Howdy!

   Here I am, minding everyone else's business (my job, you know) and I realizeth I am tired..that tired and really really wanting to go back home and go to sleep tired.

   It seems like I 'used to could'...but, I'm not as young as I used to be...I slept a lot Saturday, maybe four hours this morning, I should be good til tomorrow! :)

   Gotta go..nursing home service.

You either get older, or you don't. ;)
If you don't get older, you aren't alive anymore.  :hypocrite:

Newbie needs a lesson.. he said tomorrow makes a year hes worked here, and so his rookie status ends.. and he's a veteran of one year, now.. I choked.. he then came back in a minute, said he started to late in his career to make it 40 years, like I had....

Hmmm....

Newbie needs a lesson.........

You know you're getting older...

- When your friends compliment you on your new alligator shoes and you're barefoot.

- When your doctor doesn't give you x-rays anymore but just holds you up to the light.

- When you remember when the Dead Sea was only sick.

- When you don't care where your spouse goes, just as long as you don't have to go along.

- You and your teeth don't sleep together.

- Your back goes out, but you stay home.

- You wake up, looking like your driver's license picture.

- It takes two tries to get up from the couch.

- Your idea of a night out is sitting on the patio.

Have you slapped that one dude from Indiana with a pie in the face today?

  We spend our lives on the run: we get up by the clock, eat and sleep by the clock, get up again, go to work - and then we retire. And what do they give us? A clock.

I refuse to admit I'm more than fifty-two, even if that does make my sons illegitimate.

The secret of staying young is to live honestly, eat slowly, and lie about your age.

That's the way I feel. When I look in the mirror, I'm shocked. I don't feel any different than when I was 21 the first time.

This is what I think about getting older...

Young at heart. Slightly older in other places.

Over what hill? Where? When? I don't remember any hill.

One good thing about Alzheimers is you get to meet new people everyday.

Brain cells come and brain cells go, but fat cells live forever.

Ever stop to think and forget to start again?

It's hard to make a comeback when you haven't been anywhere.

It is bad to suppress laughter; it goes back down to your hips.

Forget health food. I need all the preservatives I can get.

Adults are just kids who owe money.

Last night I lay in bed looking up at the stars in the sky, and I thought to myself, "Where is the ceiling."

I intend to live forever--so far so good.

I only remember important things, whatever they were.

Don't hate yourself in the morning--sleep till noon.

I started out with nothing and I still have most of it left.
