Everyone receives the same e-mail jokes and stories. I'm sure most of you have read this list of "funnies". Being under 50 years of age, a person might glance through the list without much thought.
.
Being 50 and beyond...well, it's a little different. You begin to relate to them. A few years ago, the funny stories about growing older were funny. Now...they're not quite as funny but you have to laugh to keep from crying.
.
Yesterday, the S-I-L called and wanted me to be sure to see Kenny Chesney's video, "Don't Blink". I found it on You Tube and the link is at the end of the list.
.
The song is just a reminder of how quickly life is passing us by and we dare not blink or we're going to miss something.
.
Enjoy the fun list. Can you relate to any of them? Last, but not least, watch and listen to "Don't Blink".
