About a year ago, I was chatting with the son of a friend of mine.. he was about 20-ish years old. I had been a long day and I was tired. "Calgon, take me away," I joked.... I got a blank stare and I SWEAR I heard crickets. He had no idea what I was talking about. Sad. So I am now tired AND OLD!
Honey you are not old. I am staring down the throat at 62. That is old. If I had known I was going to live this long, I would have taken better care of myself. :)
I am so glad you stopped by. I hope you will find something here that makes you laugh or that you can relate to somehow. I love to read comments and encourage you to leave one. Also, if you are at all interested in sewing/crafts, visit my other blog, too. Sew....what now?
