Our New Digs

Just moved to our brand new abode Been checking out the surroundings Overjoyed with what we've discovered Find our new digs really astounding Everything is just a stones throw away It's a vibrant and exciting new town Parks and trails to keep our bodies in shape A whole new lifestyle we've found Feels like we've just travelled back in time Recapturing our youth once more Like a fresh new beginning, a fresh new start With exciting new things to explore This life changing move was long overdue It's so easy to become complacent And miss out on all the good things in life Things that provide enrichment What I'm suggesting if this could be you It doesn't have to be quite so drastic Just a simple thing a bit out of the ordinary The results you'll find are fantastic © Jack Ellison 2013

Glad you like the new place. I think some people avoid change so much they don't realize how refreshing a new start can be. Keep up the great work

Your home! So I should sing 'Welcome to my world... Won't you come on in...' Can't remember who sang it, but it sounds sooo coool. Doctor said I needed a therapist for my legs who said I needed a cane... He said it would keep me from falling...Naw... No way... I would fall over every time I dropped the silly cane... LOL... I get around just fine... a few exercises will do... or walking my 86lb puppy......opps... She's getting older... I'm beginning to get the idea she needs a cane... LOL
