[Humour] How you know you’re getting old.

[Questions]

For me it’s the realisation that I don’t have to delete my search history on my IPad every other day.

Deciding I need to do/find something around the house and then forgetting what it is when I arrive in the room I need to do it/find it in. Retracing my steps to where I started to be able to remember is a worry, but it normally works. I like to think it’s because I’ve got so much on my mind...it’s not!

Telling someone a joke that I have already told them a few days/weeks ago. That would never have happened when I was young!

After a mildly strenuous activity the day before, the next morning you feel like you've done a marathon and Iron Man the day before and everything is creaky and aches.

My life has improved immeasurably since I started turning the subtitles on the TV. I just wish I could do it with people as well.

You make involuntary noises when sitting down and standing up (primarily still from the vocal areas, thank god !)

 

[happypig]

You get to the holiday accommodation, see that everyone else round the pool is 60+ and think "Oh good, should be peaceful" (but also think "best not mention Brexit")

All the above and just looking in the mirror.
Wow, who is that old git looking at me!
