you know you're getting old when . . .

[netmiff]

your friend gets her eyelashes dyed 'cos she can no longer see to put her mascara on

Seriously, she apparently got them done last night at a good spa/beauty salon locally.

You know you're getting old when:
An "all nighter" means sleeping through the night without getting up to go to the bathroom!

LOL ... When...

You're out on a night about town and your energy runs out before your money does...

 

[hensylee]

your parent appears in the bathroom mirror every morning when you are combing your hair............

 

[Ross]

Hmm don't think I have any that can top these.

 

[Superbob]

Hey, finally a subject I am an expert on!

You know you're getting old when...

Your address book has mostly names that start with "Dr."

Everything hurts, and what doesn't hurt -- doesn't work.

At the breakfast table, you hear "snap, crackle, and pop" and you're not eating Rice Krispies.

When your theme song becomes....." I ain't as good as I once was, but I'm as good once as I always was"

Unfortunately, these are all TOO true!

You know you're getting old.....

You know you're getting old.....

.....when you sound like your parents.

When I would rather walk..than climb into the backseat of a 2 door car/truck ....My best friend these days is a small stepstool..that I use most everyday..(true story)..to sit on..if I have to scrape something off the floor...or like yesterday..clean the bottom half of toilet/outside of tub, ect.. .....and when I lose my glasses..I need glasses to find them..

[hensylee]

good for you, Bonnie. I know some who can't rise from the step stool and are stuck there until someone comes home!

 

[hensylee]

you know you're old when:

you know you're old when:

you have to wait for a visitor to come by (or the mailman) and open a jar.

 

[Granbonny]

Yes, Ann..In the bathroom ..I have things to pull myself up...but in the middle of a room..I just grunt and push hard to get up... ..Lucky to still have a Hubby around for jars and other hard things to open... .Especially those child-proof med tops.. ......Bonnie

Your son calls at 9PM and says "Did I wake you"?

 

[Granbonny]

Marie

Marie

YES.. But they know they can call me before 8 a.m. and I will be up. .Normally when they call me..on their way to work..Most times..they are stuck in traffic and just want to chat. Bonnie

Bonny, I do the same thing, this is too funny!!
Since my surgery I have trouble to lean over or crouch....so if the dog barfs on the floor, I sit on a little stepstool to be able to clean it up.
I also have a towel on a chair beside the shower, so that when I am done I can sit there to dry myself off.

Oh yes up pretty early and my husband is usually up before me. I call it dark thirty. Yeah we get those calls too when they are stuck in traffic

When you need your reading glasses glued to your head so that you always know where they are because you cant see anything without them anymore also I can wear them all of the time I used to could'nt walk around with them on they made me dizzy now I don't even have to remove them at all. Must be from being on the computer too much.

You know you're getting old when...

Your wife says, "Let's go upstairs and make love," and you say, "Honey, I can't do both!"

A sexy babe catches your attention when you're out walking, and your pacemaker opens the garage door nearest you.

You have a dream about prunes. (That one is in honor of Cooker)

When you're standing in line at the check-out & you ask the young man behind you to open the bottle of water you just bought!
