I Am Rambling

@GeniUs I miss stories my Dad would bring home. His collection of words were always entertaining.

I've just told my partner a story about my parents which had us both roaring with laughter! I'm not going to put it here just yet as it's long but the jist of the story was, they were going to wallpaper a room but my dad wouldn't buy a ladder...

Yea ... I attended a funeral a few years back of the husband of one of my wife's friends He was about 85 or so and except for us and the now widow and a few family members there was just the military rifle team and honor guard. The honor guard made up half of the graveside crowd.

By 85, 60%+ of his old friends and relatives had probably passed away, and many of those still alive were challenged to just stay alive. He'd left his old workplace 20 years earlier and long since been forgotten.

Military service means that you will still be remembered and honored 50+ years later. And thanked for your service.

@Carla1951 I was not trying to correct your spelling as I did not even notice any misspelled words in your post. Sorry if I gave such an impression. My point was simply that seniors aren’t the only ones who ramble. At 63, I am a senior myself.

@OldSchool Merci. Carla is still learning.

@Carla1951 I am still learning also. It is quite commendable on your part that you seem open and receptive to learning.
For one thing, new technology including computers, tablets, and cell phones-all of that is a “learning curve” for me!

@Carla1951 There was nothing at all wrong with your statement. I did not even think that it ran rampant. I never meant to sound critical in any way. Again, sorry if I gave any impression other than intended.
As for rambling, my wife is 22 years younger than I, and she has admitted that she was rambling. Perhaps that is the result of living with me! Lol

[@Carla your good,far too often I Carla realize I I don't feel comfortable when another catches an error, something I overlooked.i blame myself and my age. Good night from Florida.

@Carla1951 Good afternoon. If your reply was meant for me, I did not mean to give the impression I was correcting an error. In fact, I found your comment quite interesting.
I hope you are well today.

@Carla1951 If you are referring to my wife and me, thanks!
