Aging…

About four years ago Dolly Parton hit the stage to sing her new Rock song for the Rock and Roll hall of fame induction. As I sit here and contemplate my life and my age. I see those who I grew up with either getting older (even those who are younger than me) kids that where very young teen adults now in their early 50s. Me, I am 62. But, I look at Dolly and yes I worry about her not because she is ill and really not about her, but for the mere fact she is in her 80s and although she has had a very full and blessed life, when she goes I know it will be heartbreak for many of us. I am not much of a fan of Country Music, but I adore Dolly Parton. I wish her many more years of life to come, I‘m just not sure if it’s for selfish reasons. One thing I do know it will be a very sad day for many of us, once we do eventually lose her.

Turning 62 Hmm… yes, sixty-two. I remember, quite clearly, being ten years old and talking with friends and family about what the world would be like by the time I reached this age. How many of us did that back in the 1970s? I know I did. Back then, sixty-two felt impossibly far away. Adults would tell us, “Don’t wish your life away it’ll get here faster than you think.” Turns out, they weren’t wrong. Not even a little. As of the moment I’m writing this, I’m not technically sixty-two yet that’s still two short months away. And of course, this year isn’t a leap year (LOL), so no bonus day for me. Looking back, fifty of those years seem to have flown by at record speed. At ten, it felt like an eternity. Now? Blink and you miss it. My life took a very different path than the one I imagined and honestly, not the one I wanted either. But here I am. If I can claim any victory at all, it’s this: I’m still here. It’s not ideal, but it’s not entirely bad either. Why This Blog Exists The purpos...

This is a good time to remind ourselves to leave DNA tracing websites alone, because I would throw up turning myself inside out, if I ever discovered I was related to any of these thugs? They are a simple waste of the human skin they invade. And what’s more scary to me is that piece of trash McConnell is from Kentucky the state my late mother was born. I pray that the Universe doesn’t land a terrible joke on my doorstep. Because the Republican Party today is nothing more than the shit stains from Trump’s diarrhea!

Happy Birthday to Me!

Well Happy 62nd Birthday to me LOL Yep it has finally happened. I have officially become a Senior Citizen, unless of course they pivot the goal post again. Seems like they’re pushing the senior moniker to 65 now, I am starting to see many places using the term 65 as the new senior age.   While that may be okay because hey not being called a Senior is kind of a nice thing I am tired of the post being moved.  Every since I was about to turn 18 when they moved the drinking age to 21 just as I was hitting 18 (pissed me off) in the 70s you were considered a Senior at the age of 55.  But as they would have it nope, you’re not consider a senior until you’re 62.  Well I am 62 now! To be honest it’s a bit amazing to be 62, It just seems like yesterday I was 10 years old thinking about what my life would be like when I reach this age and now here I am! LOL
