    Really? I'm glad to hear that.
    You know, I don't point fingers, I don't try to find fault, I'm not the kind to 'pick' at people. But, to be honest, I blame the multiple husbands. Lack of training. I think that's what it comes down to.

    Have you tried this 'Pennsylvania Dutch Egg Nog'? I've been sipping on this since about 5. Very sweet. Not much of a buzz. I've almost killed the bottle.

    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

    What's this shit about "golden years"? This past summer
    has been a blast driving my Cobra and meeting so many
    good people and seeing some really nice cars at car shows,
    so I guess I can't complain. Both surgeries, despite all the

    last one (that one really kicked my ass hard!). It's all good

    Even those slow you down using a walker, but not as bad as getting tangled in those miserable throw rugs.

    A coupla' months ago I played tennis with my son and fucked up my right knee somehow. I'm still in pain over that. Then a few weeks ago I was working on a roof with my son and when I got down off the ladder I stepped on a root and fell flat on my back fucking up my left elbow. It was red, swollen, and infected. I had to sit here at the Computer with my left elbow soaking in a pail of hot water. It's still swollen.
    Whoever said "It just gets better as you get older" ... is a fucking liar!

    I've noticed I'm not as "durable" as I was 30 years ago. What sucks is sometimes I forget that!

    Old age isn't for sissies. I'm in my mid 70's and doing great oh I have the aches and pains, and need a walker because my balance sucks. If I kneel down I can't get up without a lot of work or help. So I can empathize with you two.
    I always tell people of our age group
    The brain says you can do anything you did when you were 30 and the body says oh yea well I'll show you.

    All the reasons you guys name is why I exercise in the pool,easy on the joints,can move around.
    We have an arthritis class in the therapy pool,mostly older ladies 70's to 90's
    Wheel up in their walkers,the floor is raised for them to get in,then taken down to the depth they want for their class.
    AM I, I AM's,AM I.
    What day is Michaelmas on?

    Is egg nog the same as advocaat?

    Yeah. I try and keep that foremost in my mind. It takes a long time to mend. I'm more cautious now.

    I had to look that up.
    "Traditional Dutch Advocaat—Eggnog With a Twist"
    https://www.thespruceeats.com/tradit...recipe-1128594

    "This drink is often called ''advocaat of the devil'' because once you start nipping at this sweet nectar, you cannot resist the temptation to have more. Take a Dutch adventure right in your own home and enjoy advocaat as a thick, seasonal tipple during the winter holidays, pour it over vanilla ice cream or use as a filling in desserts, pastries, and cakes."
