1)Your kids are becoming you and your grandchildren are perfect!
2)Going out is good.. Coming home is better!
3)When people say you look "Great"... they add "for your age!"
4)When you needed the discount, you paid full price.
Now you get discounts on everything...
movies, hotels, flights, but you're too tired to use them.
5)You forget names .... but it's OK because other people have forgotten they even knew you!!!
6)You realize you're never going to be really good at anything .... especially golf.
7)The things you used to care to do, you no longer care to do, but you really do care that you don't care to do them anymore.
8)Remember when your mother said,
"Wear clean underwear in case you GET in an accident"?
Now you bring clean underwear in case you HAVE an accident!
9)You used to say, "I hope my kids GET married...
Now, "I hope they STAY married!"
10)You miss the days when everything worked with just an "ON" and "OFF" switch..
11)When GOOGLE, ipod, email, modem ....
were unheard of, and a mouse was something that made you climb on a table.
12)You used to be curious and used more 4 letter words ...
"what?"..."when?"... etc.
13)Now that you can afford expensive jewelry, it's not safe to wear it anywhere.
14)You read 100 pages into a book before you realize you've read it.
15)Notice everything they sell in stores is "sleeveless"?!!!
16)What used to be freckles are now liver spots.
17)Everybody whispers.
18)You have 3 sizes of clothes in your closet ...
two of which you will probably never wear again.
But old is good in some things:
old songs, old movies,
And best of all, OLD FRIENDS!!
It's Not What You Gather, But What You Scatter That Tells What Kind Of Life You Have Lived
