Random musings approaching 'the wall'..........

My eldest informed me that some of her friends were asking when I was going to write something interesting again....and she suggested that I do a blog......O well, I don't know how interesting this will be but wot the heck, if Rosie can do it, I can also....

So they tell me there's a wall that everybody hits when they reach a certain age.....I never really believed that but I didn't disbelieve it either....Gotta be truthful...never tho't about it....I think I just felt like age was just a number and a relatively meaningless one at that.....ANYWAY....it appears that I may have encountered that mystical wall.....HOO-AH! I would never use a term like that for real...that's something that they do in 3rd rate movies and 2nd rate teevee shows.....howsomever I was surprised to learn that I have lymphatic cancer.....not really frightened, mind you, but surprised and confused....I've heard that nothing quite focuses the mind as an intimate moment with your own mortality.......not true, at least for me....I've been magnificently confused and pretty much unable to get my coherent ducks in any sort of row..........
So this is me trying to get my ducks in a row......
O...and Justin Other Smith is a nom de plume that I tho't was really cool when I adopted it back in the halycon fifties......kind'a corny now but then, I s'poze, so'm I......David
