12 commandents for Seniors

#1 - Talk to yourself. There are times you need expert advice.
#2 - “In Style” are the clothes that still fit.
#3 - You don't need anger management. You need people to stop pissing you off.
#4 - Your people skills are just fine. It's your tolerance for idiots that needs work.
#5 - The biggest lie you tell yourself is, “I don't need to write that down. I'll remember it.”
#6 - “On time” is when you get there.
#7 - Even duct tape can't fix stupid, but it sure does muffle the sound.
#8 - Lately, you've noticed people your age are so much older than you.
#9 - Growing old should have taken longer.
#10 - Aging has slowed you down, but it hasn't shut you up.
#11 - You still haven't learned to act your age and hope you never will.
#12 - “One for the road” means peeing before you leave the house!

Superb! Star! Flag!

You can tell from my Avatar I go with rule #2

Also at my age I worry more about my heart or cancer which has a much larger chance of killing me than "the" virus. Besides everyone dies, I will too, and probably not too soon for many on ATS.

#4 - Your people skills are just fine. It's your tolerance for idiots that needs work.

I just LOVE #4! But I insist that this so called "tolerance" does not need "work". You can't expect people to "enjoy' being swarmed by mosquitoes!

LOL
Obviously whomever wrote that, met my husband.

I never talk to myself outloud. I talk to the cats, spiders, flies, fruit flies, moths, microbes in the rug and on the couch, and the faucets when they drip. I swear at the car when I am working on it if things don't go right too. If I am dementiated, so is the wife, because she talks to the plants too. She bitches at a fly that lands on her food and tries to tell it to get the hell away or she will kill it. At least I don't act homicidal to bugs.

I was forced to grow up when I hit sixty five and officially became a senior Citizen all over. That was almost a year ago, being an adult kind of sucks.

Mostly I hang out at the senior's center with jars of linament and werthers waiting for tantric yoga class or bingo. They're both a little much!
