Funny Old Ladies

It wasn't until much later that I noticed Violet's sweatshirt.?A picture of candy and flowers was sandwiched between the lines: 'You can't get me drunk, so you'll just have to work a little harder!'

"Cute sweatshirt," I said to Violet.?"Where'd you get it?"

She laughed.?"We had them made.?There's four of us.?We call ourselves 'The Booze-less Biddies.'?We're all in our seventies and eighties, and we're all sober."

"And you've all kept a sense of humor," I said.?"Gotta love that."

"Getting old isn't for the faint-hearted," Violet said.?"A sense of humor helps us get through the rough patches."

Today I will be grateful for a sense of humor, and hope I hold onto it into old age.
