SOMETIMES I WONDER IF THE KIDS AND THEIR BETTER HALVES EVEN REALIZE WHAT OLD AGE BRINGS. SITTING HERE AND SEEING THE FLOORS NEEDING CLEANING AND WINDOWS NEEDING WASHING AND ON AND ON AND ON. ME NOT ABLE TO DO IT ANYMORE.GRAMPS PUSHES HIMSELF EVERYDAY TO GET SOME THINGS DONE AND THE REST JUST SITS. HE HAS LOST ALOT OF WEIGHT THIS YEAR. THIS IS MY DEPRESSION [PITY PARTIES].THEN I READ YOUR STORY DOC AND SAY, LORD FORGIVE ME FOR FEELING THE WAY I DO ABOUT EVERYDAY THINGS. WE ALL HAVE THESE HEALTH PROBLEMS TO WHICH WE DO HAVE TO HAVE HUMOR OR WE'D CRACK. I DON'T EVEN DO COMPANY ANYMORE BECAUSE IT'S JUST TO MUCH STRESS KNOWING YOU CAN'T, NOT FEELING WELL TAKES AWAY THE JOY. AS LONG AS I SIT IN MY CHAIR I FEEL OK. IT'S JUST WHEN I TRY TO DO ANYTHING. GRAMPS BIRTHDAY IS THIS WEEK. HE GETS SO MAD AT ME. I'VE BEEN TELLING EVERYONE THAT HE'S 83 BUT HE'LL BE 82. I FIND HUMOR IN CALLING HIM 83. DOC. I'LL BE CHECKING IN MORE OFTEN TO HEAR HOW YOUR MAKING OUT. I WISH I HAD YOUR THINKING ON THINGS. I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN WHEN YOU SAY YOUR SO TIRED. ME TOO.<br />HUGS AND MERRY CHRISTMASAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6534989275451072860.post-73246226390192454222011-12-15T08:48:04.709-08:002011-12-15T08:48:04.709-08:00Brian,

Ladders and balance do not mix after 40.<br />You have so many people who care about you, worry over you, and pray for you.
