(I) "Don't get around much anymore." This Duke Ellington song perfectly describes my current mobility concerns after two hip and one knee replacement and foot problems. This is not a plea for sympathy but a description of the difficulty many old geezers & geezettes face as they age. A cane helps, so does a handicap parking pass and Extra Strength Tylenol. I tend to be able to do many things I have always done but at a much more leisurely pace.
Tony Bennett, who sings the song with Michael Buble, is ten years older than I but still does move pretty well. I guess that singing and painting every day does keep you energetic as well as mobile.
Meanwhile, I have to just "Keep Truckin' since life is grand and music is a great healing force.
