Sure would be nice to celebrate key birthdays with these friends who are so cagey about revealing their ages.
Anyway their choice. A few wks. ago , the older friend that I mentioned at beginning of this thread, cheerfully and suddenly told me, as we were admiring some stained glass art in a historic church, that she had planned her funeral service. Needless to say, I was quite surprised at unprompted/unasked info. but then she has been a minister's daughter..long ago. She has been to several funerals in past few years...and it's given her some ideas for her own.
I haven't revealed to some work colleagues that their parents are ...in same age bracket as I. Then some tell me about their parent's health problem...to which I politely listen and offer some minor food choice changes perhaps they could bring to their parent for a dinner. These are people who hardly know me (and nor am I interested in them knowing more).
