I never thought getting old would happen so fast---

Good Morning-- To-day is Saturday, June13th-not too cold in here--kinda a tad hot----I just turned on the AC--So, Lopez and I are up--Sushi not yet-----and yes, I do feel "older than old" this AM--  want to go back to bed--but--  pets need to be fed--bed needs to be made--wash needs to be started--Oh--there is a long list--I guess all these chores must be good for me--  maybe reminds me that I'm not quite "over the hill"-there are still chores --altho the children have "flown the coup"-just the dog and the cat left at home--
    I really never thought getting old would happen so fast--So-The cat is fed-- And Lopez and I must line up my 60O,000 pills-(the chores that  "older" people have to go thru to survive!)-

Above--  my little yard--which I am still working on--but everyday, it improves--The flower bed in the back needs more additions--more plants-- more water--more love--a lot more of everything-
Lopez sand I must  "hoof" it up the road--before all the other dog walkers are out there--and-- we were successful--but we had to follow another dog walker which Lopez continued to bark at--Oh the joys of living in a village where most of us are Seniors and we all walk our dogs early each morning--So---

Words I wish I had written-
#1. An intelligent person is one who knows when to keep his mouth shut--
#2.Keep your desk neat.
#3.Make choices out of love.
#4.Listen much and speak little.
#5. Smile

Holy Cow--Time to get off of here and on with our day--Hold your head up high--Use common sense to rule your life-look up, not down--and remember that everyday should be a new experience--Now go-get offa here-- and make to-day  your best day ever!
