You Know You Are Old When

That happened to me at TSC, but I had 50 and 80# sacks of feed. I swallowed my pride and graciously answered YES!
Older and wiser beats young and stupid.
The last time I bought grain at TSC it was (two) 50 lb bags, which I then tossed over my shoulder and headed out the door. In hindsight it was a dumb move which my back paid for, but what happened next made me feel even more stupid. I generally hold my hand out at arm's length because the automatic doors are so slow. This time I didn't and walked into the darned thing... with 100 lbs of grain on my shoulder. 😓

Yeah, being older doesn't mean you can't do it anymore and may even let you live longer with less pain.

Work smarter, not harder!

To us it was when the baseball players seem like kids.
The first time for me was when all of the girls at McDonald's looked too young (AKA jailbait). Now that's come around full circle. Many of them are close to my age again but serve as reminders why I don't eat there much- fat, toothless, and way too expensive for what I get.

Or when patients checking in for surgery seemed so old and now many are younger or one is a grade school or high school classmate and looks so old!

Or when you follow your parents and grandparents footsteps and watch the wheel and sometimes jeopardy every weeknight.

When I was 39 and my Dad was 65 when he came to visit me, I had 4 times more gray hair than him.

When 50 something and the Barber asked me if I wanted my eyebrows trimmed.
