Not
An
Old
Fart


I am beginning to realize that the OLD FART mentality is NOT based on chronological age, it's attitude.
It's apathy about getting older, and resigning oneself to sitting on the sidelines, being a SPECTATOR, rather
than a PARTICIPANT- because it takes too much energy ( often accompanied by a neglect of ones' health)

YEP, I understand this- all too well. I was on the sidelines 2 yrs ago.......and got fed up with it. Decided I wasn't going
to spend the rest of my life watching TV, and for *EXCITEMENT* going out to eat, going to the movies, and......playing Scrabble.

I realized this past weekend that 98% of my family is like this. It's depressing to be around. I want to run around, I wanna do things I haven't done in years...........I wanna go to the amusement park...........even if I gotta go alone..........


SHOUT out to my 2 FANTASTIC daughters, ages 28 and 30, who would HAPPILY accompany me in a heartbeat........
They're in the 2% category that will NEVER be a part of the NAOF club either.
