Dear God, about being old...
Last week, I turned 48 and began receiving all manner of old folk's emails and videos, as well as mailers from AARP, The Scooter Store, and Hoverround!
This is Mary Maxwell, 72 y/o new client of a program called Home Instead, giving the invocation at a dinner. Her prayer is delivered with such comedic talent, I had to post it here. It's over 7 minutes, but well worth your time!
I admire her attitude and comedic timing as well as her deadpan facial expressions which make the delivery of such timeless humor a joy to watch.

She’s wonderful! I also identify with several things she said….don’t have most of the signs of getting old yet, but have seen them with my parents. And like Carla, some days I wonder how I got so old while other days I still run circles around those half my age. This was wonderful! I loved the phrase you don’t get to practice being old….it just creeps up on you. Perhaps if I keep going so quickly, it won’t be able to catch me to creep up on me! LOL! Thanks for sharing it, JoJo.
