phases of life

the above illustration is somewhat humorous.....but we are finding out....NOT THAT humorous!!!

as we are dealing with MAJOR health issues with our parents in this phase of life....it is very difficult, and at times heart breaking......

unfortunately, i cannot help but think what is going to happen to US!......i kind of wish i was still in picture 4,5, or 6 above!!!......we are getting a little too close to 7, 8 and 9!....i can deal with 7......but not 8 and 9!......

i mentioned to my husband on the way home from Pa, after a long week of caring for and attending to major issues surrounding the failing health of parents....that we better really start being NICE to our children.....because soon they will be taking care of us!.......you can laugh, it is a joke.......i HOPE

well, my camera batteries died....so am waiting on the charger to give them new life so i can post my wonderful "findings" in Pa.....especially the SURPRISE one and the SHOCK one......and NO, it was NOT a nest of baby mice!!! :)
