What made you feel old today?

What made you feel old today? For me, it was some old photos that my grandma found of me next to the tree in my backyard. That old maple tree was MUCH smaller when I was a kid!

All the stretching and preparation of my body I had to do prior to my morning bike ride. It's getting more and more difficult the older I get.

I had my first colonoscopy today.

Just got diagnosed with a hernia that's been bugging me all summer playing golf -so I'll get that fixed up this winter.

We just got back from Scotland, took my folks. My folks are very active - mentally & physically for late 70's - but damn I realized they are indeed getting older and I'm so glad we can still take these active trips with them and they are still up for it and enjoy traveling.

That you still have grandparents. Mine would be like 130 if still alive.

THIS.....makes me feel old. I have my next, and last colonoscopy in 5 years. I will have aged out because I will be 73 then..
I was feeling young the past two weeks as we were on a Princess Cruise and Land Tour. We were 10 years younger than about half our group.

Besides respraining my ankle for the third time in 22 months...simply by walking? (The second time I did it in Disney World on my birthday - so at least it was a good story!) Propped up and waiting for swelling to subside and will call my doctor tomorrow, not that they can do too much for it. On the other hand, I had time to read the news and found out that Rush is doing a reunion tour - my brother (14 years older than me... so he's 62) has always been a huge fan of them - so I got to share that news with him...and he told me I made him feel old!

Had some pain in my knees

When my eye DR told me my eyes are aging very nicely. Now if my lung DR could get on board with her.....that would be awesome!!

What made you feel old today?

Same answer everyday…..the mirror.
I keep forgetting to take off my glasses when I look at that thing.

Filling in an online form and it had one of those birth year wheels, and I kept spinning and spinning and spinning…. Now I may need an urgent care visit for the resulting finger pain!

Two days ago I found some wrinkles on my forehead that I swear weren't there 2 weeks ago! Mostly, though, I'm tired when I get home from work. I just need to take a break for about a half hour before I think about tackling supper... and forget about doing any chores or anything AFTER supper.

I was teaching about the 2nd industrial revolution and was comparing the era to the impact that the internet had on American society in the mid-1990s to 2000s.

I suddenly realized my 8th graders have never known the world without the internet, wi-fi, cell phones, social media, etc.

Haha! I thought I was the only one bothered by that

 

[PollyannaMom]

We were watching TV earlier and an ad came on for a new show. - One of the young people said they had seen it and that "the guy who played the Hulk" was in it. I told her I was so old that meant Lou Ferrigno to me.

reading the prom thread and realizing that the 'kids' that were conceived the night of my senior prom would all be turning 45 this year (yup, every year there were always a few newborns at the local hospital born almost 9 months to the date of the prior year's prom).
