ANOTHER YEAR ALMOST GONE 2004

My favourite exercise...its perfect for all of you guys & gals

I finally found a program that I can commit a lot of time to.

New exercise routine if you're over 50 or for any day you feel like you are over 50. You might want to take it easy at first, then do it faster as you become more proficient. 

It may be too strenuous for some.

And, always, always consult your doctor before starting any exercise program.

SCROLL DOWN

 

 

 

 

NOW SCROLL UP

That's enough for the first day. 

Now go have a glass of wine. We'll resume tomorrow

============================================

There are recent rumours that Julie Andrews did a concert for AARP.

Ms. Andrews sang a favourite from the Sound of Music, "Favourite Things".

There were a few changes to the words, to fit in with the AARP theme.

Here are the new words to this tune:

Maalox and nose drops and needles for knitting,

Walkers and handrails and new dental fittings,

Bundles of magazines tied up in string,

These are a few of my favourite things.

Cadillac's and cataracts and hearing aids and glasses,

Polident and Fixodent and false teeth in glasses,

Pacemakers, golf carts and porches with swings,

These are a few of my favourite things.

When the pipes leak,

When the bones creak,

When the knees go bad,

I simply remember my favourite things,

And then I don't feel so bad. Hot tea and crumpets, and corn pads for bunions,

No spicy hot food or food cooked with onions,

Bathrobes and heat pads and hot meals they bring,

These are a few of my favourite things.

Back pains, confused brains, and no fear of sinnin,

Thin bones and fractures and hair that is thinin,

And we won't mention our short shrunken frames,

When we remember our favourite things.

When the joints ache, when the hips break,

When the eyes grow dim,

Then I remember the great life I've had,

And then I don't feel so bad.

ANOTHER YEAR

2003                       2004                     

NOW I LOOK LIKE THIS

But, That's is not what it's all about another number.

as from my age one start to notice everyone around you

saying" it is what is in the heart and mind that count :

has has no difference, of course everyone want to believe that,

but facts will remind you of the reality of aging..

Yes young at heart everyone keep nagging is how you feel

so how abut I feel old since I was 8 years or so..

  
 I'm a 50 years now ( sorry for those older, soon will be my turn and everyone else's )
(which means I'm called old once reached 50 - meaning ...... I 'Passed' the 40 something,
There's a few things I want to tell you,

 you now!

OH OH  HERE I GO I FORGOT !!!!

Soon as I remember I'll tell you what they are.

I use to be the Life of the Party & making all Parties...
but now I am the life of ANY  depression clubs...

I'm Smiling even now more then I use too,
cause I can't hear a word anyone is telling me,

 not even my own voice anymore.

I'm also good at telling Stories repeatedly

also repeating myself constantly that is,

all my past history.....over and over and over again!

especially about things that upset me they are more in my memory

then the good times

"have you heard these lines inside your head in your  thoughts before"

I'm good on a short trip for less then an hour,
without complaining, don't ask me to stay longer without nagging.

I'm also aware that other people's
children aren't as bright as mine.
haven't you ever noticed that they're
making, us adults feel Younger these days?

and taking out roles as our parents use to do with us,

maybe the idea they don't want us to feel we got older... 
I'm walking less & but surely eating more .....
and complain I'm out of shape as I use to be.
I'm nagging that the new generation is different then mine,

yet my generation was different then my parents,

and it was my generation that started the rebellious youth,

not my parents generation.

I'm now spending more time alone,

pretending I like loneliness even to myself, practicing for the years to come.

I allow myself to sleep, even sitting telling myself my age permits..  

I awake Many Hours
before my body allows me just to move an each and that is only the beginning.

I'm in the *Initial* state of my Golden Years:
I've been wondering,
If you're only as old as you feel,
how could I still be alive since I 'passed' 50?

(no offense for those over 60& 70 or 80 90 something  (smile))
I'm supporting all kind of  movements ...
starting by eating all kind of  healthy food,

so I am hardly allowed to eat anything anymore,

as everything is now said to be unhealthy...

Good they found nothing in water yet, or in breathing oxygen...

I'm so scared for: long-term care,
eye care, private care, dental care, or staying on Medical-care

I'm having trouble remembering
simple words like.....my name or especially the word duh (do) anything ..

I'm wrinkled, saggy and lumpy,
and that's just the beginning of 50.
I'm realizing that aging is not easy neither for sissies too,

that's  why it come in old age. (maturity)

I'm not nagging or Grouchy,
I just don't like traffic,
waiting, listening,  politics  or politicians

 who say one thing like wanting peace,

yet plan to have more weapons & money to kill & make wars.....
I'm anti-everything now:
anti-fat, anti-smoke, anti-noise,
anti-inflammatory, and just generally
anti-Life.
I'm only 53 years OLD
and I'm told
I'm having the
time of my Life!

I DON'T THINK SO
