It can be fun growing old together!
Mom and I are getting old but we're still having lots of laughs!
We each celebrate birthdays in the next few weeeks.I am so old that my birthday suit needs ironing.
I will be 64 but Jeannie said age is just a number
and hers is unlisted.
The candles on my cake will cost more than the cake.
I knew this day was coming!

Latest Report Of My Health Issues
Dedicated to my good friend, Juan Cardona,
who loves Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream
My doctor put me on a diet
and you would be so proud of me.
I’m beginning to eat sensibly
rather than everything I see.
I gave up the cream filled donuts,
sacrificed the candy bars.
I eat popcorn without butter
and look for “sugar free” on all jars.
All my milk is only one percent
and it isn’t even white.
It’s better to go to bed early
than stay up and snack at night.
I use to look a lot like Buddha
and I want to look like Popeye.
So I ought to eat my spinach
But I can’t force myself to try.
I am juicing lots of veggies
and I now eat whole wheat bread.
I gave up all the fried foods
and I’m baking things instead.
I am drinking so much water
The bath tub is where I sleep.
Some times when standing at the frig
my wife has heard me weep.
I now eat turkey hot dogs
but I’m not allowed to eat the bun.
Watching other people enjoy dessert
is not a lot of fun.
Life offers little happiness
and not a lot of joy,
when other folks are feasting
and your meal is made of soy.
I have juiced so many carrots
that my skin is orange and rough.
Since I chew pieces of raw garlic
Jeannie isn’t kissing me enough.
I’m loosing weight so rapidly
my clothes now hang on me.
I will have to use suspenders
or embarrassed we all might be.
I said “No thanks” so many times
to food loaded with calories.
And the people at McDonalds
don’t even remember me.
It’s really quite amazing
at my success since I’ve begun.
But tonight I sinned against my body
because Ben and Jerry won.
~ Dave

RECENT HEALTH PROBLEMS
This has been a year with several health problems. Sunday while I was preaching in the morning in Starke, Florida a health problem started that required some minor surgery at the VA hospital last evening. I am suppose to stay in bed a couple of days so it gave me time to think and write some things I want to share with you.
When I think of all my friends
I try to leave a good impression.
Hiding all my flaws and faults from you,
with me is an obsession.
I have some personal problems
that are difficult to go through.
These are things that I've kept secret
and never shared with you.
I live with fallen arches
so I often limp a lot
My temperature is never stable
sometimes I’m cold sometimes I’m hot.
I have a bunion growing huge
on my little toe
But I seldom take my shoe off
so it doesn’t often show.
My halitosis often bothers others
I can see that very much.
So I drink a bottle of Listerine
each day with my lunch.
I have another problem
of a personal delicate kind,
When Preparation H was invented
they had me in mind.
As a little child I played
with toads and frogs a lot
It’s hard to even imagine
all the warts I’ve got.
I’m taking water retention pills
because I frequently have to pee.
Now that problem has cleared up
but I’ve got water on my knee.
I’m always finding hair
in all of the wrong places.
It’s on my shirt and in the sink
or on the pillowcases.
Hair keeps growing out my ears
and even out my nose.
And it stopped appearing on my head
where once it use to grow.
I remember being thin and debonair
though handsome I was not.
Now things have changed and I’ve begun
to resemble Buddha quite a lot.
When it comes to eating food I like
it’s through gluttony that I’ve sinned.
I love cooked cabbage and spicy food
but you don’t want to be down wind!
Incontinence can be embarrassing
and a humiliating difficulty.
Medical science came to my rescue,
because Imodium was made for me.
I need some liposuction
for huge wrinkles where I sit.
My chest fell to my stomach
now it sticks out quite a bit.
My eyesight has begun to fail
and I can’t hear as well.
That is just about all I can think of
that I really care to tell.
(You can see I need a lot of prayer)
Dave : )
THAT DEPENDS
Thank you for praying for me during my recent hospital stay!
I wrote a little poem about the experience, called:
"That Depends"
I went to a hospital emergency room
while feeling very sick.
The E.R, nurse held up a needle and said
“You’ll feel a little stick.”
I had an I.V. in both arms
tied down so they would not bend.
I said, “Will I be here long?”
and she said, “Well that depends.”
Pneumonia was the diagnosis
so I was admitted to the I.C.U.
The supervising nurse said,
“Do not worry I will take care of you.”
She took away my cell phone
and I could not call my friends.
“When do I get it back I ask?
“She said, “Well that depends.”
She also took away my clothes
along with all my dignity.
I’m too embarrassed to even tell
all that was done to me.
I had oxygen blowing in my nose
and a catheter in the other end.
I said, “What of this is really necessary?”
The nurse said “That depends.”
I was wired to a monitor,
that beeped when my heart sped up.
The nurse came in and said,
“We need a specimen” and handed me a cup.
I tried to be very modest
but I could only just pretend.
She said, “What do you need help with, Honey?”
and I said “Well that depends.”
The food was bland, the medicine strong
in the hospital those six days.
Vitamins, exercise and taking care of yourself,
when you’re younger really pays.
Before I checked out and headed home
I asked the question curiosity lends,
“What do you call those loin cloths I wore?
The nurse said, “That depends”.

Happy Birthday Grandpa - (63 or 36)
Celebrating my 63rd Birthday,
I received a precious card from
my good friends, Dr. and Mrs. Mike Wells
with a picture of an old car.
I think the note was referring to me though. It said:
Worn out Chassis,
Not-So-Hot Headlights,
Sagging Rear-end,
Bumpy, Splotchy Surface.
(Sagging rear-end?) - Yep definately me!

Isn't it comforting to know that when you are about

your buddy is standing there
taking photos?

In 1976 we were missionaries

Jeannie and I are on deputation again.
I saw a picture of a modern camper
that would sure be nice!

I Love Monsters, Mud and Mess - Joseph Douglass
Kristi Morrow, a friend from Faith Baptist in Shelby, North Carolina sent this to us :I've attached a couple pics of Joseph. It was so hilarious how this happened. We were all playing volleyball at a friend's birthday party and then we heard Brother Daniel start yelling Joseph's name. We all looked at Joseph and started cracking up because the little guy was playing in a mud puddle...a deep one! Joseph heard his daddy and turned to get out of the puddle, but lost his balance and fell face forward right back into it. Daniel was sooooooooo funny!!!! I'm not sure who cracked us up more. Joseph or Brother Daniel. The thing is, Joseph had on a shirt that read I love monsters, mud, and mess. Well, he had the mud. He had the mess. And Daniel was his monster. ROFL!!!
