BIRTHDAYS...CONSIDER THE ALTERNATIVE!

That is what people say after you moan or groan about the accumulated years following your birth. On one hand I am in total agreement and on the other I am in awe that I am so old!! How did THAT happen! Taking account of all body parts and workings I feel lucky to just have a sore knee and screeching sciatica on occasion. We wont talk about crepey cleavage and "laugh lines". (I must have spent most of my life laughing!) Blurry vision, baggy knees and a brand new desire for an afternoon nap are other hallmarks of my present age. I AM happy to be around to celebrate yet another year and look forward to as many more of them as I am allowed!
