I can relate re living in an apt and especially to shingles - been there, done that, t-shirt to prove it no longer fits. I, on the other hand, do have fits. Years ago I thought about RD and the NYer but never did - most of what I post may have my own twist but isn't truly original, hence all the Elses - Somebody, Anybody, Nobody Else and their relatives. And then there are quips from my maternal grandmother, who said of a friend who was aging gracefully, "He's gonna look like hisself the rest of his life." Hats off to you, Nana!
