WHY IS A MOUSE WHEN IT SPINS?
Please ensure mind is in motion before engaging mouth.
I’m tryin’ to think, but nuthin’s happenin’!
Did I actually have my shit together in my youth, and only now is it coming unravelled quicker than a knitted sock the cat found?
Or was I always this spun, and I have just finally achieved clarity?
Old age is like waking from an epic drunk, on someone else’s couch. It takes at least an hour for reality to come into sharp focus.
Do not operate heavy any equipment while under the influence. Squirrel-brain is normal. Afternoon naps are a proven effective treatment.

I’d love to nap, but I have a hard enough time sleeping at night.

That’s why I take regular, afternoon naps, I don’t sleep well at night. If the wife doesn’t snore, her CPAP machine does. 😯
When my Mother was my age, she’d give bed a half-hour try. If she didn’t fall asleep, she’s go to the living room, zip herself into a sleeping bag, sit in a big wing-back chair, stick a pillow behind her head, and read. If she dozed off – good! If she didn’t, at least she was warm and comfy.
I have a recliner chair, and a llama-wool blanket that’s as light as a Kleenex, but toasty warm. 😀

We need humor at all times of life, but we only notice the need as we grow older. 😀 😆
