life is a choice

every minute of my life is a choice I can exercise, clean, eat, write, paint, cartoon or watch TV Today I chose TV land I could have snacked on lettuce, tomatoes, or carrots I chowed down instead on donuts and candy bars Water was readily available, but I chose soda pop I had some cinnamon rolls too, with extra frosting the longer I sit and eat sugar and carbs, the less energy I have This does not concern me, I am old and tired. I like naps The TV is running, but I barely look at it I use it like a radio, listening while I do other things I am playing word games because I love them and life is a choice At this minute I am enjoying these choices Tomorrow might be different, But these are my choices on this lazy hundred degree day
