Start the day with a song........

This will make you sing....and feel your
age (whatever  that may be!)

Recently Julie Andrews is reported to have done a concert for AARP,
at which she sang her hit from the Sound of Music, but  the words were changed.
Here are the new words to this tune "My favorite Things":
 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++>
Maalox and nose drops and needles for  knitting,
Walkers and handrails and new dental fittings,
Bundles of magazines tied up in strings,
These are a few of my favorite things.

Cadillacs and cataracts...hearing aids and glasses,
Polident and Fixodent and false teeth in  glasses,
Pacemakers, golf carts and porches with swings.
These are a few of my favorite things.

When the pipes leak, When the bones creak,
When the knees go bad,
I simply remember my favorite things,
And then I don't feel so bad.

Hot tea and crumpets, and corn pads for  bunions,
No spicy hot food or food cooked with onions,
Bathrobes and heat pads and hot meals they bring,
These are a few of my favorite things.

Back pains, confused brains, and no fear of 'sinnin',
Thin bones and fractures and hair that is  thinning,
And we won't mention our short shrunken  frames,
If we can remember our friends and their  names.

When the joints ache, when the hips break,
When the eyes grow dim,
I simply remember the great life I've had,
And then I don't feel so bad
