This is about me, so completely unique, and yet so much the same.
No that's not me, that's the beloved youngest member of our family , Brix!!!
To name four things about me:
NOW: I am slow and slightly dim-witted.
THEN: I was fast thinking, a workaholic with a high IQ
NOW: I am plain with little sense of fashion
THEN:I was plain with little sense of fashion
NOW: I can rhyme stories quite well - That doesn't make me a good poet.
THEN: I wasn't much of a poet.
NOW: I am not much of a gardener.
THEN: I wasn't much of a gardener.
I have seen all I care to see. I don't have a bucket list. OH hold on, I changed my mind on that one - I care to see world peace.
I am a lover of poetry. Particularly Aussie poetry and I must count Terry Ireland's poetry in that, even though he is a Pommie.
I am a lover of genuine people. All sorts.
I love our adorable 10 year old Bullmastiff.
Of course I love my family, and one or two super good friends. ( but they are included in "genuine people').
Three feelings- Hot - cold - pain
I fear anyone I know being ill or injured.
Born and bred in paradise. ( Sydney Australia).
Last name . Hmmmmmmm that's a hard one. I will leave this one blank.
( I am sure most of you know it anyway).
I know there is a place for me in this world, as I am needed.
The guy I have shacked up with for the last 52 years conceded,
That I'm useful at times and that without me he would be lost .
He looked at hiring, a cook and a maid - it wasn't worth the cost.
