I'M A SENIOR CITIZEN
from: In Honor of Older Americans...Author Unknown
~~I'm the life of the party...even when it lasts 'till 8 pm.
~~I'm very good at opening childproof caps with a hammer.
~~I'm usually interested in going home before I get to where I'm
going.
~~I'm good on a trip for at least an hour without my aspirin,
antacid....
~~I'm the first one to find the bathroom wherever I go
~~I'm awake many hours before my body allows me to get up
~~I'm smiling all the time because I can't hear a word you're saying
~~I'm very good at telling stories...over and over and over and over
~~I'm aware that other people's grandchildren are not as bright as
mine
~~I'm so cared for: long-term care, eye care, private care, dental
care
~~I'm not grouchy, I just don't like traffic, waiting, children,
politicians...
~~I'm positive I did housework correctly before my mate retired
~~I'm sure everything I can't find is in a secure place
~~I'm wrinkled, saggy and lumpy, and that's just my left leg
~~I'm having trouble remembering simple words like....uh....
~~I'm now spending more time with my pillows than with my mate
~~I'm realizing that aging is not for sissies
~~I'm walking more (to the bathroom) and enjoying it less
~~I'm going to reveal what goes on behind the green doors...
~~I'm sure they are making adults much younger these days
~~I'm in the *initial* state of my golden years: SS, CD's, IRA's,
AARP
~~I'm wondering if you're only as old as you feel, how could I be
alive at
150?
~~I'm anti-everything now: anti-fat, anti-smoke, anti-noise, anti-
inflammatory
~~I'm supporting all movements now...by eating bran, prunes and
raisins
~~I'm a walking storeroom of facts...I've just lost the storeroom key
~~I'm a Senior Citizen and I think I am having the time of my life
~~Do I have Alzheimer's? I don't remember. But, I'm happy, I think.
:)
