Folks, sometimes I am somewhat tired at the end of the day. I have recently identified it as “old age.”

I am way too spent to do those evening exercises! I promise, tomorrow I’ll double up on my walking. Me and my old friend, Sally Walker, will roll along and sing our song.

My dear, sweet neighbor, recently took a tumble. However, she is back up and walking along.

A shout out to those big, kind firemen that came to the rescue.

I expect she will be sailing along in short order. A little tumble is not going to keep this one down.

These dear sisters here in my building are tough as a boot. They are a neverending inspiration. There is not one griper, complainer, bossy, mean or stingy one in the whole bunch.

I’m telling you, old age is coming along at a really good time.

We have made it through the challenges of young adult and motherhood and all those other hoods!

One of the things nobody ever tells you about being elderly is, that it’s such a nice change from being young.

However, we haven’t stopped learning.

Oftentimes, we learn what not to do and what not to be, as senior adults.

Let’s just tell it like it is! Some dear folks you come in contact with, you walk away feeling like you just had a giant suck on a sour lemon.

And, that’s ok. We can still love them. You just don’t have to invite them to dinner!

Think on this:

Being of this age we don’t have to go to school or work. We get an allowance every month to spend as we wish. We have our own apartment. We stay out as long as we wish with no one to answer to. We have a driver’s license and our own car. We can use our car anytime we wish without asking permission.

Oh yeah, we can take a nap only if we choose. And, eat only chips and dip for a week if we choose.

Heard this concerning exercise: “If God wanted me to touch my toes, He would’ve put them on my knees!”

Have you heard this one?

A man fell in the lake and was drownin’ when a feller come along and pulled him out.

The man’s preacher said, “You ought to give that feller fifty dollars for savin’ your life!”

The man said, “Could I make that twenty-five dollars? I was already half dead when he pulled me out.”

Whoohoo!!
