- In a hostage situation, you are likely to be released first.
- No one expects you to run. Anywhere.
- People call at 9 (a.m. or p.m.) and ask, ’Did I wake you?’
- People no longer view you as a hypochondriac.
- There is nothing left to learn the hard way.
- Things you buy now won’t wear out.
- You can eat supper at 4p.m.
- You can live without sex (but not your glasses).
- You get into heated arguments about pension plans.
- You no longer think of speed limits as a challenge.
- You quit trying to hold your stomach in, no matter who walks into the room.
- You sing along with elevator music.
- Your eyes won’t get much worse.
- Your investment in health insurance is finally beginning to pay off.
- Your joints are more accurate meteorologists than the national weather service.
- Your secrets are safe with your friends because they can’t remember them either.
- Your supply of brain cells is finally down to a manageable size.
- You won’t remember who sent you this list.
ONE IMPORTANT THING:
NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night.


















Pinned you again. http://pinterest.com/pin/147141112796558328/ Keep them coming.
Thank you again, Katherine. I always appreciate it.

RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF READING THIS, I THOUGHT, “THIS IS REALLY CUTE — I SHOULD FORWARD IT TO TILLY.” (!)
Haha! It was bound to happen one day
oh these are so true. loved that last statement!!! lol
LOL!
Cool! you are a twit! But to be honest most of them are right!
They are just around the corner for me…
d’accord for most of these. It’s too late to worry about pension plans and health insurance!
NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night. Good idea!
As a very old Swede I can really confirm the advantage of being old (big laugh)!!
Most of the points comfirmed
Oh dear!

Or should that be,
?
you just described my life.
Maybe it’s because I’m over 60 that I didn’t get this one *laughing
LOL! Good one Tilly—I’m not 60 yet, but some already apply; guess i am a leader and over-achiever, right?
LOL !! That’s so funny and sad but true, but none of this will happen to me ! For I’m a toy’s R us kid and I’ll never grow up!!…..much..sorta…kinda…but still…..okay I need to go take my medication again
Where’s your carer?
Very cute lines.
Your birthday post is not working. However:
HAPPY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DEAREST TILLY!
We love you and hope you get really, really OLD! Someday.
Thank you Katherine, though your good wishes are a little early. See today’s post for my apology
Well, I still hope you grow really old some day!
Before I do, if you can.
OK, now…I’m not sure now. You have targeted my very own number…60! I’d take you on, but I’m too tired! Debra
I almost started at fifty, but that’s not old any more, they say. Tell it to my bones
Phew…I won’t be a hostage for long.
I’m trying to decide whether it’s scary or depressing that I do many of the things on this list.
I forwarded this to 4 people! Thank you!
No! Thank YOU!
