BABY BOOMER BEATLE'S SONG STUCK IN MY HEAD






WELL, I THOUGHT 65 WOULD BE THE NEXT MILESTONE FOR DONNA AND I TO CROSS-
BOY, WAS I WRONG!!!!!!!!
FOR ALL OF YOU YOUNG AT HEARTS WHO MIGHT REMEMBER THE BEATLES IN THE 60'S AND 70'S-YOU KNOW THAT THEY WERE IN THEIR EARLY TWENTIES WHEN SUCCESS FOUND THEM!
AT THAT AGE THEY WERE INVINCIBLE AND THUS SANG SONGS ABOUT MANY THINGS INCLUDING AGING, WITH NO THOUGHT ABOUT HOW IT MIGHT AFFECT US BABY BOOMERS DECADES LATER!
AS YOU MIGHT HAVE ALREADY GUESSED-THE MILESTONE THAT WE CROSSED WAS
YIKES!!!
64!
I WALKED AROUND ALL DAY AND NIGHT FOR WEEKS WITH THIS BEATLES SONG IN MY HEAD...........WHEN YOU ARE OLD AND 64..............
WHY COULDN'T  THEY WRITE  THE SONG ANOTHER WAY...........LIKE
WHEN YOU'RE YOUNG AND 24? THAT SOUNDS GOOD TO ME!
OR WHY NOT WRITE THE SONG........ WHEN YOU ARE YOUNG AND 64?
I LIKE THAT WORDING  MUCH BETTER!
SO, THE MILESTONE HAS COME AND GONE AND I AM NOW CHOOSING TO SING THE SONG..... WILL YOU STILL LOVE ME WHEN I AM YOUNG AND 64! OLD WILL NOT-I REPEAT NOT ENTER MY MIND AGAIN-WELL AT LEAST UNTIL I AM 65!
ENJOY!
NEW TREASURES OFF TO MONTICELLO!
DIANA, DONNA AND DEBBY

Well, I'm not singing that song yet, but I'm close to it! Just hit the 62 mark and getting my first SS check! Ah, the perks of getting old.
