    I hope I live as long as it said. I would be 3 years younger than my great-grandmother at the time she died...103!

    ROFL Mine was 97. I was thinking the same thing. I have relatives that live well into their 80 and 90 so who knows. DH is older then me so I am not sure if I would want to live till 97. I might get a bit lonely.

    Mine is 91. My stash will probably last that long, but I'll need thread and batting and backing. If I have health, good eyes, and the ability to quilt, it should be nice.

    I'm not sure I want to live that long, because I won't have any brains left...

    When the Lord is ready for me to come home, he'll call me. However, the calculator said 99! Always said I never wanted to live that long as having seen so many people in their 80s and 90s sitting around with blank stars and drool coming out of their mouths...sad but true. I already have trouble with thumb pain and hands aching, forgetful, back problems, digestive problems, etc. Ugh! That sounds really badly... I think I'll just trust the good Lord and not the calculator!!

    82 - even with stress, little exercise, and some family heart history, but they depend mostly on no smoking recreational drugs, seat belts. No questions about health problems. I'm with quiltjoey, when the Lord is ready for me, I'll come. I am positive my stash will not get used up before my hands can still sew to use it all.
