He felt like his face had also thinned out a little. His hair was a little fuller and was starting to get a little color. He brushed it aside, it must be different lighting.
He went through the rest of the day, getting the house in order. It was a nice house, small but plenty of amenities. A nice shower, decent closet space, more then he would ever need. A hot tub in the back, a nice patio. A big yard, which he thought might be nice to put in a pool as well.
He made lunch and watched the tv, the news was the usually downer it had been for so long. His daughter brought her kids by in the afternoon and the two of them watched them play in the yard. His daughter had always been smart, and would have been even more successful but she wanted a family life. They had named her Bailey, and she used to be a lawyer, but she retired when her third kid was born. Her husband was successful enough and she had earned enough to settle. They had a good talk and she planned to come over again the next day. Her brother would visit the next weekend when more time allowed.
After the kids left, he felt tired and went to bed early. When he woke up the next morning, he morning surprise felt even stronger then the previous morning. But he ignored it and got up, he was too old for childish things. He felt even more bounce in his step as he had more energy. He looked in the mirror, and again his face wasn't in the need for a shave. His body seemed to be slimming down, he had put on a lot of weight in his later years, but some of that seemed to be gone. His hair again looked more full, and some of the wrinkles seemed less pronounced. It seemed to be more then just the lighting.
