You know you’re old when……

there goes.webp
 
.….you fall down and instead of your friends laughing at you they run over and ask “Are you OK?”

.....All the guns you enjoyed in your youth are now classified as curios and relics.
Thank you, your thread allowed me to begin my day on U.S. Message Board with a genuine belly laugh :)
 
(1) I am 86.

(2) I know that one is old when one stops taking for granted the ability to walk.

(3) When I was a mere 85, I walked three or four miles several times a week to the store. Like you young folks, I just assumed that I could walk safely.

(4) Then a doctor gave me something that took away all my testosterone and subsequently my muscle mass -- and my self-confidence!

(5) I have not walked to the store for the last 14 months.

Frustrating to think of all the things you once did without concern, but you can't do now. I don't even repair my own car any more. I never thought that would happen.
 
I laugh at myself practically every morning when I get up out of bed bent over and taking small steps until I can actually stand up.
