At first I was surprised to notice these awful hanging fragments. Grabbing my bifocals, I ripped them from underneath my chin. I was stunned (actually horrified) when they grew back. The books say to embrace the quality of life, especially as we get to see more birthday cake candles. But there are days...Are you seeing any of the followng "life qualities?"
A physical shape changing to the pear's outline or a stranded bowling pin profile
Skin texture resembling crepe paper
Under-eye bags stayng around 24/7 and not just after a late night party
Pre-dawn nature calls to the loo
Hammocks hanging in the place of my triceps and not out on my lanai (patio)
An eyeglasses' chain as a permanent hanging chest fixture
The 15 lbs gained in 1992 are still around and around and around
Losing my patience is now an almost chronic condition
The knocking knees which been labeled "creaking" by the doctor
Remembering when a waistline "muffin top" was called "love handles"
Having an oldest child two years from the age of fifty
"Those noisy kids" being my own darling grandsons ;)
And they are only capable of organic boisterous music.
