The GOLDEN Years?

Message 879 of 11010

Some of you reading this aren't there yet, but wait!

Aah, the Golden Years!

Really; the only thing golden is the color of your urine from taking all those damned pills!!!

LAUGH A LITTLE EVERY DAY....

SPECIAL POEM FOR OLDER FOLKS
A row of bottles on my shelf
Caused me to analyze myself.
One yellow pill I have to pop
Goes to my heart so it won't stop.
A little white one that I take
Goes to my hands so they won't shake.
The blue ones that I use a lot
Tell me I'm happy when I'm not.
The purple pill goes to my brain
And tells me that I have no pain.
The capsules tell me not to wheeze
Or cough or choke or even sneeze..
The red ones, smallest of them all
Go to my blood so I won't fall.
The orange ones, very big and bright
Prevent my leg cramps in the night.
Such an array of brilliant pills
Helping to cure all kinds of ills.
But what I'd really like to know...........
Is what tells each one where to go!

There's always a lot to be thankful for if
you take time to look for it. For example
I am sitting here right now thinking how nice it is
that wrinkles don't hurt.

now where did that purple pill go again? Dang, swallowed the wrong one. This should be fun, I wanted an adventure today.
I'm hot flashing all over the place, I don't need to heat up my coffee, I just stick my finger in it!

I too can relate WW. It's reality
nay Essence of the reality at this
old age. But still groping in the
dark where to go? and when to go?
Out of this Pills eating diet filled
body.

That's the attitude that lifts our spirit to gratitude.

Thanks for the laugh. WW

And that's only the beginning! LOL Thanks, WW.

When everything else has failed the only thing left is gratitude, and we had better hang on to that one like misers. ;-)

ROFL, WW. I'm here to say...All those colors are in my medicine pouch. There's a ritual I must go through to take each one daily. A couple before breakfast, Wait abt, thirty minutes and eat breakfast. After breakfast the next step in to take the liquid w/ juice, You can't lay down, you must sit. those sitting moments, either the powder room will beckon for my attention or I must prepare for the rest of the medications. By that time it is almost eleven o'clock. Preprations for for lunch. Even though, I must watch my diet, it seems it is steadly going up. why, Everyone of those med you will gain weight, become dizzy, drowsy, and the list goes on.
The GOLDEN Years? We are tough to take all of which might send one to the Golden Gates or if we don't we will get there anyway.

Thanks for the LOL.
