Today, Sunday, March 15, 2026, is my 64th Birthday. What a ride this life has been.
For those of you who may be unaware, folks my age use different codes for text messages. Below are the ones we use.
Not all of them apply to me (yet) but some of them actually do!
Was going pretty good for the first 57 years, then things . . . changed.
2019 - Myocardial Infarction Heart attack
-- Open heart surgery, four bypasses.
17 months later, in October 2020 -- SECOND Myocardial Infarction heart attack; two of the four bypasses clogged with Blood Clots.
That second one was WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY worse than the first.
Never really got over that one; physical deterioration set in. Muscle loss; especially in my thighs. I used to have strong legs. Strong like a bull. No more.
Weight gain.
Arthritis in the hips, the knees.
Easily winded by even walking short distances.
Vision is going straight to hell.
Hearing is worsening, noticeably.
Completely intolerant of fools, the ignorant, the stupid, and bullshit artists.
Thankfully, the older I get, the faster I can make those determinations!
By the time I'm dead, I'll be really smart!
