This I’ve Learned

I WAS THINKING…
about Valentine’s Day. It couldn’t come at a better time. It’s in the middle of winter, this Covid “Stuff” is getting old and we still have to wait for spring.
Seems like a great time to be reminded that we are loved and a time for us to express our love. Some people even got a box of chocolates. But it’s no big deal for those of us who weren’t so lucky. Some stores have the ‘day after’ sale for maybe even half off.

ON THE LIGHTER SIDE
Henry saw a middle-aged man standing at the counter in the post office. The man was placing ‘Love’ stamps on envelopes that had hearts all over them. He then sprayed the envelops with perfume. Henry’s curiosity got the best of him and he asked what he was doing. The man replied, “I’m sending out one thousand Valentines signed, Guess Who?”. 
“But why?” Henry asked.
“I’m a divorce lawyer,” the man said.

YOU KNOW YOU’RE GETTING OLD
…when you have a party and the neighbors don’t even notice.
…when everybody whispers.
…when you have three sizes of clothes in your closet.  
…when you check the food package ingredients for fiber content.
