Forsake

If I sit down and do nothing I feel guilty and yet that's all I feel like doing at the present. However I had to take a trip into town today to collect some new glasses. When I tried the frames on without the lenses in they looked ok!!! But today with my prescription lenses in they looked awful. I was reminded of Dame Edna Everidge? I paced round my house looking in every mirror and still hated them. So back in the car and back to the opticians to pick out some new frames. Even now I am still not sure. That will teach me to go without my partner, who no doubt, when she sees them, will hate them? I am also too 'vain' to get verifocals and it is getting harder to read the music. I am having to sit further away from the stand to read the dots. Even while I am typing this the screen is in another room so I can see it!!!! I watched an old black and white film last night. 'High Noon' with Gary Cooper and Grace Kelly. There is a great site called Find a Grave and of interest to us Undertakers. Very suspicious about Grace Kellys death at a young age. Mind you old Gary Cooper did not live to a ripe old age either. But what a brilliant film and all made on a shoestring budget. I used to ride on a Sunday in the Army and fancied myself as a bit of a 'Malboro' man? I always tried to pick the same horse called Toby. A massive beast but with a great temperament. the stable lads cottoned on to this and sometimes I ended up with the Horse from Hell and spent most of my time on my a**e. John Wayne eat your heart out.
