2018 will be history is a few more hours. It has been a good year and I am so thankful for Gods Blessings. I was able to put photos of this year with dates beside them to show you how fast this year went as well as show you what is important to us. If your photo is not in our video- I am sure it is in our hearts.
This is my 15th blog/video this year- thank you for taking time to share memories. As of the end of the year, Little Star is my most viewed with 500 views, a song about my youngest grandson and how fast he is growing up. Smoke Gets In Your Eyes is second most viewed with 380 views- a review of the annual smoke we must breath each summer due to fires. Third was "Why do kids grow up" with 355 views and is about my grandkids as well. I hope you have a wonderful new year.
"King of the Road" is a song written and originally recorded in November 1964 by country singer Roger Miller. The lyrics tell of the day-to-day life of a vagabond hobo who, despite being poor, revels in his freedom, describing himself humorously as the "king of the road" I added some photos of some homeless camps in Wenatchee- they choose this life style even though it is cold out. They are not homeless, just choose to live differently than some and do not want the rules of shelters or to pay taxes. Most are good people, just leave a bit of trash behind and just want to be left alone. Some probably use or tried drugs and drinking- a costly move for those.
"When I am 64" was recorded on December 6th, 1966, by the Beatles. I was 12 years old at the time. I am not sure if I liked the song, as 64 seemed so old at the time. Now 52 years later I will turn 64 today. Those 52 years have gone by too fast. I found a similar song on the internet called "when I am 94" -a parody by Loose Bruce Kerr, that I added some photos of my life to. I have no idea how long I will live- but here is my goal-"I aspire to inspire until I expire."
Life Is Like A roll of Toilet Paper- as you get near the end-
it goes twice as fast.
This is what an old man looks like- taken this week at work.
I am 64 years old and I have so many unanswered questions!!!! I still haven't found out who let the Dogs Out...where's the beef...how to get to Sesame Street... why Dora doesn't just use Google Maps...Why do all flavors of fruit loops taste exactly the same, or how many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop......why eggs are packaged in a flimsy paper carton, but batteries are secured in plastic that's tough as nails... why "abbreviated" is such a long word; or why is there a D in 'fridge' but not in refrigerator... why lemon juice is made with artificial flavor yet dish-washing liquid is made with real lemons... why they sterilize the needle for lethal injections... and, why do you have to "put your two cents in" but it's only a "penny for your thoughts" where's that extra penny going to... why do The Alphabet Song and Twinkle Twinkle Little Star have the same tune... why did you just try to sing those two previous songs... and just what is Victoria's secret? ...and do you really think I am this witty?? ... I actually got this from a friend, who stole it from her brother's girlfriend's, uncle's cousin's, baby momma's doctor who lived next door to an old class mate's mail man..
At 65 if you wake up and nothing hurts it means you died in the night.
Where can 65-year-old men find younger women who are interested in them? In the bookstore, under “Fiction.”
65 years old is when you wake up in the morning looking forward to that nap in the afternoon.
