How do you know when you're getting older?
When you can't get up from a seated position without pain in the lower back. Oh to be younger again....without the pain that is. |
When you think you've seen or heard everything and you figure out you are still not sure if you should believe what you see and hear.
|
You know you're gettin' older when you think of tjis really great thang you wanna post, but by the time you get logged on, you just stare at the page and your brain goes totally blank, you can't even remember which thread you wanted to go to.
|
You know you are getting older when you reminisce to you self about how you miss portable cassette players and portable cd players when your iphone has run out of power.
|
Your body creeks while trying to get out of bed.
|
I was looking at a mountain the other day...thinking how I could get up there. While pondering, I realized the face of the mountain was a sheer rock cliff. I thought better of trying to hike it lol
|
The only thing that come's to mind is....brain fog.Really sucks.

burning the candle on both ends is no longer an optionhttp://sjreisner.com/wp-content/uplo...both-ends1.jpg
|
I know I'm getting old because I moved some heavy stuff early this weak and the soreness lasted for more days than usual lol. I like feeling sore as it is sort of a feeling of accomplishment but that was ridiculous!
|
You need a heating pad on more days then normal!
|
I remember when a hashtag was a pound sign. And I know I'm old, cause I remember it was a tic tac toe game! Lol
|
When you wake up stiff in the morning.. making it difficult to get out of bed.
|
when I start off a sentence.. "I remember when..."
and instantly feel reminded of my grandparents. |
I felt old when I met my new partner on the truck and she tells me she's 22.
|
When you wake up wondering why your shoulder is so sore, and then you realize it is because you played Wii bowling the night before. :blush:
|
How do you know when you are getting older?
When you have the bladder of a newborn, and have to get out of bed every couple of hours to sleepwalk to the bathroom. |
~~ when someone 1/2 your age thinks they just taught you something ~ that u already forgot ~~ lol
|
When you realize your parents are depending on you to care for them.
|
When you can no longer read the fine print.
Also, I am grumpy a lot more now lol. |
when going out to eat just doesn't give you that excited o'boy feeling anymore. It's like geez shower change clothes drive all the way back to town. Wait on a table, order, they bring the wrong stuff, forget to bring the extra condiments. Eat wait on the check, tip them more than they deserve and drive all the way back home. Coulda already cooked cleaned up the kitchen and been in my sweats watching TV by then.
LOL grumpy ole fart I am |
When the only people laughing at your jokes are your grandchildren and only cause they want a cupcake.
|
Cruise...
When the theme song from the tv show *The Love Boat* plays and I can sing it word for word.
This actually happened today and only two others who knew it: sang it with me! |
When you start comparing pill boxes at the pharmacy. When the pharmacist knows you by name. When you open your mouth and your mother comes out. :| When it snows and you are prepared to hunker down until Spring rather than shovel. |
you know you're getting old when...
you can relate to EVERYONES post on this thread.. oh good lordy. lol |
You get 7 to 8 hours of sleep and you still cannot stay up late.
|
When the word lazy takes on a new meaning or is replaced by "resting"

When you have to "exercise" your cognitive skills. :blink:
|
A person does not become an old curmudgeon, they usually start out as a young curmudgeon...well I did anyway! :pirate-steer:
|
When the temps hit the 20's and you start thinking about the value of remote car starters and programmable thermostats. |
When you make a joke about staying inside because
its icy out and you don't want to slip and break a hip. (and you sort of mean it) |
My 'baby' sister, who is (high ranking) Retired Military, got a tickle from the Care Bear birthday card I sent...(this is her first birthday in over 20 years that she wasn't in the military)... she said she was tickled that I remembered she liked the Care Bears...I responded that I remember when she got her first Care Bear when they first came on the market. I also remember when she "was a grumpy little girl" that slammed down her "Grumpy Bear" drinking glass and broke it. She's not a little girl anymore but she will always be my baby sister, no matter what rank she held. Hell, the baby sister in her still loves Care Bears!
My son's father is also recently Retired Military... I remember when they both enlisted just a few months apart...I know I'm getting older when two people younger than I am, get to retire before I do. I know I'm getting older, when I see Care Bears at an antique shop with a price tag that says "Vintage Collectable Care Bear"... |
drama is no longer an option
|
You know you're getting older when it takes 2 people to clip your toenails.
|
When you enjoy an evening out dancing and the knees take a few days to recover.
Thank goodness, Christmas parties only happen once a year...lol |

You know you're getting really old when...
...you get less and less grumpy commensurately with how much less you give a crap about what other folks think, do or say.
|
when you think you can stay up past midnight, and then wake up in the morning with a hangover feeling.
when you turn on the radio, and think everything is CRAP, until you reach the "classic" station, and jam out. |
