Seniors deserve to have a little fun too ... Thx Marge R!
Yesterday my daughter e-mailed me again, asking why I didn't do something useful with my time."Like sitting around the pool and
drinking wine is not a good thing?" I asked. Talking about my "doing-something-useful” seems to be her favorite topic of
conversation.She was "only thinking of me, she said and suggested that I go down to the Senior Center and hang out with the guests.I
did this and when I got home last night, I decided to play a prank on her.I e-mailed her and told her that I had joined a Parachute
Club.She replied, "Are you nuts? You are 83 years old and now you're going to start jumping out of airplanes?"I told her that I
even got a Membership Card and e-mailed a copy to her.She immediately telephoned me and yelled, "Good grief, Mom, where are your
glasses?!This is a Membership to a Prostitute Club, not a Parachute Club.""Oh man, I'm in trouble again," I said, "I really don't
know what to do. I signed up for five jumps a week!!"The line went quiet and her friend picked up the phone and said that my
daughter had fainted.Life as a Senior Citizen is not getting any easier, but sometimes it can be fun.Live Well, Love Much, Laugh
Often
