You know you're getting old when.......

You walk out the door, slip on the ice and break your leg!

If you don't dye your hair everywhere you go they ask you if you want the senior discount!

or you go to the eye doctor and he says you need bifocals or even perhaps trifocals!

I haven't even worn my glasses for about 10 years and for the hair, well I guess I am vain, cuz I prefer the positive attention I get from dying it (even if I can't afford to have it highlighted, which is my favorite), opposed to the comments I get about being 60 or something! As for the fall on the ice, I guess I don't have Osteoporosis yet, because alls that got bruised was my ego and the palm of my hand as in the picture above, oh yeah my knee does hurt and swelled a bit, but after a good nights sleep, still no visible bruise and the swelling is gone!

I'm so glad you didn't get hurt more seriously! those things always tend to bother you for a long time afterwards and complicate the rest of your life it seems like. Besides. You're not old Auntie. :) you're fun and fancy free!

LOL, thanks Theresa, but the bifocals thing really got to me, I don't want to get old!

well don't worry. My mom's needed to wear those (and rebelled against it) for years and she's definitely not old. :)
