John Edwards
- Thanks for stopping by! Would you like a cup of tea or coffee? And please, sit for a spell. If you enjoy my posts, please feel free to follow me or subscribe to my blog. This is a word verification free, family friendly blog, so everything I share here is for all ages. I am a happily married man in my late sixties who lives on the Wirral peninsula, near Liverpool, in the UK.I'm a blogger - and nowadays that seems to be my main occupation. Rambles from My Chair is my main blog. I’m a retired local government executive - now studying how to survive a neurological disorder that gives me various problems but, hopefully, a whole new outlook on life and an increased sense of humour and perspective. There is a saying in Sweden "man måste vara frisk för att orka vara sjuk" ~ "you have to be well to cope with being ill"....I enjoy most forms of communication and postcards are a special favourite. I used to blog as Scriptor Senex which is Latin for Old Writer but now Google only lets me post as John Edwards.“He’s not so old. He’s just the age that he is, that’s all.” (Gerald Hammond)

I laughed so hard at this that I cried. Thankyou. I now finally know what I do with my days and why I seem to get nothing done...
ReplyDeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteDon't know what to make of the video - it's awfully close to home!! Well done, isn't it? Kudos to all involved there.
I really wanted to comment on your blog and thank you for it. While looking for, of all things, the word 'tarasgeir,' I was led by the magic of IT to your brilliant site.
The photos of the Isle of Lewis and the peats are stunning, but what really drew me in is your photo of the sign bearing the word Iolaire, both a story and an idea that has long held my attention for reason of its importance to the long island.
I look forward to exploring more of your blog, and in the interim, thank you for it.
Take care,
I'm smiling, but it isn't funny! This is so true as we age.
ReplyDeleteI'm a little better than this dear lady only because I'm obsessive/compulsive and everything must be in it's place. On those rare occasions when I do mis-place something I'm crazy till I find it.
Hilarious, only if it's happening to someone else, or is it? I have had times like that. I keep hoping that it won't become an every-day occurrence.
ReplyDeleteOh heavens above. That is so true. I must remember to do something about this.
ReplyDeleteSince I wrote the last few sentences (when I got up at 0600 this morning)I've showered, had breakfast, made my lunch sandwiches and come to the Croquet Club where I've laid and set 8 hoops on each of 6 lawns and am now refereeing 6 matches.
ARADD has occurred at every stage of the morning.
Argh....
Okay...so what is my excuse?? I can't say it's age activated ;)
ReplyDeleteLoved the video, though...LOL!!!
That is the 'but then' story of my days - I went to do this but then decided to do that but then ....
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting it - I had such a good laugh!
