My eldest sister will be 77 tomorrow, so I'm going to give her a call this afternoon. Yesterday David and I received a big box of gifts from her...coloring books, colored pencils, pens that light up, hand towels, cards, and she gave me a belated birthday gift...a lovely sterling silver bracelet with an engraving inside about sisters. I treasure it. I set it in my bedroom so I can see it, rather than locking it away.
It's hard, because we lost our "middle" sister 4 years ago. It's painful for me; I miss her sooo much. But I feel especially sad for my oldest sister, to have lost her younger sister.
I'm going to take a shower and do laundry. Walking up and down the stairs to the laundry room will either help me wake up or tire me out

My oldest sister is in her seventies too, both my older sister s are. It always shocks me when I realize that but then it shocks me that I’m in my 60’s! I guess I think of us as always teens.
