GROWING OLDER
GOOD MONDAY TO ALL, SINCE I JUST TURNED 65 I NEED BIGGER PRINT AND HERE ARE SOME OBSERVATIONS ON GROWING OLDER,
YOUR KIDS ARE BECOMING YOU--AND YOU DON`T LIKE THEM, BUT YOUR GRANDCHILDREN ARE PERFECT!
YELLOW BECOMES THE BIG COLOR--WALLS, HAIR, TEETH.
GOING OUT IS GOOD; COMING HOME IS BETTER!
WHEN PEOPLE SAY YOU LOOK "GREAT", THEY ADD "FOR YOUR AGE"!
WHEN YOU NEEDED THE DISCOUNT YOU PAID FULL PRICE. NOW YOU GET DISCOUNTS ON EVERYTHING--MOVIES, HOTELS, FLIGHTS, AND COFFEE.
YOU FORGET NAMES, BUT IT`S OK BECAUSE OTHER PEOPLE FORGOT THEY EVEN KNEW YOU.
YOU ASK YOUR HUSBAND HOW YOUR OUTFIT LOOKS, AND HE TELLS YOU THE TRUTH.
THE 5 POUNDS YOU WANTED TO LOSE IS NOW 15, AND YOU HAVE A BETTER CHANCE OF LOSING YOUR KEYS THAN THE 15 POUNDS.
YOUR HUSBAND IS COUNTING ON YOU TO REMEMBER THINGS YOU DON`T REMEMBER.
THE THING YOU CARED TO DO, YOU DON`T CARE TO DO, BUT YOU CARE THAT YOU DON`T CARE TO DO THEM ANYMORE.
YOUR HUSBAND SLEEPS BETTER ON A LOUNGE CHAIR WITH THE TV BLARING THEN IN DOES IN BED,--IT`S CALLED "PRE-SLEEP"
REMEMBER WHEN YOUR MOTHER SAID "WEAR CLEAN UNDERWEAR IN CASE YOU GET IN AN ACCIDENT"? NOW YOU BRING CLEAN UNDERWEAR IN CASE YOU "HAVE" AN ACCIDENT.
YOU USED TO SAY," I HOPE MY KIDS GET MARRIED? NOW ITS "I HOPE THEY STAY MARRIED"?
YOU MISS THE DAYS WHEN EVERYTHING WORKED WITH JUST AN "ON" AND "OFF" SWITCH.
YOU USE MORE 4 LETTER WORDS--"WHAT"--"WHEN"?
NOW THAT YOU CAN AFFORD EXPENSIVE JEWELRY, IT`S NOT SAFE TO WEAR IT ANYWHERE.
YOU READ 100 PAGES INTO A BOOK BEFORE YOU REALIZE YOU`VE READ IT.
MANY OF THE PEOPLE IN PEOPLE MAGAZINE YOU`VE NEVER HEARD OF.
WHAT USED TO BE FRECKLES ARE NOW LIVER SPOTS.
YOU HAVE 3 SIZES OF CLOTHES IN YOUR CLOSET, 2 OF WHICH YOU WILL NEVER WEAR AGAIN.
BUT OLD IS GOOD IN SOME THINGS--OLD SONGS. OLD MOVIES, AND BEST OF ALL--OLD FRIENDS.
JUST TO LET YOU KNOW, MOST OF THESE APPLY TO ME?
