it has hit and i don"t like it

yes, i never paid much attention, i thought it was just a tall tale but old age  starts to take a toll, Am I old? i dont think so, I am 60 and i think that is middle age now,on the other hand when Anita was in thr hospital last week i decided to walk home for a while. Its only about a mile and a half,  wasnt a problem at 5:30am, i rather enjoyed it! leg sore muscles were expected, I havent walked that far in a long time. Anita is home now, and Iv learned
to know as much as nurses and how to apply that. and i need to get up and walk a mile at 5:30 am walking in the park that time of morning is great! Im gonna try, But old man age has slapped me in the face! I stay up late, sleep late when things are normal, body parts are sore, iv developed the grouchy old man attitude in public, My own children will walk away from me ina super-store, i enbarasse them. because i have no problem asking a person with a buggy full og stuff in the 10 items or less lane if they know how to count. i guess they dont! and the store dont enforce it!, that ticks me off!! I have less than 10 items and i wanna aget the heck outta there!!!! Ok im done ranting,  and i love every one who puts up with my ramblings!

post fathers day

yea, fathers  me a happy fathday, so what, My oldest daughter did call me and dappy fathers day, as did my younger sister, my second born? well he has borrowed every lawn tool i have (havent seen my weedeater in 2 yrs) so he didnt call or come by and he owes me money. the 3rd  daughter lives less than a mile from me and hasnt spoke to me in 3yrs! and oh yea the youngest daughter, she called this morning and hung up on me because i didnt have money to loan her! I kinda hoped for a reconcilitation with daughter  #2 today but it didnt happen. I will not lose sleep over it. they are young, everybody hates their parents at one point, been there, done that! but eventually you grow up and realize that every one has faults, even your parents! and if ya hold a grudge just a littke to long, Bam! there gone and there is no makeup time there gone! I am sure i was an a$$ at times to my parents, but there gone, i would have loved to talk to my father today but i caint! well in my mind yes i can, i will pray tonite to god and i know dad is listening!

fathers day

yes im a father now,  my father has been gone for a long time. I miss him, he taught me everything i know now! he taught me humility, respect for your fellow man & woman, to humble, to take life with an attitude that you get what you put into it. He taught me to be a man! honesty,dont expect more than you deserve,hard work, and believe in God! and if you do those simple things life will treat you well! well i have followed those rules, iv strayed  from time to time,but i manage to come back and life is good! sometimes we seem to forget that we are immortal, we live forever, our parents live through us, we live through our children and they live their children, so a little piece of us is always walking this planet earth! and will be for generations to come. I hope i have passed on some of these traits to my children, im sure i haven some just figure it out sooner than others, some later, but they (we) all get it eventually! and on that note,I miss you Dad,I thank you for all you taught me!

grouchy old man rambling

I may wander from time to time on thoughts. I hate shopping in the super store,especially at the 1st of the month but i have no choice! faimly re unions on every lane,people talking on cell fones to a person 2 lanes over, neighbors who live next door block and talk like the havent seen each othe in 5 yrs, a man turns his bugggy and blocks and stares at milk?  are you kidding me? its MILK! already, pick one and move along!! I dont care if its store brand, Hiland, bordens, theres only a .05 cents difference, ITS MILK! get one and get outta the way! I can understand stareing at breads, cheeses,cereal,there are lots of flavors they deserve some time,But MILK? Ita milk already, get it and get away!!! Oh yea, back to the 1st of the month thingy. we budget,clip cupons, make lists and get whats only on the list. I make several trips with short lists so i can get in the 10 items or less lane, and it happens every month around the 1st, a woman with a buggy full of stuff i wish i could get, pulling a buggy full of crap 6 kids are throwing in and they jump in the 10 items or less lane and they check em out, they dont enforce it! Oh yea the lady pushing and pulling buggies with 6 kids, nobody spoke any english,whats wrong with this picture?
