You know you are getting old when . . . .

* Your mind remembers how to do something, but your body will not
cooperate to do what is needed. :shock:

* You remember MANY things from Junior High School, better than what
you did yesterday (this morning? - five minutes ago?). :?

* You once could pick up something with your thumb and index finger,
that now takes both hands, both legs, and a back willing to cooperate.

* When you drive, you wonder WHY those people are in such a rush to get
where-ever they are going, because you will catch up to them at the next
traffic signal.

* When you drive, you wonder WHY they have traffic lights, since so
many people ignore them and do what ever THEY want.
Same with speed limits. :roll:

* You realize that NO ONE has to have A/C in their car, but you have
decided you will never be without at least one car with A/C.

* When you buy a new car, you pick the one that is easiest
to get in to and out of. :wink:

* You are coming to hate TV because the story lines in one hour programs
are so disjointed. You start with one program and finish in another
(called a nap).

* Restaurants automatically give you a senior discount.

* Your daughter just turned fifty.

* You are a great-grand parent.

* You understand that all of those cell phone "apps" actually give
unrestricted access to all of your personal information, to the app,
and that allows them to send it where ever they want; so you do not
have any of them. :shock:

* You REFUSE to have a house with only one bathroom, if you are going
to have any visitors. :wink:

:D
 
When your realize that those old chamber pots were pretty handy at 0300. :wink:

I can relate to most of those statements. In my 50's (tell kids I'm still 29) and I still have my padlock from Junior High; yes still remember the combo. My son uses it at college. AARP is a wonderful thing! No grand kids yet. I can still do what my body allowed me to do 30 years ago; just takes me 2 days to recover; regardless of what it is.
No chamber pot. When I get up at 3 to pee; dog usually wants out so I just go off the deck waiting for him to finish.

As long as they are anti-gun I will have absolutely nothing to do with them. :x

AARP is junk mail to the trash. I am a great grandpa x2. Who would have thought.
