Welcome To Fifty Five Is The New!

Hello out there!
What's it to you, turning the age of Fifty-five? You don't have to be turning it tomorrow, you could have already turned that corner a while back. That part doesn't matter so much.
While it's important what one feels, what matters most of all that one feels, that one feels anything at all.
So, as an exercise in self-examination and a way of getting over an incredible writer's block, I submit this blog to the World Wide Web, and I submit myself to a bit of mirror gazing.
Inspired by the movie "Julie & Julia," I will blog for one year, which will include my turning fifty-five, and see what I find.
Who knows? Maybe fifty-five will be something fantastic...like the New Me.

The New Day

Greening   Fractal by rcw
Here it is, almost five in the morning and I'm sitting here trying to get a !@&##!?!@!#! file printed.
Well, at least there's the opportunity to write, which is okay for an insomniac like moi. It really wouldn't be all that bad if it weren't for the need of that blankity-blank graphic! Oy!

Guess I could take the easy way out and just use this time as a gripe-fest; an easy thing to do. But time is a precious commodity, even for those who burn the candle at both ends.

We've been suffering the financial crunch like everyone else, and like everyone else have been trying to find ways to keep afloat....it ain't easy on what we got but at least we got each other.

I don't know what to make of the world today....it's nothing like when we were growing up; makes me wonder how kids these days survive it all.  And then I have to laugh, for sounding so much like my parents did when we were growing up. Of course, our parents were too busy being confused by us trying to take over the world.

I'm going to keep this blog entry short....we all know things are hard these days, no need to belabor the idea.  But I'll end it with a prayer that things get better, that we learn to be responsible and humane...and that we get through this mess.

So for today, Fifty Five Is The New Day, because as long as the sun rises there's a new day ahead to make things better.
