My computer is not cooperating and my brain is asleep, so enjoy a few goodies courtesy of the internet.
Consider this:
Your kids are becoming you … but your grandchildren are perfect!
Going out is good … coming home is better!
You forget names … it is ok because some people forgot they even knew you!
You realize you are never going to be really good at anything like golf!
The things you used to care to do, you are not as interested in anymore, but you really do not care that you are not as interested!
You sleep better on a lounge chair with the TV on than in bed. It is called pre-sleep!
You miss the days when everything worked with just an “on” and “off” switch!
You tend to use more four letter words … “What” … “When” … ?
You notice everything they sell in stores in sleeveless!
What used to be freckles are now liver spots!
Everybody whispers!
You have three sizes of clothes in your closet … two of which you will never wear!
But “Old” is good in some things; old songs, old movies, and best of all old friends!
Today is the oldest you have ever been; yet the youngest you will ever be, so enjoy this day while it lasts.
