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!

Mic,

April so far, has been worst than March! Just check upcoming weather next week. Looks like warmer sunny weather!yay
It's weird Jim because I was mostly in warm places this winter and I'm happy with the snow. Lol
Cat, I think if we live long enough, we will all go thru one of these phases!

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"? rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing

Have to focus on remembering the important things!rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing

Just joking!
Phy,

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!thumbs up
Hello, Jim, Lindsy, and Mic, wave You mentioned weather, up here in my part of Western Canada, the snow is gone , but march, and early april,doh We had freezing rain, cold, warm, melting, more snow, .... day to day changes, made it (too icey) treacherous for walking, and driving,doh Goofy winter,confused
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 . confused What has a cane got to do with being deafdoh
I just might play the part (deaf), when I don t care to listen to stupidity, rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing
12121,



If you are going to be accused of being deaf, might as well play the part.rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing

rolling on the floor laughing All goodies brother Jim, will swipe them all from you. rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing
Jim I'll follow the dogs.
Hi Jim,

LOL, fun blog. laugh

When some people tell me, "Hey, you're finally getting old."

I answer, "No, I'm not getting old. I'm already OLD." doh

Have a great day! thumbs up
Hi. Thanks for the cheerful blog.
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.rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing
Ummka, what day is your birthday?
Old age does have some advantages. If something slips my mind, I just tell everyone that I have CRS syndrome (Can't Remember Shhtuff). It gets a laugh and they commiserate with me. How much better can it get
