Rules of the Universe-the Sequel

1. Not one shred of evidence supports the notion that life is serious.
2. For every action, there is an equal and opposite government program.
3. If you look like your passport picture, you probably need the trip.
4. Middle age is when broadness of the mind and narrowness of the waist change places.
5. Opportunities always look bigger after they have passed.
6. Someone who thinks logically provides a nice contrast to the real world.
7. There is a very fine line between 'hobby' and 'mental illness' (except for knitters-I added this part)
8. You will never find anybody who can give you a clear and compelling reason why we observe daylight savings time.
9. The one thing that unites all human beings, regardless of age, gender, religion, economic status or ethnic background, is that, deep down inside, we ALL believe that we are above average drivers.
10. By the time you can make ends meet, they move the ends.

I tried to download/upload-whatever it is we do to them-some recent photos and they wouldn't co-operate. It's a mystery to me--I'll try again later.

10 days from today I will celebrate--celebrate might be too strong of a word--let's say I'll observe my 60th. birthday. I really can't figure out how I got this old. I'm only in my mid-thrities at least until I look in the mirror and then I see my mother which isn't a bad thing but it is rather startling. I gotta wonder what the future holds and if I'll outlive the "disease". I've always believed in karma and I tell you sometimes I wonder what I was like in previous lives.

I will finish the Advent Scarf hopefully tomorrow. I'm really tired of this project. Maybe I can get some photos and get them loaded to show you. I've always closely identified with Oscar the Grouch and some days I just want to throw up my hands and say wtf.

and on that cheerful note I'll close.......toodles Anita
