MAGGIE AND ME

Margaret and Robert - 2015
The snap was taken on the night of Maggie's 84 birthday celebration.  84.  What a lot of years.

Margaret is a sweet old lady.  Mind, that does not mean that Margaret is all sugar at all times.  Maggie has a mind of her own and is not afraid to speak it.  Can be a bit sharp at times.

I have know Margaret for about 6 years.  Used to visit with her and always loved to hear her stories.

Times change and now I am Landlord to Margaret.  She lives in a one bed room apartment.  She has lived in this apartment for 25 years.  The rent was $150.00 way back when and all these years later it is still only $395.00.  That is for a one bed room apartment in Waikiki, just a few blocks from the beach.

Margaret does not get out much, she has a problem walking.  She dow sit out on her lanai every day and take in the sun.

Margaret is a smoker.  Has been all of her life.  One after another.  When asked about this, Margaret simply says that she smokes and that is the end of the story.

I am quite fond of Maggie.  I try to visit oft and run errands for her.  Truth be told, Maggie can be a little needy at times.  Complains I do not come by oft enough for her taste...
