I know I am getting old because I FORGET what I was doing when I go to answer my Front Door. Now I take something with me like a dish cloth (washing dishes) as I head to door.

Lol, I have totally FORGOTTEN I was "cooking" something in my microwave & discover item when I go to use it AGAIN. 😂

The same with phone. With that I take phone BACK TO WHERE I was when it rang. This way there is NO forgetting that time. 👍

Take care,

When I hear or see someone speeding down the road weaving in and out of lanes, I cringe and hope everyone in their path is safe, including the person doing the speeding.

Done with this "new" and "improved"... kinda like dotard improved America...

Hi Nicole 😸😁

I know I am getting old because....

I hate "auto-correct" when it insists!!!... & I’m in a hurry to get my text sent... & especially if I miss what it changed before I sent it...as we know...once 'sent' ...

it’s there....forever!! LOL!!🤣

Anyway... Take care! ☮️🛶🏖~Allen 🌈 🏝 ⛵

Getting "Old isn't for Sissies"...Your mind is still young but your body starts to give up on you...Do it now while you can....Say the things you want to say before it's too late....

📎 (8/31/23) Hi @s804940b , so good to hear from you!

I never had close friends as all my life I moved around. And never been a Facebook fan - too much drama. 🙄

What I am MISSING of late is my "childhood" with my grandparents.

I would kill to have them in my life at "soon-to-be" 65.

Sucks getting old = losing folks we care about. 😥

I do the same thing. I like to sleep when I feel like it and not just because it is a certain hour of the day. Also, I am getting old because all of my closest family members and best friends have died. Starting over in your mid sixties is difficult.✏

I do understand that. I only had one grandparent and she died when I was 7. She was very loving. Two of the others died when my parents were teenagers and the fourth was just mean and never acted like a grandparent.

📎 (8/31/23) Hi @s804940b , it is so "unforgivable" when a grandparent is TOXIC.

My only child is dealing with one I have AVOIDED since she turned 18 = she went away to college, told her and her "wimp" (scared of her 🙄) of a husband they can go visit her on campus.

18 years of H.LL finally ended. 💃💃💃

I know I am getting old because I have to leave a reminder note in front of my microwave. Lol, a reminder that I am cooking/heating up stuff. 😁🤣 Before using a note, stuff would stay in microwave until I used it again. 🙄

I know I am getting old because I sat down today to drink my first cup of Hazelnut cafè (my fav) and wondered why it tasted off. 😤 Lol, when I finished drinking it and returned to my kitchen, guess what was still sitting on the counter? My sweetener! 🤣😂 Got to luv those senior moments. 🙄
