Thought it time to come clean ...I don't like any photo of myself these days because I don't recognise me...however since I'll be 86 soon thought I'd post a recent one while I still can...my brain seems to be the only part of me still working fairly well.

You're beautiful Silk. You sure don't look like you're gonna be 86. It's so nice to be able to put a face with a name.

You're lying about your age, Silk! I hope that I look as good as you at 86. You are gorgeous! Thanks for sharing your beautiful photo.

I agree, you don't look your age. I'm younger but I look older.

Heyyyyy good looking, what's ya got cooking...........
I have the photo you shared when Crazy Lady was doing out mini's and I must say, you have aged beautifully. I love this photo of you and I think you should be very pleased with your photo.
I know what you mean about things not working well though. LOL
Thank you for sharing your photo with us.

Silk I have a photo that you posted in 2009. You still have the same smile, the same eyes and the same hair, though I can't tell if the color is different because the photo from 2009 was in color and this one is black and white. Different glasses, but definitely the same person. And still as elegant as before. I think all of us in out late 60's early 70's hope that we look as good when we reach your wonderful years. We are thrilled and honored that you still find the time to spend it with us and share your talent.

Thank you everyone. You are all so generous. Huronna the photo you speak of was I think a few years old when I posted it and I did colour my hair then...now it is au naturel although in this photo the colour doesn't show well. Going 'silver ' was so liberating and much cheaper !! Thank you for those lovely warm words...I am sure this group has helped to keep my brain functioning...the challenges I particularly enjoy because they test us....I love working on them. ♥

I also remember your previous photos, what an elegant woman you are and I simply cannot believe you will be 86 and looking as lovely as ever with the silver/gray hair. Great to see you Silk and it's been great being acquainted w/you over all these years.
I still color my hair as my white is blochy/spotty and I look like a Dalmation. Hoping for more white to come in all over so I can stop as well. I so envy blondes. My husband and his sister have beautiful white hair, silky and gorgeous. Oh well...but, you my dear look gorgeous even in black and white!!! No pun intended.

Thank you Flagryl . I remember you from at least one other group I belonged to . I still remember those lovely vector flowers you made...I think in a vase but not sure about that. I know I coveted them. I have a shampoo that prevents grey hair having that yellowish look and gives it a lovely silver sheen....doesn't show in the photo. Last week I had my hair cut in a very modern style and Julien my eldest son told me it's the best style you've ever had Mum.,..imagine waiting until I am 86 to find that style LOL. haven't a photo of it yet. I remember you having lovely hair from photos you posted.

I'm thinking that by 'recent photo', you mean 20 years ago? There's no way that I'm buyin' 86 years.
I should be so beautiful....grumble...grumble

Silk, what a great photo. Ditto on what everyone else has said. It's hard to believe you are in your 80s.

You are beautiful! I had no idea you were that age and from your photo, you certainly do not look it. I'm past hoping that I look good when I get older, I just hope my mind is still sharp like yours is. You are thirty years my senior and sharper than I am most days, lol. Thanks for sharing yourself with us!
