I just realized that there are only two existing jokes about us retired folk, - - - - - - - - everything else is true!

You may have heard this one already. There was this young man who took his dear wife to some property he was wanting to buy, and upon her approval, he made the purchase. It was a beautiful valley with a grove of trees at the far end. his goal was to have at least 100 valuable walnut trees ready to harvest in 40 to 50 years. Their retirement bank account. His dear wife looked at him suspiciously asking, “Do you realize exactly how much work that will be to plant 100 walnut trees?” He simply replied, “I have a plan!” The young man scattered a bushel of walnuts on the ground in the area and the squirrels had a hay day! They were busy burying walnuts all over their private estates before they depleted his supply. His walnut grove grew and matured into choice walnut tree specimens, ready for harvest, pretty much like he had hoped for. You know, I'm retired now and I never even thought of arranging for the squirrels to do some of my labor intensive projects for me early on!

A strange lot we are! How many of us wake up in the morning, expecting absolutely nothing and then when we get it, aren’t disappointed?

Take a few steps and I can hardly breath. I just stand there and snort and winnie and wheeze, Can just barely take in enough air to sneeze! More Pills Should Surely Fix That!
My joints can’t seem to flex and bend, by using the signals that I send, Or has this become the latest trend? More Pills Should Surely Fix That!
Memories slip and stay in my belly, To join the toasted bread with jelly. Makes my body curves look straight and swelly. More Pills Should Surely Fix That!
My crisp walk has become a hobble, My overgrown body’s slowed to a wobble, My singing voice sounds more like a gobble. More Pills Should Surely Fix That!
My eyes share duties with my fingers Which are busy dropping other thingers. The mind still seems willing, but nothing lingers. More Pills Should Surely Fix That!
Must I continue in such disrepair, Slowly getting from here to there? While from point to point, ya all beware! More Pills Should Surely Fix That!
So, what’s the conclusion, To all this confusion? Is “Fix That” just an illusion? More Pills?

Everyone’s starting tomorrow morning with a new rope. What are you going to do with your loose end?
