OH, WHAT A DISASTER

I have given this a lot of thought. I loved writing my food blog but was thinking that maybe I need to write a blog about this metamorphosis that I am going through.......growing old.......sigh.  What a change in my life.  First of all I never dreamed I would ever be "old" I thought of myself as "forever young" until I looked in the mirror!  In my stage of life there is change everyday, some good but most of all, different.  My emotions range from profound, exciting, heartbreaking, ridiculous, hysterical and, well, complacent.
The incident that transpired this morning.......sealed it......I feel its important to relate  these experiences that I am going through for my own well being. I hope you can laugh at my life as I do.
I looked at the clock, 6:18 am, when I was awaken to a horrible commotion on our patio. A few weeks ago we hired a contractor to add a metal roof over our little patio. He brought his buddy with him to give us an estimate of the cost.  They were both retired contractors in their 70's but seemed very nice and capable so we hired them. They worked for about 10 days and finished our roof.  Their work looked just great and we were really enjoying our shady patio until it rained!  The rain poured in between the roof and where it connected to the house. Now they were willing to come back and reseal it but now that it had gotten so hot here in Oklahoma, felt like they needed cooler weather before they crawled up on the roof to do the work. Only fair.
In the meantime Bob felt compelled to buy a foam sealer and have it on hand for them. What a joke......he actually stared at the can of sealer for days and just couldn't stand it so this morning decided to try to seal the roof from the underside.  I opened the door to the patio to this little man standing there covered in foam, his clothes, his hair, his glasses.......foam was everywhere! On the cement, the chairs, the side of the house, the table, the door......everywhere!!  It took my breath away, I was speechless.......finally, "What the hell are you doing?"  He sheepishly said, "Well, I was trying to seal the roof and it sort of got away from me."  "SORT of got AWAY from you!"  I had to laugh........and quietly spent the next hour hosing down the patio.......
So this is one of the changes I am writing about........my meticulous husband, that always is so careful and precise about every undertaking.....has changed...........sigh.
I am hoping you will enjoy my "old age" experiences.......as there will be a new one everyday.......I am certain.
