Getting Old(er)

You Know You're Getting Old When ... 

...you find yourself standing next to your car with your keys in your hand, but you can't remember whether you're going somewhere or you just got back.

 ...you walk out to the parking lot of the mall, and not only did you forget where you parked, but you also forgot what car you were driving.

 ...your daughter takes you out to dinner, and the cashier takes one look and gives you both senior discounts.

 ...everything hurts, and what doesn't hurt doesn't work.

 ...you reach down to pull up your wrinkled stockings and realize you don't have any on.

 ...when you raise your arm, and you find your "muscle" is now on the bottom side.

 ...when you have as students the grandchildren of your former students.

 ...when you sit down to the breakfast table, and the snap, crackle, pop you hear isn't your breakfast cereal.

 ...when you bend over to tie your shoes and ask yourself, "Is there anything else I need to do while I'm down here?"

 "Inside every old person is a young one wondering what happened."

 This is a site I came across a few minutes ago and for the life of me, I don't remember how I found it. Beware of using the advice, unless you see a date newer than 2007 on it. However, it is a wealth of information and fun. "Older than Dirt quizes" humor, Radio shows, links to other good sites. LJ

Jennifer Jones  

PS from Jennifer:

 Try these links and see if they work for you. If it takes you to a screen and nothing happens, see if you see the words TRY BETA at the upper right corner. If so, click there and see if the video plays from there. I have tried to figure out how to go straight to the site, has a better and bigger screen, but so far I have had no luck.  (Roz says: Try the BETA site like she says. There are some great photos, plus really nice music... Total of 147 pics. It is a slideshow and quite good. It really brought back lots of memories!)
