  • Getting Older

    Just before the funeral services, the undertaker came up to the very elderly widow and asked,
    'How old was your husband?'
    '98,' she replied, 'Two years older than me'
    'So you're 96,' the undertaker commented.
    She responded , 'Hardly worth going home, is it?


    Reporter interviewing a 104-year-old woman:
    'And what do you think is the best thing about being 104?' the reporter asked.
    She simply replied, 'No peer pressure.'


    The nice thing about being senile is You can hide your own Easter eggs.


    I've sure gotten old! I've had two bypass surgeries, a hip replacement,
    New knees, fought prostate cancer and diabetes
    I'm half blind,
    Can't hear anything quieter than a jet engine,
    Take 40 different medications that
    Make me dizzy, winded, and subject to blackouts.
    Have bouts with dementia ...
    Have poor circulation;
    Hardly feel my hands and feet anymore.
    Can't remember if I'm 89 or 98.
    Have lost all my friends. But, thank God,
    I still have my driver's license.


    I feel like my body has gotten totally out of shape,
    So I got my doctor's permission to
    Join a fitness club and start exercising.
    I decided to take an aerobics class for seniors.
    I bent, twisted, gyrated, jumped up and down, and perspired for an hour. But,
    By the time I got my leotards on, The class was over.


    My memory's not as sharp as it used to be. Also, my memory's not as sharp as it used to be.


    Know how to prevent sagging? Just eat till the wrinkles fill out.


    It's scary when you start making the same noises As your coffee maker..


    These days about half the stuff In my shopping cart says,
    'For fast relief.'


    THE SENILITY PRAYER :Grant me the senility to forget the people
    I never liked anyway,
    The good fortune to run into the ones I do, and
    The eyesight to tell the difference.


    Now, I think you're supposed to share this with 5 or 6, maybe 10 others. Oh heck, give it to a bunch of your friends if you can remember who they are!


    Always Remember This:
    You don't stop laughing because you grow old, You grow old because you stop laughing!!!

            You don't stop laughing because you grow old, You grow old because you stop laughing. Many things cause you to stop laughing.

            Becoming senile may have advantages, few of which are funny. You don't realize what they are.

            Getting old is not funny at all with regards to health problems! Ask those who have under gone a bypass, a hip or knee replacement, fought cancer of any kind.

            The rituals of being diabetic are not fun at all.

            Are you losing your sight? Have trouble hearing? Real fun stuff!

            I take several different medications, without which I get dizzy and/or very ill.

            I wrap my legs each night due to poor circulation.

            I remember I'm nearly 72, can't imagine 92.

            I try to make new friends faster than I lose them.

            My body has gotten totally in shape. Round is a shape!

            My memory's not as sharp as it used to be. Also, my memory's not as sharp as it used to be. I like that one.


            Making the same noises as the coffee maker, isn't scary anymore. Have gotten pretty used to it.
            I like the smell of coffee brewing!

            -----------------------------------
            I'm laughing and don't know why!

              All of this brings up this question;

              How old are you before it can be said you died of old age?



              Carol and the rest of you, I'm trying to be a bit humorous here also.

              Carol, thanks for the posting.
