Welcome To Old Age

You know the sweet spot when you are cocooned in the blanket, sheets are perfect, wrapped around you so snuggly, you feel secure. The pillow cradles you like the bosom of your mother, caressing both sides of your head. Dreams so sweet, you breathe softly, the white noise of the breeze coming through the window, keeping you calm and asleep. Then you have to pee. Welcome to old age.
