I’m moving so slow I’m going backwards If I moved any slower Rigor mortis would set in Pigeons would alight on my head and poop in my Post Toasties Cob webs would form and the dust would gather I’d collect clutter and be covered with coats Out of sight and out of mind I’d soon be lost and then forgotten Wouldn’t you know All because I’m movin’ too slow.

Pick up the pace . . . Hurry the walk . . . Trot down the hall . . . Do yo thang, but do it on the run . . . ~*~ When they give you ruled paper write sideways. ~*~ |

Love your post,understanding your problem. Good we have a sense of humor or we would all be bogged down in the dumps. Imagine what one can accumulate in 83 years! Start now or you will be inundated with stuff. Jo |

Try walking barefoot through a field of thistle... It should get you hopping |

Thanks for all the advice! Think I'll pass on the thistles. Maybe I'll try tieing candy to a stick and holding it out in front of me then I'll make an ass out of myself and it should work just fine! LOL! |

when we're young and foolish we're in a rush.. as we get older we're wise enough to take our time.. patience is something I've really learned to appreciate over the years.. nice thoughts here Lori  |
