The Incredible Shrinking Woman………

You may recall the Lily Tomlin movie called The Incredible Shrinking Woman in which a housewife poisoned by her household cleaning chemicals, shrank to minute proportion. So I am warning my children, your Mother is shrinking!

Weight and height wise, I am slowly disappearing! I expected the weight loss, but what the heck is going on with my height ? With blood sugars a little high, I have been watching my sugar intake, and that resulting in some weight loss.

One of the phenomena of aging is that each day brings a surprise to our physical makeup, and leaves us shaking our heads over new aches, a new wrinkle, a new age spot, a new allergy, all of which we knew might happen one day, but not today

Pardon the personal grousing, but as I pulled up my pants this morning to keep from walking on the hems, and flipped over the waist band until time I could hem them up, I thought to myself, “shrinking, Ellen, shrinking, but still incredible, thanks be to God.”
