You Know You Are Getting Old When . . .

[Wish Upon A Star]

You find yourself going to bed before your teen does.

Geeze I am getting old . . .

I know the feeling. Friday night we went out with some friends for dinner got home about 6:30 and I put on my PJ's and I mentioned to my dH that it seemed later than it was. His comment was that I obviously thought it was much later since I was ready for bed.

I'm turning into my parents!!

when your first pair of glasses are bifocals.

When your dd7 tucks you in for the night. Sometimes I am so tired that I tell my husband to put the kids to bed because I am going to sleep (8:30).

Geez, I just went for blood work and They couldn't find a vain! I go for an eye exam tomorrow DisneyObsessed So those bifocals may not be too far down the road!

your idea of sleeping in means 6:00 a.m.;

you go to bed by 9:00 p.m.;

your kids are watching SNL and you've been asleep for two or more hours already!

your children start to drive (actually that will just make you old before your time);

you hear yourself repeating the things you hated to hear from your parents when you were a teen;

70 seems awfully young;

you read the obits on a regular basis;

Saturday night is just another day of the week;

it takes you longer to get up off the floor than a toddler taking its first steps;

if your seated on the floor and you need to roll over onto your knees just to stand up;

when you get up in the morning it takes a couple trips down the hall just to wake up your aching muscles and joints;

you have all these kinds of complaints to write about on posts like this!

I could go on and on. . .this winter, I'm really feeling not as young as I used to!

...when the songs they play in the background at the supermarket are "really good"

when the music (classic rock) you listen to is considered "old people music" by your teen and his friends.
