Hey if you can't comment, smile as you go by...

No credit, No money, Life still sunny, Ain’t life funny…? Can’t find a job, Sometimes in my bed I sob, Even with a little money I might have on the side, I don’t get to go out and take a relaxing ride… My ocean not far away, Rarely though do I go out in the day, Always worrying about lack of funds, Still I am happy but having no fun… Still in all I got a good car, 12 years old but a Honda star, So I am not all that bad off, So for today to you my hat I doff. © 5/24/16 –em-

We all wish for more money to do more things, it just doesn't seem to come to me now. But i'm hanging in there and your Poem made me not to feel so alone in my living.

I am very sad this morning. A dear friend and business associate has been diagnosed with ALS. Since I last saw him in Feb. he has regressed from a healthy, vibrant person to having to use a walker.
Makes one realize we could all be worse off.

You are good at hat-doffing. Is there a job for that? Walmart greeter?

'Well there is always somebody worse off than you' , my mama always said and we were poor as dirt, but somehow that doesn't make you feel any better most times.
