It's Kind of Sad

You know, I have been thinking and it is kind of sad growing old. Our big family have families of their own and jobs and are so very busy. It's been a long Holiday with nothing to do and no company or BBQ's. In a way, it's kind of good to see the work week come again, even if we don't go to work anymore. At least the stores are open so you can go get something if you need it. I saw a cartoon that said it all. First, there are two of you 1 + 1 + 2. Then you have a family and it is 1 + 1 +4 + 6. Then it is back to 1 + 1 = 2 and you rarely see the 4 that are subtracted from the equation. You just kind of fade into the shadows and the next generation takes over. Life goes so fast you can't believe it sometimes. Heard on the news that it has been a year since Steve, the alligator man was killed by a Stingray. And Diana has been gone 10 years. Where did those years go? I'm that much close to Heaven and there are times, I can hardly wait to get there. Are you ready?
