Rites of Passage. Sigh

General Discussion
#1

The first rite that I noticed was when my Rector (Pastor) was younger than I.

The second Rite that I noticed was when my physician said that I was in pretty good shape… for a man of my age.

Yesterday, I noticed another. My pharmacist did not provide me with a child-proof pill bottle, but gave me the easy open variety, instead.

I wonder what is next?

Sigh

Actually, they are are “seasoned citizen” proof. That’s why they gave it to me, I guess.

You know this thread is kind of timely for me.

Last week I was having a good day, the sun was shining, first time in weeks, and I was able to work out on the railroad.

Just before lunch I knocked off, loaded the dogs in the truck and went down to the post office to pick up the mail. While there
I visited with a couple of neighbors, then went by the store and got a couple of items and headed home.

Once home I grabbed a cup of coffee and set down to glance at the mail. One piece caught my eye, it was from MediCare, didn’t think too much of it as I have a stepdad in a care home and I deal with MediCare pretty regular. I opened it up to see what they wanted with him now.

You may or may not know how I felt when brand new MediCare card fell out of that envelope with MY name on it. Sure put a damper on the rest of a fine day.

Kind of brings it home, so to speak.
Later, maybe.

how about when kids you use to babysit growing up have grandchildren.
That one really hit me hard.

I would say how about when you have grandkids but I’m still waiting to get married and have kids.
