Over 50 Introduce Yourself

[KarenB59]

A teacher I work with asked one of the students how old he thought she was.
"500" he replied.
"How old do you think I am?" I asked him
"21" he said
"Love you kid."

OK, I just turned sixty in November. You need to stop sayin' stuff like that. It's really uncomfortable to those of us who appreciate your absolutely filthy, creative mind!

You're as old as you think you are. Some days I still feel forty. Some days I feel old as dirt.

Fuck the clock! Fuck the calendar! Fu- Ah my back!

That phrase, 'you're as old as you think you are' is a bunch of BS. You're as old as the number of years you've lived. Some days you get up and everything works....for a minute or two. Other days nothing works. I'm just glad I'm not incontinent. Speaking of incontinent, I spent 5 weeks in a SNF last year. One night, a CNA woke me up to check to see if I was dry. I was not kind to her, plus I reported her the next day because she'd failed to check my records.

The sex is still good, so I'm happy.

Okay, point made. I will admit to more sick days in the last eighteen months than in the previous 32 years, so I guess you're right.

Glad you reported that CNA. You may just have saved her career.

Glad the sex is good. Something to look forward to.

You can always find something to be grateful for. Sometimes it's just laughing and not shitting your pants. (which I've never done)

Evening everyone.

 

[beachbaby179]

Welcome to the weekend!

 

[starrynightin64]

hello Monday

 

[TheOnlyOneLeft4You]

Monday almost be gone.....

 

[darkelf9]

Hey it's Tuesday where I am.

Had a good Monday, no major issues from the latest eye test and got my watch fixed in record time, all before 11 am.

Was told by the eye doctor that I have what they refer to as "a floater". Then she went on to describe it which sounded worse that saying "floater". Apparently common for people my age. I'm learning a lot about getting old, by getting old. No prep for that. I'm just getting used to medical people beginning sentences with "people your age...."

Have pain in different parts of my body, mainly because I'm doing tasks around the house which I normally don't do. Another month or two before the cooler weather comes a calling so can go into hibernation then.

I wonder at times if doctors realise people eventually die. Lets just enjoy stuff as we get older rather than gathering more rules around what we should do.

AARP keeps sending me junkmail!

AARP keeps sending me junkmail!

It gets worse after you join. I was getting something in the mail two or three times a week as well as emails. Finally I got out and marked their emails as spam. Relief!

Thanks for the heads up. I'll be sure to keep tossing them in the recycle bin.

Good evening all. DD says we're cool. That's good enough for me. DO we tell the uncool kids, or just sit at our table and be cool?

I am in BC and it was 21 C today.

 

[Dejah_thoris_of_Mars]

I turn 48 next month. Am I allowed to just loiter near the cool kids table? Is there an adolescence period after middle age? Because I feel like that's what I have entered.

 

[TANSTAAFL58]

If you want to round up, I don't think anyone will object. Will you take Jordan's AARP mail?
