Uncle Jesse birthday?

Jesse, I heard you flipped a page in life. I hope you have a bodacious day. Happy Birthday. Jim

[Uncle Jesse]

Thanks Jim, I have been celebrating the 49th anniversary of my birth for the 22nd time. Started off the day with a trip to the Orthopedic MD for X-rays and a cortisone shot on a knee I injured 53 years ago. I left the house, visited the doctor and was back in a little over any hour, my wife said that was impossible. Now to take her out to dinner, it's a landmark birthday for her today also. Friday marked our 50th anniversary as husband and wife. The Lord has richly blessed me.

Thanks guys, the year is off to a good start, the needle wasn't too large nor the injection too painful on the Cortisone shot. Now to get away from the birthday / anniversary cakes and get rid of some lbs. I will share a little poem one of my mentors and friends sent me.

You've reached your seventh decade
You've come so very far
Here's a few examples
Of just how old you are
You tend now to forget
How often your memory fails
Or the frequency at which
Your train of thought derails
Half your supermarket shopping
Says 'For fast relief'
You no longer sleep with your wife
Nor, indeed, with your teeth
When did your wild oats
Turn to shredded wheat?
You can pinch an inch...on your forehead
But you can't see your feet
Being awake past 9 pm
Is you staying up late
You're well past your Best Before
And sexpiration date
You tend to say "nowadays"
More often than you should
And it now takes you twice as long
To look half as good
This is not to insult you
Or to give you grief or sorrow
It's just to remind you
Your eighth decade starts tomorrow
