I'm Too Old For This

~ x o ~

Maybe it's just that I'm getting too old.

I don't know.

I got this cold. It seems semi easy.

As easy as a cold can be.

Nope, it fooled me.

I'm going into week two.

Terrible. Lousy. Yucky.

I need a break from this sneaky thing.

Add in that my back went out the day after

and well, I'm a mess over here in the woods.

I can't bend over to feed the Purr and Fur Gang.

I can but that includes a scream or two.

The cold / cough is just nasty.

Just when you think it's going away,

It add something new to the main attraction.

I'm just too old for this.

Two weeks of coughing.

I need a vacation !!!

Nothing but the truth

I wanted to write something witty.

Not happening.

I'll just tell the truth.

Which is what I usually do

and that is what has gotten me

in trouble most of my life.

That and my face.

I'm always told that my face

says something different and

shows emotions to others

that I don't really mean.

What am I to do ?

Be stone.

Anyway, on this rainy morning

I thought I'd say that

my life has been a turn and twist.

I'd just like things to go smooth.

Not happening.

I've survived a lot physically and emotionally.

I'm old.

I'm worn out.

I just want to take a long nap

like my cats do.

I will continue on.

I always do.

I will figure out what's best for me.

I usually do that too.

I just hope my face doesn't give me away.

Darn it all ...

if a gal can't hide behind her own

what can she do.

Drink perhaps ...

And these are my thoughts on another rainy morning.
