The Joys? Of Getting Older

[Sis]

If all is not lost, where is it?

It is easier to get older than it is to get wiser.

The first rule of holes:  If you are in one, stop digging.

The only time the world beats a path to your door is if you're in the bathroom.

It's not hard to meet expenses ... they're everywhere.

Ayy, but when you are older and don't want to do something, people think you just forgot.

someone said they thought I was in my 30's yesterday, I loved it.  It's so wonderful to not be mistaken for a teenager...lol

Well, above your avatar, it says you're over 40.

[Melody]

hmm... I don't know what that's about.  I'm 28.

[The Purple Fuzzy]

I'm just teasing you.   It has to do with post count, I believe.

[Brother Dad]

I got a senior citizen discount yesterday.

[Sis]

I got one when I was in my 30's. The funny part of it is, I always looked younger than I was, not older.  I think someone needed to change their glasses prescription.

[Brother Dad]

I didn't mind.  Of course woman take it a little harder than guys.

[The Purple Fuzzy]

Some guys take it pretty hard. I've heard some fuss about getting a discount. 

[Sis]

All women don't think the same.  I was when it happened.

[Brother Dad]

I like discount.

[RainbowJingles]

My dad told me yesterday about the manager at a restaurant giving him the kids price.  lol  His brother is a recent retiree (and younger than Dad) and got the senior discount.  Dad is barely a senior (actually he's only 63)!  lol

Maybe the cashier who gave you the discount just thought you were nice, Sis.  lol

[Sis]

Donno. Just thought it was a kick! 

[BeccaBoo]

My mom always get asked if she wants the discount and she is only 54...

[Sis]

My mom always get asked if she wants the discount and she is only 54...

Tell her to grin and say, "I didn't know you gave student discounts. I don't have my ID with me." 

[BeccaBoo]

I told her...

She laughed!!

[Brother Dad]

The non joy is my knees hurt on cold nights.

[Sis]

Well, water drinking should help to cushion them.

[Brother Dad]

I will keep drinking the water and see if it will help.

[The Purple Fuzzy]

The non joy is my knees hurt on cold nights.

I can relate to the knees hurting, but mine don't just wait for cold nights.  Some days I have trouble climbing the stairs and other days they are just fine. 

[MelodyB]

Me too...but mine is from a three letter word called F A T.

[The Purple Fuzzy]

Shhh, that's not a nice word.
