Who You Calling Old? By Kathy Armijo
Hair’s gone white Thankfully, no wart on the nose Hips got wider Steps could be lighter
Sight needs corrective lenses Arthritis crooks fingers Teeth are still mine Love to wine and dine [which accounts for wider hips]
TV volume has gotten louder Or are people speaking softer? Can’t remember where I put what I wrote Now that the memory is going kapute
Don’t have a rocker Could it be in Davey’s locker? Thankfully, my inner child Has NOT left the building
"Thankfully, my inner child, Has NOT left the building." Mine either Kathy. I found the key and threw it away. That's one child that I'll never allow the leave. Well done my friend. (HUGS) and love to you always and God bless you little one.
Kathy, at Thanksgiving my Aunt Flossie, age 97 said she needed a new flannel night gown,, I told her I would find her one,, she paused and look up and said "oh don't bother, I am afraid you might get an old granny one" lol ( got her one anyway )
thanks for the fun write,,
Always, Christine
I definitely identify with this even though all of you guys are just spring chickens. Wait until you get to be my age. My body may be getting older but I'm still a child at heart.
As we advance in age we do incur all of the above but love is still in our hearts and the inner child still has its devilish ways. Well done Kathy. God Bless you and AMRN
Who am I calling old? Me, for one...forty eight, but the body's convinced it's 112. Danged arthritis. LOL But like Timex, takes a licking and keeps on ticking. I hope. LOL Enjoyed this one, well done.
(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.
And every day that God blesses me with is one more the danged doctors said I wouldn't have. :) (Being born prematurely, they said me or my twin sister wouldn't live.) Thank you, God. :)
This one gave me a chuckle; but one I can definitely relate to. We may not be getting any younger, but we ARE definitely getting better! Very well penned; brava!
(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. :D
Cute Kathy, and Amen to all that you have said. There are some days I could feel just like that. Seems when one thing goes the words gets out for the rest to follow. Have to learn how to short circuit the message control center...

As long as we still got those, the rest don't really matter. And that is one fascinating picture of that ancient stone.
