Everything is further away than it used to be. It is twice as far to the corner and they added a hill, I've noticed. I have given up running for the bus - it leaves faster than it used to. It seems to me they are making steps steeper than in the old days and have you noticed the smaller print they use in the newspapers! There is no use in asking anyone to read aloud; everyone speaks in such a low voice that I can hardly hear them. The material in dresses is getting so skimpy, especially around the waist and hips. Even people are changing; they are so much younger than they were when I was their age. On the other hand, people my own age are so much older than I am. I ran into an old friend the other day and she had aged so much she didn't even recognise me. I got to thinking about the poor thing while I was combing my hair this morning and in doing so I glanced at my reflection, and ..confound it...they don't even make good mirrors any more!
