Yesterday my daughter again asked why I didn't do something useful with my time. Talking about my doing something useful seems to be her favorite topic of conversation lately. She said she was only thinking of me and suggested I go down to the senior center and hang out with the folks.
I did so, and when I got home last night I decided to teach her a lesson about staying out of my business. I told her that I had joined a parachute club. She said, "Are you nuts? Mom, you're almost 70 years old and you're going to start jumping out of airplanes?"
I proudly showed her that I even got a membership card. She said to me, "Good grief Mom, where are your glasses? This is a membership to a Prostitute Club, not a Parachute Club."
I told her, "Well, I guess I'm in trouble again, and I don't know what to do... I signed up for five jumps a week."
She fainted.
Life as a senior citizen is not getting any easier, but sometimes it can be fun.
