Hello! :-) ... Yes, I know I just posted a blog late last night. But I've decided to go back to my usual daily posts....Stop shaking your head!! LOL...I have to admit that I miss the outlet of talking about my every move! ^_^ Okay, not really. I just love the creative mind-set that writing puts me in. I probably should re-read, and then re-write my book!...The book I wrote about my life over fifteen years ago!!...That would be the opportunity for me to get this 'writing bug 'out of my system, for sure! :-) ... I'll think on it! :-]
In the meantime, I thought I'd share some conversation with you over a cup of tea! :-) Do you have your tea?!...or coffee?...or whatever?! ^_^ Well, here goes!...I'm getting so old!!! O_O Yeah, I know I've said that before. But this time...YIKES!...Hubby and I were talking over the weekend and something he said reminded me that I'm on the 'sunny side' of sixty!! O_O You know, sorta like being on the sunny side of a hill...The hill that I'm over, by a mile!!! LOL
The age, in itself, doesn't bother me...because I'm still 'ME' in my head...whatever age I am! ^_^ But it occured to me that I'm in the age range where doctors start asking you the 'old people' questions! And they want you to take the tests that 'old people' take! O_O The tests that tell them whether you're wearing out or not! LOL
Well, I've got news for the doctors......Uhhhh....I 'AM' wearing out!! LOL I don't need a test to tell me that either!! ^_^ I have aches and pains that are stressing my aches and pains! And I have things leaking and popping, graying and wrinkling, drooping and making noises, and.....GETTING OLD!! :-))
Time is not being kind to my poor body!...But the whole while my brain is doing great!! I'm getting wiser and calmer, less emotionally taxed, more thoughtful, and entirely more spiritually aware! :-] So, if I have to choose one...body or mind...I'm happy with the one I have. :-) ... "Go ahead time! Do you!! :-) And I'll do me!!"...
How's your tea?! :-) ... I won't keep you much longer. I promise! :-) I don't have that kind of time anyway!!...
I'm not gonna talk about my 'old lady' body anymore though! I'm gonna talk about how creative people on Etsy are!! :-] It's been such a pleasure for me to share their creations and craftiness! :-) It's made the time go by really fast while I was here talking my head off! ^_^
Today I'm busy doing some creating myself!...more crochet lapel flowers and brooches, of course! :-) I'm also 'fooling around' with the wording in some of my wuglyees shop listings...to try to bring more traffic to the shop...It's been almost ZERO traffic lately...I saw that a lot of Etsians were complaining about it in the Etsy forums. So I know I'm not alone.
I also hear that this is the time of year...from February to mid-April...when things slow waaaay down as far as people buying on Etsy. That maybe true. But it shouldn't stop people from 'looking', should it?!...It sure doesn't stop me from looking!! ^_^
That's how I found all of this 'time' today! ^_^ ... I just love clocks and watches!...just saying! :-)) ... Okay, back to your tea! :-) Sip up, and have a good rest of the day, Everybody!! We'll talk again soon I'm sure! ♥
Time is always waiting right here, isn't it?! :-]
I Like To Talk
I like to talk;
I like to gab;
I like a girlfriend
free confab!
I like to chat;
I like to speak;
I find that words
are what I seek.
I like the chatter
of a crowd;
Not in a whisper,
but out loud.
But, please no talking
while you chew.
{Speaking does
have manners too!}
I like the noise
that utterance does.
The constant
conversation buzz.
Maybe I need a
word-free diet;
No! I could not
withstand the quiet!
So, I will talk;
Oh yes! I'll dabble
in a constant
lingo babble.
And I'll talk,
and chew the fat,
while the time goes...
just like that!

Your body is wearing out....so is mine! I'm on the cloudy side of sixty. Bout to turn 61. I don't like it one bit either!! But as you said....my mind is also the same as always...sharp as a tack! Thankfully the body aging is only temporary!
ReplyDelete"Time" will heal it!!
Speaking of....I love that watch!! How cute is that! Your other finds are great as well.
I'll have to look at your shop and see what kind of changes you made. It IS very slow on Etsy these days. Hope it picks up for you soon!
Have a great memorial tonight! Hope you have a lot of new ones there!
Ha! Ha!....It's ABSOLUTELY wearing out!! ^_^ And I won't be far behind you on that hill either!! LOL But isn't it wonderful having 'in tack' brains?! ^_^ Although mine doesn't remember things like it used to!...Maybe it's just kicking out stuff that I don't need to remember anymore!! ^_^ ... As you said though, SOON we'll be 'spry chickens'!! I CAN'T WAIT!!!! :-) What would we do without Jehovah's promise, huh?!! (Rev. 21:3, 4) No more pain sounds good to me!!! ♥ Enjoy the Memorial my friend. Get there early! I'm sure it'll be a full crowd.
DeleteThank you for including a picture of my watch pendant. I like your blog! Keep up the good work!
ReplyDeleteThe pleasure was all mine!! :-] And thank you for the nice complement. ♥
