I had a haircut last week done by Rose. She has been cutting my hair since October 2020 according to this post. It is nice to be able to check back in my blog because the years go by and you lose track. This time, I decided to ask her how old she is. She told me to guess, and I got as far as '75'? Okay, she is 80! She stopped colouring her hair awhile back. She drives some 20 minutes to work a few times a week, gardens, exercises at home for 45 minutes a day and eats healthy food. Travelling does not appeal to her anymore, she has been to Hawaii 3 times, 'no need to go again'. She is content living alone with her routines. Yes, she is an amazing lady, a mother of 3 sons according to my post in 2020.
I started booking my appointments online as this place offers that now.

What a coincidence! My good friend was just talking about her hairdresser who is around 80 also. Diane is worried she's going to retire soon and then what will she do? Uuuummmm... she's hinting that it'd be great if I would cut her hair. No way... that's too spooky. I cut mom and Art's hair because they don't mind if I goof.
Envy her great shape!
Mum is 75 and she does not like to travel anymore
If we get an argument, Ingo and I, I search my blog and can proof either of us is right (not always me).
A strong lady, your hair cutter!
Good for her at her age still so active!
This happened somewhat to me. My dentist told me she was retiring in the fall. I figured she was around 60. No, she is 75. Holy cow. I guess I am not a good judge of people's ages. Happy Satruday.
So good to get an update! Wow, she is impressive. And enjoying life too. Although, being a hairstylist is definitely hard work. Thanks for the Saturday post!
Living alone has some good points :D
very inspiration women
Great Lady indeed!
In less than 2 years, I'll be 80, too old to work.
Great lady. Have a wonderful weekend, hugs!
She does sound like an amazing lady.
Being a hairdresser and standing on her feet is hard work.
Living alone with her routines, not coloring her hair anymore, tired of travelling - sounds normal at her age.
Anche a me non piace viaggiare.
Buon fine settimana.
Oh my gosh. She truly is amazing.
Our vet is pushing eighty also.
Now, that's one remarkable lady, Christine. If God gives me that many years, I do hope I can be as healthy as she is.
Blessings!
Parece una genial persona. Te mando un beso.
She does sound amazing.
All the best Jan
Her story is impressive and the fact that she is active in her 80s.
Another utility of the Blog, you can better understand the present by going back to the past!
Thanks for sharing about Rose, I admire her very much, such a brave lady. Years ago I had a sweet friend from Shanghai who was widowed and brought up five children. She was my best friend when we lived in California and lived just down the road. I was in the garden one day and she stopped for a chat. We were neighbors and friends for many years. Sadly she is gone now but I will always treasure the memory of our friendship.
big thanks for sharing about her dear Christine
i love knowing such inspirational people who live an idea life without being harmful to themselves and others as well
i respect her .she is perfect human being
