You know you are older when you are playing the arcade game way past your bedtime, but you do it anyway and suffer the consequences in the morning.

When waxing your car takes 2 days and they might not be consecutive ones either. :blink:

when your not a Cub fan anymore?

When those pedals don't spin around as easily as they used to!

When even a pot coffee doesn't seem to get ya going:blink:

When you have to increase the font size...again to be able to read...even with your glasses on...sheez!

When you remember the first year "On Our Backs" magazine,. Still brings a smile to my lips...:thumbsup:

When your co-workers invite you to their kids skating rink party and you start to find every excuse in the book because you don't want to break your leg!

When the AARP starts sending you weekly invites. :bandana:

When staying up all night is an effort not an adventure!

I know I am getting older when I change the way I make decisions. Used to be a long drawn out process of evaluating all the options, figuring the pros and cons and weighing them all, asking confidantes for input, then mulling it all over some more.

Now, it is a simpler process. Wish I could chalk it up to something esoteric and wise. But, it is just necessity. Too much thinking wastes too much precious energy. And, at this age, getting lost in thought literally means forgetting what you were supposed to be mulling over.

The best part of this change in process comes with a change in attitude. A bad decision is no longer the end of the world. It's just a booboo.

You know you’re getting old when all the names in your black book have M. D. after them. - Harrison Ford

I don't recall you saying "damn" at all.... but you did say just about every other thing that would make your Nanny faint!! Everything happens for a reason...I happened to be there and happened to have cash :frog: ....the funny part came after you fueled up, after we got lunch and loaded up with groceries...on the way out of the parking lot, you grabbed my sunglasses from the cubby and said "Shit! What'd I do with my glasses?...[how many times have I heard that one in the last 3 years? my first reaction was to look over at the collar of your shirt and on top your baseball cap...].... my response: did you leave them in the store? ...You, with a total disgusted look on your face : "I might have." .... after a few seconds my response: pointing to your dash, 1.5 feet from your nose... :huhlaugh::superfunny: :sunglass:

When you're old enough to remember these....

and when you mention them to the newer generation, they have no clue what a "Wheat Back" is and they ask if it was a cereal or foreign money?
