You wake up early on mornings that you could sleep in. Not by choice.

You are losing hair on your head and gaining hair on your back and in your ears and nostrils.

When everything seems to take at least twice as long as it used to... and everyone else seems to move really fast...

When that little old lady you are helping cross the street ... is your wife.

When you have no life... and you're ok with that.
I must have gotten old before I was a kid. I have always been ok with not having a life. It's more peaceful, and peace is a rare commodity these days.

and then you ask hub to help you hunt for them...

People call at 9 p.m. and ask, "Did I wake you?"

You have too much room in the house and not enough in the medicine cabinet.

You have a party and the neighbors don't even realize it.

When you bend over, you look for something else to do while you're down there.

true story'

a couple of days ago, hub went down to the neighbors to feed their animals
while they're out of town and when he got back and was taking off his shoes,
one was a vel-crow tennis shoe and the other was a lace-up tennis shoe...

just waiting for the next bomb to fall!!! smiles and laughter ensued...

when you need a daily nap mid afternoon.

when kids use "snack", and you sit there wondering why it's not about food.
When I found out what snack meant, I told my students to tell boys “I’m not a snack, I’m a whole meal”. I think it is another way to treat girls as disposable, fun time toys and I don’t really like the terminology (my inner feminist is coming out in this post).

Maybe I’m just a grumpy, old lady.

...when you move a couple of heavy objects and you feel it in your shoulders, back and knees for the next week.

That's like when a woman refers to a man as her chew toy.

"You like my latest chew toy? I found him tonight on the dance floor."

Note to myself. Never call a future husband chewtoy. My dogs and I will all be confused.

I don’t think this is a “thing”. Get with the times, your “out of it” is showing.

You know you are getting old when you think all the stuff people are saying are new cool things to say and play along with it pretending to understand when you really have no clue. Or think of food as LaVieEnRose (without underscores) wrote.
