I just have to ping Kay, every now and then.

Since I've moved back to the old neighborhood, I get a lot of the same in real life. Old so-and-so? Oh, he died about 8 years ago. I get lots of that. And a few suprises. It's uncomfortable when you run into someone that you assumed would be dead, and he had the same assumption about you.... "Sh*t? You're still alive?!"

The joys of growing older.

At this moment, I’m not so sure about the “joys” of growing older. Perhaps I’m just tired. It is easy to be negative when you’re tired.

We’re back at home and basically, I spent the weekend looking at things beyond my budget and feeling that I wasn’t really being listened to when discussing what I wanted and needed. I’m told that I only need certain programs about 20% of the time and that 80% of the time, I just play and surf. Therefore, I don’t need ....

Maybe so. But, dadgummit, I need to get that 20% done and the rest is indeed optional.

Yes, the joys of growing older...”I’ve known her all my life, but for the life of me, I can’t remember her name,,,,
‘OH, Hi sweetie how are you, haven’t seen you in church for awhile”. “Oh it’s so nice you remember my nic-name”. LOL
Yep, growing older is fun and surprising, sometimes. You’ve left your “farm”?

Well, as long as they aren't correct.
