GETTING OLDER A distraught senior citizen phoned her doctors office. Is it true, she wanted to know, that the medication you prescribed has to be taken for the rest of my life? Yes, Im afraid so, the doctor told her. There was a moment of silence before the senior lady replied, Im wondering, then, just how serious is my condition because this prescription is marked NO REFILLS.. *********************** An older gentleman was on the operating table awaiting surgery and he insisted that his son, a renowned surgeon, perform the operation. As he was about to get the anesthesia, he asked to speak to his son. Yes, Dad , what is it? Dont be nervous, son; do your best, and just remember, if it doesnt go well, if something happens to me, your mother is going to come and live with you and your wife.... (I LOVE IT!) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Aging: Eventually you will reach a point when you stop lying about your age and start bragging about it. This is so true. I love to hear them say you dont look that old. --------------------------------- The older we get, the fewer things seem worth waiting in line for. (Mostly because we forgot why we were waiting in line in the first place!!) --------------------------------- Some people try to turn back their odometers. Not me! I want people to know why I look this way. Ive traveled a long way and some of the roads werent paved. ******************** When you are dissatisfied and would like to go back to youth, think of Algebra. ------------------------------- One of the many things no one tells you about aging is that it is such a nice change from being young. ~~~~~~~~~~~ Ah, being young is beautiful, but being old is comfortable. ********* (And this final one especially for me,) Lord, keep Your arm around my shoulder and Your hand over my mouth! Now, if you feel this doesnt apply to you . . . stick around awhile . . . it will!
