Those little aches and pains have become screams of agony, and don't go away in a matter of minutes, if ever. When your best day was yesterday.
When you think your bladder is empty only to discover your error. When in the morning you use to open your eyes wide, but now are crusted and tearful.

Oh the joys of getting older.

All tongue in cheek, except when you can't find your teeth, or glasses, or cane.

4 or 5 different kinds of fat, calories from fat, sodium etc etc etc

ya know you are getting older when you have 300 channels and nothing is on TV so you contemplate just going back to the ole 3 channel TV and throwing away the remote so you can get up to change the channels.....just for the exercise

I know I'm getting older...when my doctor, my dentist and my boss are all younger than I am.
