Getting Old
You'll all love this!"
#1
I very quietly confided to my best friend that I was having an affair.
She turned to me and asked, "Are you having it catered?"
And that, my friend, is the sad definition of "OLD"!
#2
Just before the funeral services, the undertaker came up to the elderly widow and asked, "How old was your husband?"
"98," she replied: "Two years older than me"
"So you're 96," the undertaker commented.
She responded, "Hardly worth going home, isn't it?"
#3
>>> Reporters interviewing a 104-year-old woman:
>>> "And what do you think is the best thing
>>> about being 104?" the reporter asked.
>>> She replied, "No peer pressure."
#4
>>> I've sure gotten old! I have outlived my feet and my teeth
>>> I've had two bypass surgeries, a hip replacement,
>>> new knees, fought prostate cancer and diabetes
>>> I'm half blind,
>>> can't hear anything quieter than a jet engine,
>>> take 40 different medications that
>>> make me dizzy, winded, and subject to blackouts.
>>> Have bouts with dementia.
>>> Have poor circulation;
>>> hardly feel my hands and feet anymore.
>>> Can't remember if I'm 85 or 92.
>>> Have lost all my friends. But, thank God,
>>> I still have my driver's license.
#5
I feel like my body has gotten totally out of shape,
>>> so I got my doctor's permission to
>>> join a fitness club and start exercising.
>>> I decided to take an aerobics class for seniors.
>>> I bent, twisted, gyrated, jumped up and down, and perspired for an hour. But,
>>> by the time I got my leotards on,
>>> the class was over.
#6
An elderly woman decided to prepare her will and told her preacher she had two final requests.
>>> First, she wanted to be cremated, and second,
>>> she wanted her ashes scattered over Wal-Mart.
>>> "Wal-Mart?" the preacher exclaimed.
>>> "Why Wal-Mart?"
>>> "Then I'll be sure my daughters visit me twice a week"
#7
>>> My memory's not as sharp as it used to be.
>>> Also, my memory's not as sharp as it used to be.
#8
Know how to prevent sagging? Just eat till the wrinkles fill out.
#9
It's scary when you start making the same noises
as your coffee maker.
#10
These days about half the stuff
in my shopping cart says, 'For fast relief.'
#11 THE SENILITY PRAYER :
>>> Grant me the senility to forget the people
>>> I never liked anyway,
>>> the good fortune to run into the ones I do, and
>>> the eyesight to tell the difference.
Now, I think you're supposed to share this with 5 or 6, maybe 10 others.
Oh heck, give it to a bunch of your friends if you can remember who they are!

It was blowing snow here this AM. Really, really sick of winter!
.....................
Assuming, of course, the 'alternative' doesn't getcha first.

April...The cruelest month.
April so far, has been worst than March! Just check upcoming weather next week. Looks like warmer sunny weather!
Example:
The other day the doorbell rang. I answered it. Really nice looking lady was there! I was polite and ask her how I could help her? She said: "I'm your girlfriend"! "Are you going to invite me in"?
Have to focus on remembering the important things!
Just joking!
It's April! You can get a real mix! Our winter wasn't bad. Didn't have as much snow as usual and had a lot of warm days!
As for Getting Old, I don t know what it is about me having to use a cane (because of my ms), people figure I m deaf . What has a cane got to do with being deaf
I just might play the part (deaf), when I don t care to listen to stupidity,
If you are going to be accused of being deaf, might as well play the part.
Take care Ito.
LOL, fun blog.
When some people tell me, "Hey, you're finally getting old."
I answer, "No, I'm not getting old. I'm already OLD."
Have a great day!
I see how I grow old
But to myself I have no claims,
I already - am not photogenic,
And I treat myself ironically:
I still would like to live,
And not just to live, and to love,
And to love not only only a day,
And to love still a moonlight night...
Also there was a wish to love the man,
Despite my wrinkles,
For me still life goes on,
So far my desires don't come to an end...
Yes, I see that I grow old,
But I still will dare to love.
