Tomorrow I have an appointment to have the stitches removed my face and while still homely, hopefully I will no longer scare little kids once the Frankenstein's monster countenance is gone. I sure am getting tired of doctors yet I have a appointment next week with a wound specialist to see if they know how to get my elbow to heal. I've already been forewarned that it will probably require another surgery. Hopefully three will be the lucky number.
After the stitches have been removed I will head for the farm. Lots has been neglected for several years so I don't think I will run out of work anytime soon. While my friend is in great shape, he is working on his ninetieth year so many things he can no longer do, or what once took him a couple of hours now takes a couple of days.
While I'm still twenty years behind him I know that I can no longer work as hard or as long as I once did; plus I now work at a much slower pace. Oh the joys of aging.
This year I discovered another downside to this aging process. It is becoming increasingly difficult to keep my pants up. I've also discovered that wood chairs seem harder than they used to. Hope finally told me why this phenomenon has occurred. My butt is disappearing. This list of negatives aspects of aging just keeps on growing.
While my friend has cut his nephew off, he still wants to do something for his great nieces and nephew. Rather than wait until he dies he has decided to give them money now so that I would have to deal with it at his demise. He has ask me to coordinate their coming to see him and ask if we could have a fish fry while they are here.
During this year's Lenten season, David and his wife took Marvin to his church for a fish dinner. He remarked while eating that it wasn't bad, but it wasn't as good as the fish you dad fries. The fish was deep fried with a heavy beer batter that he said he used to like but now wonders "where's the fish"?
