When did I start my worry list? As a child I didn't have to worry, that was mom's job. But what did she have to worry about. Certainly not me. Dad had a job, and was a happy fella We did have a TV With a bubble screen But she never watch that. She didn't like cowboy shows or wrestling An There was no news... That's it..... That's when my worry list started... I became a mom of four children What did I have to worry about certainly not them But then I watch the news My children have grown but then I have nine grandchildren And so my worry list continues on shootings at schools children abducted So many tragedies on news From tornadoes to plane crashes Car crashes, Forest fires, Terrorists, Children with a rare cancer With no cure... why, why do I watch the news? So I know what to worry about? Or just because I'm a mom and a grandma
My granddaughter named me THE WORRY ONE...

As I sit and watch the news, I feel a bit of "what if's" . When I think about a simpler time when there was no media....things just happened, but life is a challenge this day...or maybe it's age...
