How Far Over the Hill ....

I found my way back to this blog serendipitously. I was looking to follow a harp blog that belongs to a friend. I knew I had created the blog, but, I thought it would be too hard to reconnect. I started it before I turned 49 and I am now on my way to 54. To delete or not to delete...that is the question. No one follows mu blogging, so is it really worth it ?

My Girl in Retirement

I am starting to contemplate retirement. I'm not sure what that means yet. I do know the first thing I plan to do is eat all of the marshmallows out of a box of Lucky Charms (I actually hate them) and then go riding on my Townie bike telling everyone my name is Vada Saltunfuss and singing My Girl at the top of my lungs!

Glinda the Good Witch turns 49

Image
So I'm rounding the corner to 49 and wondering what next? It's cliche' to say I don't "feel 49" and yet it is the truth. I still have the random thoughts I had in the 70's.....I still want to run away and be happy go lucky me! I want Glinda the Good Witch to fly down in her mysterious ball and tell me there's no place like home while I float awaywith the Wizard of Oz! The best I can do is put pen to paper or type to blog and imagine the world as I don't know it. I wonder what the Scarecrow, Dorothy and the Tin man thought when they were my age. Do we all have common experiences no matter what we do, who we are, where we came from and where we are going???

Time Draws Near

The countdown seemed to going quickly in late May, early June. Now that it is closer than it has ever been, time has slowed to a snail's pace. I am ready to retire, but tonight I was awake wondering what that will really mean. Especially since I spent the weekend with my aged and ailing parents. 30 years from now that will be me. Will I be healthy? Not unless I take a drastic step now. Why have I not taken that step? I simply don't have the energy. Everytime I get started a new block comes between me and my health. Will I be able to do something about it in a month? I hope so, but the latest thing that got in the way was helping care for my parents. It took every ounce of energy I had and it was over 100 degrees and that made me hang up hopes for any outdoor exercise since I wasn't in the right place for indoor exercise. Sigh. Aging isn't fun and now I am worried that retirement won't be either.
