Getting Old is For The Birds

 Well good morning friends, I hope you are well
 
I've been up with the lark, which is becoming the norm for me and I managed to visit your blogs too. Excuse any spelling or grammar errors I made -  typing is weird when your fingers have little sensation.

Referring to my last post, my friend Diane commented that getting old is for the birds and it gave me an idea so I grabbed my pen and paints and made a couple of cards...


I haven't had to resort to a walking stick just yet but glasses? I have 3 pairs and the onset of cataracts so I know what it's like for this little guy trying out his glasses.


A funny thing... I have to use eye drops in my left eye every day and DH said these particular ones cause hair to grow. Of course I thought he was joking but honestly the eyelashes on my right eye are normal but my left eye looks like I have a false eyelash on... It's ridiculous. Yes I've considered trying it on both eyes but I'm scared that I won't then have enough to last the month which is the shelf life and when my prescription is repeated so I guess I'm just going to have to get used to it.
 
This next one I'm entering at CAS Mix Up
 

This guy reminds me of my DH but don't tell him.

 Not that he goes to the library but he reads everything, labels and contents on packets, you name it... Getting around a supermarket takes forever with him. But I think it's the strands of hair and the specs that more remind me of him Lol!


I was actually chuckling to myself as I drew these, assembling them took twice as long.

I hope they made you smile too...

Enjoy your day... It's cool and dull here whereas the rest of the country is sweltering but hey I'm not complaining, I don't like the heat.

Till next time
