I confess to a little lapse in maturity
Now I am in my 40s and recently had some medical issues that were making me feel old. Well I was doing my volunteer ambulance work last night. Well I have a couple of guys that are 19-20 who we bust chops with. Well one of them is a couple of inches taller about 20 pounds heavier and is on his college football team. Well at some point he ended up challenging me to an arm wrestling match. I tried to avoid it but finally gave in.

Well long story short I have a little bit of a spring in my step today and I fell a little bit younger.:bounce:

Sure the arms a little sore today, but it was well worth it.

I am all about the simple pleasures in life.
I enjoy small scale, simple living with the occasional Grand Moments.

I really do try to live simply so that others may simply live.
