Age is reletive

Dennis will be celebrating his 62nd birthday on Sunday. He's 62-, going on 40. How does he do that? I have pondered this for some time. I believe mindset plays a role, but there are other factors. Health would play into how you appeared to others, as well. I've known people who were 'old' at 25, or 'young' well into their 60's. I have decided the 'number' will NEVER be a reason NOT to do something. If I WANT to do it--age doesn't matter. However, if I DON'T want to do it, 'I can't do THAT--I'm 50. Have some compassion!' What do ya'll think? It works for me!

I went shoe shopping this week. Oh my! The shoes are ok, but not all THAT comfortable. Maybe, it my feet! Let's see, ingrown toenails, bunions, corns---Yeah, it COULD be my feet. I always buy 2 pair of work shoes. I leave one pair at home, resting, and wear the other. They seem to last longer that way. They also stay comfortable longer. One pair is pretty good but I might have made a mistake with the other pair. My feet want to turn one direction and the shoes want to turn the opposite direction. I believe I've developed a permanant limp. Oh well, I guess I could always answer to 'limp along' or something like that. Brandon, watch your daughters ,as I seem to have my mothers feet problems.

Loving life and hoping that the same can be said by all of you!

Yeah being flat footed isn't much fun either. It's a pain in the bum finding a good comfy pair of shoes. It's snowing up here again. A good 6 to 12 inches now. Good grief I really thought spring was finally here guess not. Hope you and Bree are doing well.
