Where have the years gone?
My baby brother is in his fifties. How did that happen? He can get older if he wants to, but do I have to keep staying a few steps ahead of him? Can’t I just run in place for a few years and let him pass me by? Or maybe that’s what’s happening anyway. I’m pretty sure he doesn’t wash away his gray or slather on age-defying moisturizers. Maybe some day he’ll look older than me. That would be okay.
Clutter progress: I shoveled gravel to refresh the boy’s yard. The yard that the dogs have access to is xeriscaped with gravel and just a few plants. I lose a little gravel every time I clean up their deposits, so it has to be topped up from time to time. It’s pretty hard on my back. I’ve had a couple of days of being a slug. Today is better, so I’ll probably work on the books tomorrow & start thinking about a companion project. There is more to life than just books, isn’t there?
