IT'S ABOUT TIME I POSTED!
Yep, I can't believe how long it has been since I have been on our blog site. Ain't been no where else except pumping iron at our local YMCA and watching all the hot chicks sweat & jiggle. I was corrected the other day when I was told that TX Gals don't sweat.....They just Glisten!!!! Oh well, I'd say that they are at least "moist" if you know what I mean.
What's Happening? Well, a high light was meeting some of my fellow bloggers at the Texas State Fair. The Bride and he group from our local YMCA do some line dancing and they were asked to perform in the Cotton Bowl where the Senior Community was introducing TEXERCISE Dallas which is a campaign to get older citizens more active for health reasons. Well, they about killed half of us old "farts" in the 90 degree heat out there, but they had good intentions anyhow.
Just-Margie, one of my baby girls, came out with Heather (her friend and fellow blogger), Twiddle & his wife (also bloggers) and "all the way from Kansas, Lucky Stars", who is my heart throb! She gave me a hug and I just went "blank" after that!! I don't think that I had died and gone to Heaven, but it was very close. I could not believe how big Twiddle was, but Lucky Stars was everything and more than I expected. OK, enough of this, I will survive, but it was a special pleasure meeting all of these Xanga friends.
My Birthday fell on the day our YMCA had their Grand Opening of the new 3.8 Million dollar expansion and I, of course, assumed they staged this day in honor of my Birthday which was October 17th. I arrived early with a dozen pens and photographs to hand out to my admirers, but no one asked for a single one.
After that, I went to the Senior Center for a Flu Shot! That was fun, but not as much fun as the Chinese Restaurant I went to following the shot. They give you a free meal on your Birthday, but the Bride invited my youngest daughter and her children to join us. Thus, my "free meal" barely covered the tip.
To top it off, I bit down on a bone and broke a tooth. I ingested the broken part and feared it would cause damage at the exit, but I was lucky there. However, I was not so lucky when the repair of said tooth came to $958.00 without insurance. Additionally, it took an hour plus of grinding to insure I had enough pain to appreciate the price. Oh well, you can't take it with you because it will burn up.
After that, the lights in our kitchen failed and things just sort of went downhill from there. Enough said! Just-Ben, next year I request that you celebrate for the two of us (being identical twins) as I don't think I can handle another. Perhaps, we are just not birthday kind of people!
Anyhow, Deer Season is upon us and it is my duty as a US Citizen, Veteran, Senior Citizen, and "Provider of Food" to go into the wilds and "harvest" game for our nourishment and health during the coming year. Yep, I am just days away from escaping to the "Woods" to participate in the greatest sport known to man......."Drinking Hard & Sleeping In, while dreaming about the big deer we is gonna shoot!". Hopefully, I will have a better year than last when I gave away the three I shot expecting to put two more on the table. Rain and mud ended my hopes for the rest of that season. I never got a scope on another animal.
It's time to bid you farewell, so I say Peace Y'all & Sleep Well!
JustBob, ......and nothing more!
