The Old Folks Home

[KnobbyOaks]

Sorry for you guys but I'm OLD in body and YOUNG in heart and spirit. Can't do anything about the body but I'll be danged if I'm going to have an old mind.

"None of us are old" - speak for yourself.

I had to look in the mirror this morning (I try not to do that.) when I shaved.

I have to agree. "Just because I wake up feeling 18", which is awesome, doesn't mean when I move, I don't snack, crackle and pop, because I do...

But there are already younger people here. (oh the horror). So be your older self and enjoy...

Where is Jack LaLane ? We need reruns of his 1960's exercise program!!!! And a few other unmentionable exercises. No time for that personally, but I do skip cafinated teas and coffee. LIfe is much better without. I would like to avoid chilly! COmpany while dressing?? My kids still walk in on me . . but heaven forbid I walk in on them.

You want to stop that... Just start talking about having sex either when you were younger or worse, when you got older, clears the room really quick... It's funny that most kids can not handle the thought that we had sex. How do they think they happened. dumbies.....
And dear old Jack, the man was the closest we ever came to a Superman. Made me fell old when I was young by what he could do.... He even did stuff at 90 alot of younger kids could not do.

Ok, my age is showing again.

Must be nice. I usually wake up feeling like roadkill. Of course, I did when I was 18, too, just not as often . . . .

I sounded like a bowl of Rice Crispies back then, too - price I pay for being so limber, I guess. Certain other sounds have become more common with age, though.

Rather than "older in spirit" maybe that makes us elder spirits or spirited elders?

And Wisher, you do realize that was a hijacking attempt by Spook last night, right? And though it may not have succeeded at hijacking the thread (I was too tired to play, for one thing), it seems one of the ads to the right of the page has been "influenced." I'm looking at a picture of blue M & M's.

Since I started posting here, I have been getting a creepy looking old Guy in an add that says: Signs that you might get Parkinson's disease.

I keep muting the ad, but it keeps coming back!

I get that ad sometimes, too. Frankly, I prefer him to the "barely there underwear" ad that kept popping up one evening!

OMG! Y'all welomed me wit open armz! OMG OMG lol!


Ok.... really, I am not like that and I kin spell.... for the most part....

I don't have to lay down to put my panties on but its been a while since I have been able to see when I pee.

Was going to get into the divorce discussion but it's pages ago, I am old, and I forget what I was going to say.....

Thanks for the warm welcome, and pleased to swap howdies with you'ns.

Ron, you know you can cut the ads off, since you are a GFM, right?

Loanwizard - Welcome to our thread, I'm thinking of changing the name to just "The Home" as None of US are old, but we all belong in a home!

Bunny is absolutely correct, that is how it started.....

I believe you meant "institution". Just sayin'

haahaaa speaking only for myself-- I see the world with a little experience and prefer it that way. BOdy is not old, not on most days. Rarely aactually. I can run faster now than I could 10 years ago!! I play soccer with my kids, go fishing, try baseball. My mind is . . rather phylisophical.
