when you walk into a room, forget why you are there...and repeating until you truly believe you're having dejavue.. because you don't remember going in to the room to begin with

Yeah..........I can relate to this very much. LOL Mind boggling sometimes.

Or you lay something down so you won't forget where you put it and then you need to get it and end up having to look all over the place because you forgot where you put it so you wouldn't forget that. lmao The wheels on the bus go round and round LOL

When i stand up, and most of the bones in my body crack and groan.

When my daughter has to open the jar of pickles.

When i go grocery shopping and need to lean on the shopping cart.

When that cute grocery bagger calls me ma'am, and asks if i need help to the car.

Im getting older because it takes me 10min. To roll over in bed..
20min. To get out of bed...another 5min. To talk myself into walking down the stairs... And dont forget 10mun. Just popping & ceacking with every step... Yeppers im getting older alright...

I know im getting older because I paid the same price for 2 trailer tires today that I paid for 4 truck tires back in the late '80's

I know I'm getting older cause 8 1/2 yrs ago I popped discs out in my lower back and now I"m having surgery done for it. :praying:

When I start thinking convertible over motorcycle. :thinking:

When you are looking up symptoms of Menopause.

a slight few
 

you wake up really early

things you didn't know you have start to ache

you go to turn the TV on with your cell phone

you call someone "honey" and they say you are dating yourself.

When you know that it matters not.

Out for a glass of wine the other night, I was so surprised at how young a pair of girls at a nearby table appeared and that they were evidently old enough to order alcohol. I'm using "girls" because that's truly what they looked like to me. I think I would have been less shocked if someone had said they were 15.

The car ahead of me at a stoplight yesterday bore a bumper sticker which read, "I may be old, but I got to see all the cool bands." It made me smile, and then start ticking off in my head all the cool bands I'd seen over the years. My concert going started around 1978. I graduated from high school in 1980. I've seen some weird stuff, man.

When it takes you 30 minutes to wake up and get out of bed. Then everything goes snap crackle pop Lol

as you grow wiser you realize somethings need to be said, and you will say them

You know who is real and who is not!

lol, you know you're getting older when....
 

...you start finding random, wild, stray hairs sticking out of the most peculiar [and often formerly hairless] places and you marvel at how long they are because there definitely wasn't any hair there yesterday!

:|

You say things that you normally would not say, to someone about something.

you wake up feeling like the morning after and you haven't been anywhere

You answer a question with "because I said so"

And you're talking to your mother. :blink:

When your sunscreen number goes up! It's now a necessity!

a rainy evening at home with tea feels amazing

If I have a busy weekend with things to attend I give a resigned sigh rather than a whoop for joy !

When you lie awake at night due to pain and need to rub cream on joints that smells like it should be used to open your sinuses.

A couple ways...

1)

When you fill out a form and you have to scroll through the year of your birth? Yeah...it keeps getting further and further away....

and

2)

I find old coins or cash and think "ohh wow! Look how OLD that is!" And it's my age...or less...

When you go to the podiatrist for the first time. :(

Wow.
 

When you put dinner in the oven for what is supposed to be 15 minutes and over ninety minutes later you realize it must be getting a little crispy by now - except you can't smell anything.

So you go check on the progress of your frozen culinary delight only to discover that you never turned on the oven.

And I'm half-starved today, too.

:seeingstars:

Yup; I'm gonna be a ward of the state soon, lol.

When people make a showing and or appearance after you show active again from being gone a month!

I am taking a one day course at the local community college today on "Maximizing your Social Security".:glasses:

I think it's not necessarily related to age but cognizance of our ability to grow, mature, things of that kind of nature.

As I have grown and matured in life, I have found that I do not tolerate, or have zero tolerance for, emotional manipulation and lying (not being truthful).

But you've stopped eating with rubber spatulas, right?! That has to count for something. :giggle:

When I keep forgetting to buy milk EVERY TIME I PLAN ON MAKING MASHED POTATOES....and when I get to the store again, I forget what I went for.

When you walk into a room and forget what you were looking for and then an hour later it hits you so you search for it and then forget again what you were looking for in the first place. lmao

When doctors start saying "at your age" and start scheduling you for tests that you always related to "old people"....

"wait..you want what done?"

When you can't remember how old you are, and doing the math is hard, too. :bow:

At least two days a week, I come home and doze on the couch after work...

This from the girl who has never napped in HER LIFE...

Sigh

You make a post on the forums and twenty minutes later post the same dang thing!! Lol!!
