So my nephew is getting married today. In and of itself, that's not really a big deal. BUT. I used to bath this kid as a baby. I'm feelin' old  |

I'm feelin' old To Quote my father, "Getting old beats the alternative." Don't feel bad about getting old. Some people don't have the chance. Some people I knew died in high school, one of my nieces died less than 24 hours of being born, and one of my old work buddies died a couple of years ago from a heart attack. If you live long enough you'll be around death. So, instead of feeling bad about your age feel happy that you get to live. To quote my older brother "Age isn't free you trade your youth." In my humble opinion that's a price worth paying to get o spend more time with the people I care about. So, Scencerly congradulations on get old. At least you get to see your nephew on his wedding day. If you hadn't got old then attending the wedding would have been impossible in the living sense. |

Eh, you'll probably still be alive by the time we invent robot bodies. Congratulations to your cousin!

How did your sibling get you to bathe their kid? My bro spoils the tykes with presents but doesn't lift a finger in the child rearing department... neither does my sister in-law. Sounds like you are an awesome uncle!

My Mom ran a daycare in our home since the time I was 1 year old. Caring for children is really my first love.
Even if it weren't, in my family its expected that we all take care of one another (I'm the youngest of 5). When my sister worked nights and somebody had to be able to take care of her kids, it fell to me.

Getting old isn't all bad - at least you get +1 to Intelligence, Wisdom and Charisma.

Wow, F-Bomb, that's one of the few things I've heard lately that actually makes sense (and I heard a lot of things that didn't, let me tell you that). Very philosophical, wise and logical at the same time. I totally agree with you. Congrats for your nephew, WK. ^_^ |
