MysticOceansFL · 08-17-2011, 11:27 PM

Roller Coaster games and the people that play them aka Drama MaMa's

Greyson · 08-18-2011, 12:55 AM

wasting time.

Abigail Crabby · 08-18-2011, 04:34 AM

I thought about it some more......

There are some things I'm too old for.

Drama.

The all about me people.

People who only see what's in it for them.

Broken promises

I guess all the above = Drama

StillettoDoll · 08-18-2011, 05:08 AM

Smoking cigarettes which I just quit, learning ballet, mini shirts and short shorts, having children, junk food,
gymnastics .

Kobi · 08-18-2011, 05:51 AM

I am too old to tolerate the bullshit.

JustJo · 08-18-2011, 07:38 AM

A few things....

reading the small print without my glasses
hearing anything in spaces with lots of background noise, competing voices, or if you're just standing behind me
waitressing, bartending or anything else that involves long hours on my feet
jobs without vacations and benefits

MissPriss · 08-18-2011, 11:32 AM

Today was a very hard day at work so as of now my body feels way too old for job!! Also, my neice is trying her best to drag me to a party. Really? When Im all beat up with cracked ribs that are most likely in worse shape than they were on the initial break lol. This child wants me to go to a party full of twenty somethings.....She is an amazing soul thinkin her Auntie is just the coolest most IN thing ever. Gotta love her!

Red Dirt Girl · 08-18-2011, 05:36 PM

I feel too old to learn to surf.
I don't feel old enough to know that maybe I'm not.

JazzGirl · 08-25-2011, 10:19 AM

To parent to a full grown adult. I do not mean one of my own full grown adult children, that is different. Well, done differently, now.

For an instant relationship after three dates.

To not put myself first in a healthy, functional way always. I am surprised at how many do not do so, including me, before realizing it is the only way to be happy. I am not espousing selfish, dysfunctional response, I am saying self must be an important part of ANY relationship. Thank goodness for AlAnon.

bigbutchmistie · 08-25-2011, 07:45 PM

Venus007 · 08-19-2011, 06:43 PM

Ennui
Body shame

Contact sports. I do not think my nose could take another breaking or another deviated septum surgery.

Kenna · 01-08-2012, 05:36 AM

I am learning that I can no longer move furniture or lift appliances or do most kinds of tough work like I used to without "feeling the burn " for days. My muscles seem to produce too much of that "after exercise " acid that my old, Lupus ridden body can't process and flush out correctly. I really miss my younger, VERY ACTIVE, VERY STRONG, able years and body. I miss muscles that work and kidneys that process toxins correctly. BUT.... none of what I feel today can take away my feeling of accomplishment and contentment from yesterday. I feel good emotionally even if the old body can no longer keep up.
