Ah, the wonderful journey of aging! They say age is just a number, but let’s be real – that number comes with a whole lot of surprises, wrinkles, aches, and a healthy dose of sass. They say that getting old ain’t for sissies, and as I see 60 on my horizon, I’m finding some real truth in this, and here’s why:

Where am I? –
You know that feeling when you walk into a room and forget why you’re there? Welcome to the club! It’s like our brains are playing hide-and-seek with our car keys and sanity. And don’t even get me started on passwords – it’s like trying to crack a code from an alternate dimension.

What’s that? –
Back in the day, social media was a breeze, but now it’s like we’ve stumbled into a digital jungle with emojis and hashtags as our only guides. Is that a thumbs-up or an eggplant? The struggle is real, especially when you are not wearing your cheaters!

Who are you? –
Remember when an apple a day kept the doctor away? Now we’re on a first-name basis with our doctor, discussing things like blood pressure and cholesterol. Our medicine cabinet is stocked like a survival bunker, and our ability to rattle off prescription names is a party trick. And let’s not forget the symphony of aches and pains that serenades us daily. Knees snap, backs creak, and suddenly Blue Emu is your best friend.

What time is it? –
Remember when we used to mock our parents for going to bed early? Well, joke’s on us, because staying awake past 9:00 PM now feels like a superhero feat. And our ideal Friday night involves a cozy blanket and a glass of wine. Is it that our beds just call to us?

I say raise your reading glasses to the bumpy ride of aging! It’s not about counting the years; it’s about savoring the moments that make us laugh, groan, and appreciate the beauty of growing older. Here’s to embracing the bold journey, because let’s face it – it ain’t for sissies.
