Look, getting old is not for sissies. There is no dress rehearsals to help you adjust, it comes and you deal. Luckily my birthday is in January, so I have all year to work through it. I realized today that when you are 20 and one of your friends passes away it is a tragedy, but when you start into the 60's all of the sudden the tragedy is the acceptable norm. Well, you can see that I am fragile today,, all it will take is a good nights sleep and a gin and tonic to help me get over this. Tomorrow I will be bright eyed and bushy tailed not able to contain myself again because we are shopping for a kitchen refrigerator, a cook stove and a washing machine for our new rental house. I am saying that it will be exciting, the truth is we have been living with items that were in the furnished house we rented and it will be nice to know they are mine not borrowed, nor will I have to explain a scratch or dent or negotiate a new one if it breaks. I will just go out and get another one no messing around saying it was old to begin with or that it needed maintenance.
So... that is the update for today,, I am working through my new number due to my birthyear and day, I am going to get a cool refrigerator and cookstove and a washer that is going to be all mine and I think I will be too tired to worry about a number tomorrow. Wish us a good hunt!
