How do you know when you are getting older? - Page 8

princessbelle · 03-02-2011, 09:00 AM

When you can remember getting the game "Operation" for Christmas.

When at least one of your proms was in the theme of "Disco"

When you watch "That 70s Show" and say stuff like...."Omg i had that hairstyle or OMG wore that shirt or skirt".

If you can remember watching "The 10,000 Dollar Pyramid".

When you were one of the first to see "Star Wars"....the FIRST one.

If you can remember when the "Exercist" came out and all the drama about people getting sick during the movie.

If you can remember when Evil Knievel jumped Snake River Canyon.

When man landing on the moon happened in your lifetime.

~ when you remember shopping at Woolworth's, Zayre's, and Gladdings

~ when you remember using a push mower to cut the lawn - gawd I loved that thing!

~ when you remember reel to reel home movies

~ when you stuck baseball cards to the spokes of your bike with clothespins to simulate a motor sound

~ when you MADE skateboards out of detachable skates and a piece of wood

~ when chokers were a fashion statement not a lifestyle indicator

rlin · 03-02-2011, 10:18 AM

when... upon remembering all the times that you thought that you couldnt wait to be old you understand what a dumbass you were then...

girl_dee · 03-02-2011, 12:11 PM

You have no idea what your natural hair color is

You remember people smoking in restaurants

You put clipped a card with a clothespin onto your bike to hear the spokes hit it.

When I hit 30 I felt old ... what did I know?

suebee · 03-02-2011, 02:16 PM

When your arm isn't long enough to read the newspaper anymore.

rlin · 03-02-2011, 02:44 PM

when need vs effort becomes a science...

OS Butch · 03-02-2011, 03:04 PM

You know you are getting old when you need to make a run to the store for mom and you sister's car blocks yours. So, you take hers....run in buy the items and then can't find your car..... 5 minutes into searching...Oh, looking for the wrong car...

The older I grow
The more I recall
How little I knew
when I knew it all.

WILDCAT · 03-02-2011, 03:41 PM

... when I can't find that one "THREAD", on "how to find threads"(?)

__

... when I finally really "get" what

means!

You know you're getting older when...

...no one has to remind you that paying bills comes before luxuries

...that retirement savings and college funds for the kids are near the top of the list

...you buy Benefiber in the jumbo size

...you own, and use, a pillbox with a compartment for each day of the week

Luv · 03-02-2011, 09:04 PM

When you...

Keep getting AARP information in the mai l

When u also recieve stuff from the Scooter Store

When your email spam includes a Senior dating site

Rockinonahigh · 03-02-2011, 09:34 PM

You Know when u r geting older when:
You swear you can hear your knees squeek.
Remember the show Howdy Doody.
Try to explane the bay of pigs thing with Cuba to someone who never herd of it.
remember watching old LonChainy movies.
When U hear a dowop song on the radio and get excited.

Guy · 03-02-2011, 09:48 PM

it takes longer to rest than it did to get tired

when all you want for your birthday is not to be reminded of your age

when your address book has mostly names that start with Dr.

you give up all your bad habits and you still don't feel good.

OS Butch · 03-03-2011, 06:53 AM

You know you are getting old....

When you add Kegel exercises to your daily routine.

justkim · 03-03-2011, 06:58 AM

You know your getting older when...

Shoot, now I can't remember...

OS Butch · 03-04-2011, 01:25 PM

You know you are getting older when...

You put something in the microwave to reheat it....you find it the next day, still in the mircowave.
