woke up every morning saying "THIS IS JUST RIDICULOUS!". Her friends had all been gone for decades, and she felt her mission was complete.

She left peacefully...content that she did not have to fake the joy of being a centenarian.

3. Sweet.

4. i said the other day that i expect to see that day, whether i like it or not.

i suspect i wont.
but the women in my family seem to have the gift of letting go. very few instances of long stints in nursing homes, or home in bed.

5. Yes, this would very much be in keeping with her personality.
