CAN YOU COUNT TO ENDLESS

When I went in for my yearly 'wellness' checkup in March it really brought home to me 4 facts of life about growing older.

1       There is no such thing as just one doctor's appointment anymore.  I've  had several since then with no end in sight.

2       Everything takes longer than it use to.   Sometimes it's days or          even weeks between each different test, each different specialist and each different answer.

3       Getting frustrated is normal but you learn to live with it .     

4       How you live with it is up to you.  Getting angry gets you nowhere you want to be so you work through each step and move on.


and...AT THE END OF THE DAY...you wait...you expect the unexpected...you accept whatever comes next...and you get on with your new normal...whatever it is.
