:O) I use to have patience, but at 72 have lost it...Now find I don't have patience with much of anything any more.

I hate to try and read that info. that comes with Medication...print to small, too much information that is useless but have to get out a magnifying glass to read all that crap just to check out the directions on how to take it...No patience anymore, throw the bottle against the wall then pick it up and start reading again..yikes.

Then there is the problem of finding the ingredients in an 18 pound bag of dog food, cuss under my breath, get out the mag. glass again and keep reading....no patience anymore.

Have gained a little wisdom...government sucks big time, politicians lie if their lips are moving. Everyone is out to screw you out of your money, poo on them, "love your family," it makes life worth living except for their teen years...ah wisdom. They grow up somewhat around 35...then you can hopefully stop worrying about them (yea right)... But God's cruel joke is really wrinkles and sagging skin as a reward for hitting 72...He and I must talk about that sometime...

And why is it everything breaks down at the same time...just put new brakes on car---503 dollars, also need struts (another 700 dollars) decided i didn't need them that bad. Tractor not working, son came out to fix it, its fixed but my trailer in the barn filled with another son's stuff and too heavy for me to life out...no more yard clean up until he moves the stuff...(one silver lining ).

Another son came out and put in a new exterior door for me..(see love your family written above) Son # 3 is taking me to the casino for a day trip..(see love of family above).

It just upkeep that keeps me out of patience...Need a new hot water tank, when it goes on I can hear the rust particles bouncing around...

Read in the bible that man's life span is 3 score and 10. If strong 80 years filled with sorrow and pain....Not filled with sorrow and pain, just filled with pi$$ed off at upkeep and mechanical things not running...:O)

A cardinal built a nest in one of the small evergreens in front of my house and when I try to weed that area, get dive bombed. Need a hard hat quick....Oh the joys of old age.

THEN BODY PARTS START TO WEAR OUT...OH WHAT FUN...cannot be an organ doner, parts have been used up and are worthless to anyone else....:O)

I had to go grab my glasses today to make sure I was actually taking asprin and not taking dog vitamins. LOL
