What's it like "being old"?

[StillStanding]

I stopped growing at the top and bottom, and started growing in the middle!

Since I don't consider myself old I would not know.

If you can relate to these...you're old!

1. You and your teeth don't sleep together.

2. Your try to straighten out the wrinkles in your socks and discover you aren't wearing any.

3. At the breakfast table you hear snap, crackle, pop and you're not eating cereal.

4. Your back goes out but you stay home.

5. When you wake up looking like your driver's license picture.

6. It takes two tries to get up from the couch.

7. When your idea of a night out is sitting on the patio.

8. When happy hour is a nap.

9. When you're on vacation and your ENERGY runs out before your money does.

12. When all you want for your birthday is to not be reminded of your age.

13. When you step off a curb and look down one more time to make sure the street is still there.

14. Your idea of weight lifting is standing up.

15. It takes longer to rest than it did to get tired.

16. Your memory is shorter and your complaining lasts longer.

17. Your address book has mostly names that start with Dr.

18. You sit in a rocking chair and can't get it going.

19. The pharmacist has become your new best friend.

20. It takes twice as long - to look half as good.

21. Everything hurts, and what doesn't hurt - doesn't work.

22. You look for your glasses for half an hour and they were on your head the whole time.

23. You sink your teeth into a steak and they stay there.

24. You give up all your bad habits and still don't feel good.

25. You have more patience, but it is actually that you just don't care anymore.

26. You finally get your head together and your body starts falling apart.

27. You wonder how you could be over the hill when you don't even remember being on top of it.

I will be 68 come Sept. 18th. Surely I will began to feel old one

of these years, but so far I haven't!! As a man/woman thinketh

in his/her heart, so is he.

The wonderful thing is that as this outward man/woman perishes,

the inner man/woman is being renewed day by day. What's growing

on the inside will come to term one of these days and the old outer

shell will be buried in the ground. The undertakers will have gotten

the blood, because flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of

God. My plans are to just let God be God. He will wind this whole

thing up in righteousness one of these days.

Blessings,
