Quite a run-a-round.SHARONhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18408136143188209922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6133818088253582089.post-37516249023461782972011-11-29T08:36:37.746-05:002011-11-29T08:36:37.746-05:00I'm not sure but I think medicare will pay for...I'm not sure but I think medicare will pay for one of those scooters with a script from the doctor!..Just get it if you can and park it in the living room..lol...he will try it when know one is looking.

I will be 70 in a year and two months. Isn't it funny that at either end of your life you count your age in years, months, weeks, and even days? You know, like "he will be 1 year old in 27 more days or he will be 100 in 27 more days.Dizzy-Dickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14150939928800538404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6133818088253582089.post-45028044994250930072011-11-28T09:07:07.106-05:002011-11-28T09:07:07.106-05:00What a great idea!

Trouble is he's been saying that since he was 70, and he was thinking about buying a new truck. That was 3 trucks ago. But, thanks for the imput. It gives me ammunition.SHARONhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18408136143188209922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6133818088253582089.post-86383580767376115062011-11-27T20:38:36.802-05:002011-11-27T20:38:36.802-05:00Sounds like you had a working holiday weekend.

But maybe if you let him catch you reading a few scooter magazines, it will spark the conversation.<br /><br />Dad: "I'M not using one of those!"<br /><br />You: "I know ...not until it's your only option, but I want to be ready."<br /><br />Dad: "Only option?"<br /><br />You: "You keep NOT using the cane and your knees will get so bad they won't work at all. THEN it will be your only option."<br /><br />Manipulative, I know. And only a slim to none chance it will make him try using the cane. But, hey, they manipulated US when we were kidlets ...that's how we learned this stuff! <br /><br />: )HossBosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13444735851486747330noreply@blogger.com
