Observations on Growing Older
- Your kids are becoming you...and you don't like them ...but your grandchildren are perfect!
- 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, but you're too tired to use them.
- You forget names ... but it's OK because other people forgot they even knew you!!!
- The 5 pounds you wanted to lose is now 15 and you have a better chance of losing your keys than the 15 pounds.
- You realize you're never going to be really good at anything .... especially golf. ~Your husband is counting on you to remember things you don't remember.
- The things you used to care to do, you no longer care to do, but you really do care that you don't care to do them anymore.
- Your husband sleeps better on a lounge chair with the TV blaring than he does in bed. It's called his "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, "I hope they STAY married!"
- You miss the days when everything worked with just an "ON" and "OFF" switch..
- When GOOGLE, ipod, email, modem .... were unheard of, and a mouse was something that made you climb on a table.
- You use more 4 letter words .... "what?"..."when?" ???
- Now that you can afford expensive jewelry, it's not safe to wear it anywhere.
- Your husband has a night out with the guys but he's home by 9:00 P.M. ...next week it will be 8:30 P.M.
- You read 100 pages into a book before you realize you've read it.
- Now that your husband has retired .... you'd give anything if he'd find a job!
- You have 3 sizes of clothes in your closet .... 2 of which you will never
