My Golden years

Have you ever wondered how you'd live in your golden years?.. I do all the time and I don't even have kids!... I'm sure that time will come for me as it has for my parents and their parents..
I dream of living in a mobile home park where they have Friday night dances and pancakes on Saturdays. I dream of getting my hair done on Tuesday mornings like the Winter Texans (Well maybe not!..I like my hair washed daily) having cocktails at 5pm and crashing by 9pm
I dream of getting involved in a Garden club or perhaps "The Red Hat Society Club" I dream of having fancy White gloved gourmet luncheons for my sisters in my peaceful, fresh, sweet-smelling Gardenia garden!
I dream of taking long slobbery naps under the dryer in the middle of the afternoon like Mrs King in the above picture!..I dream of wearing RED on Valentines Day and dancing the night away with my husband in the park hall!
I dream of swapping recipes with the younger ladies in the grocery store.I dream of sending delicious desserts along with a beautiful, hand written, scented, stationary note to my neighbors front door steps.
I dream of sitting on my back porch enjoying a nice tall glass of lemonade while admiring my garden and smell of Gardenia's, Esperanza's and Honeysuckle Bushes.

I dream of telling the doctors where they can STICK it for letting patients wait long hours in waiting rooms!...Yes, I think I'm going to love my Golden years!
