Seems we are all facing challenges. Been off my feed lately. So many health problems. I don't have to drive my car lately it knows all the routes to Doctors. Elderly pass me in their arm driven go carts as I limp to the infirmary to see Grandma. She is near 96 but bed ridden. Mind alive but wheel don't work. Hip surgery is for old people. I looked in the mirror. That could be me. Still don't look my age but my body feels it. Then I stopped feeling sorry for myself. Wife's younger brother my friend of friends. Found he has Cancer after a colonosphy. The liver spots proved false. But pretesting showed heart problems. Ted rides bikes runs daily. Swims everyday so much for exercise. I am cutting out all but gardening. Once on the ground I crawl around like a snake. I have this cushion think I do a pushup to get to my feet. Most often when done weeding I look and it is on the opposite side of yard. Neighbors are doing u-tubes of my struggles. I thought one time I was smart, inventive, I used a plastic chair to weed. It collapsed head first and neighbor kids pulled me out of rose thorns. Wife just says get back there in the yard you do nothing else and no one anymore is reading your poetry. I think they have it backwards. You should be near dying and grow younger each day. That way you have something to look forward too. This growing older is a real bummer./Dandy
