how can this be???


the top 81 songs from 1972...
(some of the best songs of all time, too)
I was 10 years old...
Ok, I get it's been awhile since 1972...
but not 52 years...
do y'all have "sticker shock" like I do?
I think it all started when I turned 50...
my old favorites have been on the oldie channels for a long, long time...
I admit that...
but that number 52 just is so unbelievable...
the one thing that got me "several" years ago was when the songs my kids listened to in high school...
were being played on my oldies station, too...
y'all, that just wasn't right...
I get it's 2024...
I understand I am as old as dirt...
I feel it in my bones every day...
but do they really have to rub my nose in it?
LOL
golly gee, the joys of growing old...
I so understand the eyerolls my parents and grandparents did when they had to deal with my younger generation...
how they could ignore the newest fad and go on with their days...
that they didn't have to be "cool" or "with it" to be happy in their lives...
they just kept on being them...
doing it their way...
and we have to laugh at it all...
how things come full circle in our lives...
how time moves on behind our backs while we are living our lives...
I am so grateful God has been there through all the chapters...
all the ups and downs...
all the joy He has placed in my life through the years...
looking back, it's so easy to see all the happy years...
praying that I continue to see the joy, feel the happy times...
all the way to the finish...
I may never get over my 'sticker shock'...
but, that's ok...
;)
have a wonderfully blessed day...
