Its official... I'm getting old

I am starting to recognize that some of the things I enjoy in life has drastically changed in the last couple of years...


The first thing is that I have started to do crossword puzzles. he he he I am giggling b/c I used to read Cosmo, looking for some sultry love advice and how to get a man. Now I have a man.... actually I have two but one of them has to wear a diaper and throws fits. ( I won't say which one ) Anywho.... Gone are the Cosmo days and now are the crossword days. Its as much as keeping my mind sharp after countless rounds of the wheels on the bus as fun. I actually look forward to long car rides b/c I may get to do 2 puzzles. Woohoo!!

I am not the only one. One of my best friends recently confided that she is really into sudoku. She said she really gets into it ... I least I know I am not alone. When I went to go get my latest crossword puzzle book, the young teenybopper sales clerk told me that her grandmother really liked them too. That makes me feel better.

Another thing that I have noticed is that one of my favorite things to do is read the Sunday paper over a cup of coffee before church. ( Actually the cartoons and sales ads... enjoyable all the same to me ) I remember wondering why in the world would anyone enjoy reading the paper and -blek- drinking coffee..... Boy how times have changed.

I'll admit it...I am the dork friend addicted to Sudoku! :-) I'm getting in to crosswords too...and you know my addiction with the newspaper. I have to read it every day now. I have an order: celebrity gossip, business, local news, national news. And then my puzzles. LOL...we are getting old! :-)
