MADsMom's Blog

I first posted this blog in June 2007, on the entertainment pages.  A little lightheartedness for a Friday, its been a far too serious blogging week. Hope you all have a good weekend, and that you try this, its interesting.  Well, off to PA this afternoon for a spa weekend with my girlfriends, hope you all have a good one!

Hey all!  This is a website where you can enter certain information about yourself, both personal and health related (there are no ultra-personal questions, things like are you a smoker/drinker, family history of diabetes, are you married), and the "calculator" will give you an age projection up to 100 years old.  You do need to know a few things about your family history as well.

I thought it was pretty neat, but you have to be honest about your answers (for instance, it does ask you how much you weigh and how tall you are).  I just did mine, and it projected my longevity to 92.

I hope so....that would probably be fun, and its probably not too far off base.  My parents are both living and well at 85 and 75, and both of my grandmothers lived to 100 years of age, grandfathers were 64 and 80.  We will see....try it and tell what number you got.

Something a little less serious for all of us to blog about today.....sometimes we are all far too serious.

Hmm, mine was 81, I was actually expecting it to be a little lower considering my father and his parents died pretty young, in the 54-63 year range.

Sam_in_DC, I was ALSO calculated an 81.

Either we are some healthy "Dudes", or it is stuck on 81.
