Lazy

My bask in July sun, turns into yawns, slumps in a long nap, I wake up half asleep, I want to blame someone else, Is it the shade under the sun? Is it my retired life and old age? Why blame anyone, I had lots of fun.

That is what retirement is for. You earned it--enjoy life, Jay.

At times there is fun in being a little lazy. At our age, a small nap can refresh us. There's no need for blaming anyone or a self reproach.
