Spent It's there beneath, all those aches, a current spreading across, a restlessness surrendering. "Nobody's perfect," I hear throughout the non completion days that remain after and continue into each next to come. The compilation hoards me into a heap of aged thoughts, another year to lump with the others, another stack of "what ifs" and "what mays" piling higher, forming that mound that must be climbed, with anxiety's sweat forming droplets from my laboring mind. I fret more over the moisture that some would say "glows on me" and wonder if the menopausal moments will ever cease as an excuse used, when life exerts too much pressure on me. Just yesterday, I heard from one so close to me, that in another year, I will be able to claim the right of Senior Citizen and rank with the others who receive a discount on their living. There was a time once, when I wished that would happen, but now, as the time will soon allow, I wish that I could be suspended and held into ageless moments, spent with you. M |

Hi Ron, well I spent yesterday with my mother who is visiting all of us for a month. Her birthday was yesterday, mine soon enough to come and we went out to lunch. Funny how numbers can make or break a day. *s Thanks, I have to learn that they are only numbers after all, and we are only as old as we allow ourselves to feel.  M |
