With the timing of a professional comedian, this diminutive "little old lady" shines a very funny light on the foibles of aging, to the delight of an audience filled with senior-care experts.
A friend of the couple who founded Home Instead Senior Care, Mary Maxwell was asked to give the invocation at the company's 2009 Convention. Initially it seemed like a normal prayer, but it soon took a very funny turn. Her deadpan delivery and lines like ...This is the first time I've ever been old... and it just sort of crept up on me ... had everyone rolling in the aisles.
For more of Mary's unique view on aging, check out her video blog on CaregiverStress.com:

She's KILLIN' IT!!!
I drove into the wrong end of a car wash recently
....and a friend of mine also looked down at my feet
recently and said, "Why do you have two totally
different shoes on??"
I'm screaming with laughter over here.
She may not have the "Moves Of Mick Jagger"
but she's killin' it!
