How do you know when you are getting older?

You know you are getting old when you get up to get something in another room and you get there and you don't remember what you where getting.....and this happens more than once for the same thing.

You know you are getting older when you are searching for your glasses all over the house and they are right on your face.

You know you're getting old when quite a few of your human parts have been replaced with mechanical parts!

You know you are getting older:

* when you see/read your friends listed in the obit section of the newspaper;

* the thought of de-decorating for any holiday seems like a nightmare;

* you buy large print books;

* you forgot about the clothes you just washed, and have to rewash them;

* you look for sales on hemoroid creams, wipes, fiber powders, and such.

one sign that tells you that ur getting older is,repeating yourself---sooooooo keep that in mind while reading this post

you know you are getting older when

...you echo phrases your parents used,even though you swore you would never do
...you cant control your as well as you used to
...you have to have the close caption on the tv so you can"hear"it
...your kid is listening to a song you really liked in your younger yrs,you mention it and he says" oh i thought it was original"
...you check your height and realize you are shrinking
...it seems EVERYONE is calling you ma'am--even the elderly greeters at WalMart
