Good luck on final doses and tests for this round. Fingers crossed my friend. <br />And your post is funny as hell, the poem is way too applicable. We'll keep getting older together.

Since I started school at five, most of my classmates were older, so in the summer before my birthday, I always thought of myself as already being the age I was about to turn. Weird, huh? I still have to stop and think about my age, but I do the same for our kids, too. When someone asks me how old one of them is, I'm like a deer in the headlights. I actually have to subtract their birth year from the current year... and then say, "Holy crap! How'd (s)he get so OLD???" (Our oldest is 48... OY!)<br /><br />I hope we always remain childlike in our hearts.<br /><br />Thanks. :)Susan Flett Swiderskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09425315552148200073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6034142332858737641.post-76524253755312404522019-11-30T16:06:14.557-05:002019-11-30T16:06:14.557-05:00I'm glad Smarticus is doing well, but it would...I'm glad Smarticus is doing well, but it would come in kind of handy if he did glow in the dark.

Sending warm hugs and loving thoughts your way.<br /><br />As for age - I stopped counting after I turned 50.
