It's no joke

The older we get,

the fewer things

seem worth waiting in line for.

**********************************

Some people

try to turn back their odometers.

Not me!

I want people to know why

I look this way.

I've traveled a long way

and some of the roads weren't paved.

**********************************

One of the many things

no one tells you about aging

is that it is such a nice change

from being young.

**********************************

Ah, being young is beautiful,

but being old is comfortable.

**********************************

First you forget names,

then you forget faces.

Then you forget to pull up your zipper...

it's worse when

you forget to pull it down.

I don't see a problem there Beth, even though girls usually knock 15 years off their ages. Just remember to pull them up again, you might trip

Agree with Ripley - old age can be a mix of things but one is for sure, going through the wealth of memories and photos.

Seeing as I haven't got there yet, don't know anything about old age but they were funny! :D :) :P

My doctor told me only last week we are not considered old until the age of 75 and i am only 71 so there love from Dorothy xx

I feel 18 inside (a jaded 18 but there you go). Always get a shock when I look in the mirror and see this overweight middle aged woman. I suffer from the reverse to anorexia! I always think I am thinner than I am :d
