Old Dog
I shirley have lost a step or 2. In my case at least one finger.
I've been listening to the recordings of songs I used to do compared to songs I do and play now. I hear buzzes,notes of chords not quite held out like I used to be able to, and sounds that used to not be there. What's worse is EVERYBODY looks like kids to me!
People want to hold the door open for me at restaurants and everybody says "Yes Sir" when I ask a question!
My son, who runs a retirement home, keeps asking me to move up there with him and the kids. I leave for the Holidays in the morning to go to my youngest son's house and I
Am going to wear my robe and slippers around HIS house and watch football and wait to be served turkey and dressing and pie and cobbler and ice cream! I
Am going to fall asleep on the recliner and
snore as loud as I CAN! Cuz I know even though Grandpa does all this stuff that irritates MY kids so! I know THEIR kids can't wait to see me and I, as always, will smile, cherish the moment when they come up to me, give me a big hug and say
"we love you grandaddy"
