Mundane may seem tame, but to me...





...To me it is better than an ice cream Sunday on Saturday!

Sure we complain when life is so quiet but isn't it true that many of us complain when it does the exact opposite?

Today, I went grocery shopping with Hubby for the first time in ages, and we worked the list together and then I was able, due to my trusty scooter, Blue Belle, to gather up additional items while he was already at the check-out line!

A non-burden type of feeling, able and competent to be an equal in every-way.

When not scooter capable I would be a dependent; due to of course the inability to maneuver myself without many crashes all because of being perceptually impaired with one legally blind eye and the other fine tuned/lens for reading, not going the distance.
Life became a wee bit better with each renewed ability realized!

Mundane to many, but to me it was better than seeing that shiny new car for the very first time.

We all know that we can never buy health, but when it resolves with intervention by knowledgeable professionals... WOW what a feeling!

And I hope that I never ever forget where I came from and where I have arrived.

The other item to many that may be trite or somewhat ordinary is hearing from their loving child or children, but not for me ever!

Each phone call received from number one son is a joy to behold!

Life is too short and precious to not realize that joy.

Moving on…

This week in the news the news reinforced those feelings with too many deaths happening…

From those high schoolers, drivers and chaperones on that tour bus that ten died, to the Fort Hood tragedies of three deaths and so many more injured, to our own local Meteorologist Jim Reif shocking too soon demise, due to an accident so horrific on a bicycle TBI…with all those slashed children in Pennsylvania…
We all must remember that when we awake and our loved ones are alive and well and happy that is a celebration…!

And no, I will never deny my age for without that number how would any of us know that we are getting older and each and everyday that is what we all should strive for, to get as old as we can!
For if we don’t…
Then there is only death.

So let us all get as old as we can and be very, very, very proud of that fact daily!

Thank whomever you believe in, whether a holy entity or just yourself… be thankful for each and everyday…
Because, why?
One never knows, does one?

And I will like to say thank you to all of you for reading this drivel, and in spite of that fact you all come back to be assaulted verbally nightly and it is more than appreciated more than you all know, I’m just saying…

On that note of hope this age thingy hasn’t gotten your goat, allow me to be the very first to wish all of you a very happy good night and ask all of you to kindly count all your blessings, really, and we will too!

And next time please be here or be square, ya hear?

PS I am currently 63 years young and if I am lucky by July I will be 64!

Which way will the war go?
