If you haven't heard of this wonderful lady from North Dakota, here you go; her life is a lesson for us all... work hard and live with purpose! Thank you, Myrtle.
That's right where I want to be when I'm 106 too! I'm not even middle aged yet so can't be complaining about much of anything. ;-) Thanks for sharing her story.
I am in awe. What an example! Did you see what she sits on to sew? Not some soft, ergonomic chair--a step stool! Love her spirit. Too young for a nursing home!! Great story!
Yes, this is a great story. What I want to be doing at that age! She reminds me of another life-long North Dakota woman--my mom. At the age of 88, she is still in her own home and cooking for herself.
