Welcome To The Future

 I have just realized (and yes, I am a little slow on the uptake) that I am living in my future. 

I've been a child, a scholar, a wife, a mother, a worker, a grandparent and now I am an elderly retiree. This is my future. There is no more on the horizon for me except more of the same until I slip into infinity. I have no need to prepare for any more stages of life. 

I have done what I can to take any burden off our daughter and society....our ultimate 'disposal ' costs have been prepaid. I continue to rid our home of unnecessary items that otherwise would have to be disposed of by someone else. I have no debt left to be taken care of. If our present living accommodation becomes more than we can handle we will take action and move to assisted living in this senior community. 

All i have to do now is get from the beginning to the end of each day until there are no more days. I am living in my future.
