Very pretty. My grandmother and great-grandmother had pretty, nice long hair like you, not quite as pretty of a shade as yours. You look at least 10 years younger than your age, heck maybe 15. Nice to "meet" you!

Thank you Qwackertoo. Nice to meet you too!!

Ford, I think you are an amazing woman and not many of us still look that great in our older age. I too am short (5foot even) and I have a nose like yours!

You really do look like a model. Best wishes to you and may you be blessed with good health.

Lovely picture Ford, you are soooo pretty. I feel like I really know you now. I'm sad that you and your daughter's marriages didn't work out. Such pretty, strong, and intelligent ladies often seem to face challenges with men. Glad you enjoyed spending time with your family. Hope year 77 brings you much joy and happiness, you certainly deserve it.

That's due to the men's issues. {#emotions_dlg.thumbdown} So it really isn't "sad" at all, IMHO.

That wasn't hijacking, JSS. It's your opinion and I agree. I like some men, but my brothers drive me crazy, they are so bigoted. One has done well in life financially, and the other is still "finding himself." (ages 70 and 74, respectively) One is bright and one is somewhat dim. But both are incredibly intolerant. Fortunately, they are both afraid of me, so when I say "enough!" they shut up!! [There are some advantages to being the oldest, LOL.]

Ford, you are a stunner! Can't believe you're 77! Thank you for posting your pic, you inspired me to go out shopping for some updated, cute clothes and I am twenty years younger than you!

Well, I give credit to my youngest daughter who bought that sweater for me for Christmas (not from the Q). It is a little big on me, but I love it just the way it is. I will find different ways to wear it. I plan to wear it again when I go out to dinner this week with my old work friends.

Thank you Sawn for your kind comments.
