Middle aged is when you choose your cereal for the fiber...and not the toy!

by teresa

You know you are getting old when...

1. At the breakfast table you hear snap, crackle, pop and you're not eating cereal.
2. Your back goes out but you stay home.
3. When you wake up looking like your driver's license picture.
4. It takes two tries to get up from the couch.
5. When your idea of a night out is sitting on the patio
6. When happy hour is a nap.
7. When you're on vacation and your ENERGY runs out before your money does.
8. Your idea of weight lifting is standing up.
9. It takes longer to rest than it did to get tired.
10. Getting "lucky" means you found your car in the parking lot.
11. The twinkle in your eye is merely a reflection from the sun on your bifocals.
12. It takes twice as long - to look half as good.
13. You look for your glasses for half an hour and they were on your head the whole time.
14. You have more patience, but it is actually that you just don't care anymore.
15. You wonder how you could be over the hill when you don't even remember being on top of it.

I can relate to that although I don't think I'm middle age anymore. I'm not quite a senior citizen yet either. I guess I'm in the Autumn of my life (hey...that's my favorite season!)
