Cripes... there's a very old joke that reads, "You know you're getting older when your back goes out more than you do."
Oh yeah... I think my back is on a three day bender.
It does indeed, suck big time. However, (With many thanks to Prince Valium!) I don't really care!
No, I do care and it bummed me out. I missed a friend's bridal shower yesterday and I felt really bad about it. But I had to be honest with myself and driving was simply out of the question.
Fall is marching along. It rained almost all night and as a result, there are hardly any leaves left on the trees. It has come to that, almost unnerving feeling as you look out at the yards and up & down the street.
Why is it so quiet? Where are the signs of life? The color has given way to bleakness and everything seems quite gray. A person wonders if even sunlight could change the mood of the season?
It's the time of year when a person's mind seems full of introspection... of contemplation... Where has this year gone? When did I last tell someone I love, that I do indeed love them? How has so much time slipped past me already?
The answers are fleeting... often there are no answers... just gentle wisps of thoughts that make you think... it wasn't such a bleak year... it was just fast.
In a way; it's comforting, in other ways, it's sad... time indeed goes by in a blink...
Tell someone you love, that you love them and you'd be lost without them....
