I have recently come to the realization that my life at fifty isn't exactly what I had pictured for myself. Who would have thought that at this age I would be hopelessly single and living with 5 dogs? I certainly never envisioned that I would resemble a cross between the Michellin Man's wife and a pathetically melting snow woman. Nope, not much of what I had pictured for myself is the way I planned it. So instead of weeping about what might have been or what shoulda-woulda-coulda, I figure that I will just start a blog to document the ironies of life after I got over the hill and started slipping down the other side.
Don't expect all of what is written here to be sage, wise, humorous, or even totally sane. I will try to keep it light, after all, if you can laugh at the lemons life throws at you, you have it at least halfway to lemonade. I figured out a long time ago that I had better learn to laugh because I was absolutely certain that someone somewhere was having a really good time watching all the mistakes I make. My personal vision is kind of like a Heavenly version of "Funniest Home Videos." So if life has delt you a baskt of lemons, a few cherries complete with plenty of pits, and a few peaches, well, come on along for the ride, 'cause it's all down hill from here! ;-)
