Age Old Question....

I must be getting old. My children remind me of that quite often but I prefer to blame all my mental lapses or whacked out worries to menopause. (I guess menopause does arrive as you are getting older, right?) Yesterday, I felt the need to beat it home from my niece's baby shower because of the looming blizzard. Rebecca just shook her head. I left early and could have stayed longer.

And I am finding myself telling people the same story over again and again. People smile nicely then say, "yeah, you already told me that." How kind of them......I wonder just how many times I do that and nobody says anything.

Just yesterday, I was doing some typing.........OK, I fess up! I was playing Word Challenge and I was trying to type fast, not one of my better skills. I caught myself typing words completely backwards or with letters all turned around. The ticking of the stupid clock flustered me which caused the mental lapse with the brain and the fingers. Well, at least that is what I am going to tell people now.

Yes, the years have taken their toll in more than one way but don't get me started. I hope that as "my outer man is decaying, my inner man in being renewed day by day." I pray that I have grown in wisdom and am hopefully trusting God more as the years fly by. It is difficult to measure your own spiritual growth so I guess I will not attempt it. I am just thankful that God knows and understands me and is patient enough to continue to use me as He sees fit.

Well, better get ready for church. Trudging through the snow doesn't sound like fun but I want to be there. Oh, that reminds me..........Did I tell you about the baby shower that I went to on Saturday????????
