Not be retired and disabled at age 48. Have a real job and make an income. Be one of those people that won't even take an aspirin. Wear beautiful clothes again and have a nice hairdo. Not worry or irritate my husband so much.

Lesley -
Love your elephant pic. Actually, I did ride an elephant once in a parade. Thought I was going to be horribly bowlegged for the rest of my life. Sheltiemom |

Oh Cyclops I loved Loved Loved your poem!
I would wear a pair of red high heels and march in front of the bicycle built for ten with a bataan! I would run with my Grandchildren and swim every day. I would hike the Sierra mountains again. I would take my grandchildren camping and fishing. I would throw out all this medication and wake up with a clear head every day. I would wake up every morning and run 6 miles like I used to! Oh, if only I didn't have PN! My life would be sooooo incredibly different! Instead, I am where I am. Old before my time, fatter than I should be, sitting on the sidelines like a zombie because my meds make me that way. But we are here, with our sarcastic attitudes and our memories of life before PN. Like old people in a nursing home watching out the window, remembering what life used to be. Living inside our own minds, knowing we will never be those healthy, energetic, carefree people again. I don't know if I like this exercise. It made me happy for a minute, then made me mad. Mad that I'm stuck inside this retirement home looking outside the windows and watching life pass me by! O.K. bring on the elephants!

Cy's BRILLIANT poetic ineptitude adds such a wonderful dimension to all of our dreams, goals and aspirations......NONE of which are in the realms of impossible IMO!

With Cy's intellectual capability in the fine Arts of Screenplay Mastery, and I'm sure we ALL have some inborn sense of acting skills which could render us in some major production company! Who will be our casting director?! MrsD is on vacation, so we've got to float this boat on our own Mate~s ! Cy already gets dibbs on Sandra Bullock I will have none other than Johnny Depp play my character......(?)...course he'd need a sex change....or not? He's always open to venturing into the unknown as far as taking on lunatic rolls in his films..... ![]() .....Let the LEGENDS Live On!!...... ![]() ...and may our dreams never be jaded! AMEN! |

Loved reading this reply this a.m. I would jump out of an airplane that is good condition. Skydiving was a hoot, and I would do it again and again if I could.
