“... our 7 year old Lexus is still great”.

Mrs. Grampa Dave has a wonderful sense of humor!!!

She has a great sense of humor and even though I manage our IRAS and her 401K, and pay the monthly bills, she is a great believer in not buying something new when what we owns works and maybe better.

We own one tv in the family room and it is a 25 year old RCA 25 inch with a great picture and suprisingly good sound. We had two Comcast guys tell us it was one of the best pictures they knew of and gave us a card with their home # if we ever wanted to sell it.

She has been a Talbot lady for decades and had some clothes that she was a little large for. She had an operation, loss some weight and has recycled those clothes and had the larger ones altered. I offered to buy new ones, and she said why. I did buy some Talbott’s stuff for this Christmas. On that shopping trip, she had a 25+ year old Talbott jacket and was asked where she had bought it by a young sales lady. Her reply at a Talbott’s before you were born dear.
