Senior PoPourrie
or something like that
Just before the
funeral services, the undertaker came up to the very
elderly widow and asked,
"How old was your husband?" "98," she replied.
"Two years older than me"
"So you're 96," the
undertaker commented.
She responded, "Hardly
worth going home, is it?
Reporters interviewing
a 104-year-old woman:
"And what do you think is the best thing
about being 104?" the reporter asked.
She simply replied,
"No peer pressure."
Sure I've sure gotten
old!
I've had two bypass
surgeries, a hip replacement,
new knees, fought prostate cancer and diabetes
I'm half blind,
can't hear anything quieter than a jet engine,
take 40 different medications that
make me dizzy, winded, and subject to blackouts.
Have bouts with dementia.
Have poor circulation;
hardly feel my hands and feet anymore.
Can't remember if I'm 85 or 92.
Have lost all my friends. But, thank God,
I still have my driver's license.
I feel like my body
has gotten totally out of shape,
so I got my doctor's permission to
join a fitness club and start exercising.
I decided to take an aerobics class for seniors.
I bent, twisted, gyrated, jumped up and down, and
perspired for an hour. But,
by the time I got my leotards on,
the class was over.
An elderly woman
decided to prepare her will and
told her preacher she had two final requests.
First, she wanted to be cremated, and second,
she wanted her ashes scattered over Wal-Mart.
"Wal-Mart?" the
preacher exclaimed.
"Why Wal-Mart?"
"Then I'll be sure my
daughters visit me twice a week"
My memory's not as
sharp as it used to be.
Also, my memory's not as sharp as it used to be.
Know how to prevent
sagging?
Just eat till the wrinkles fill out.
It's scary when you
start making the same noises
as your coffee maker.
These days about half
the stuff
in my shopping cart says,
"For fast relief."
THE SENILITY PRAYER
:
Grant me the senility to forget the people
I never liked anyway,
the good fortune to run into the ones I do, and
the eyesight to tell the difference.
thanks to Earl B.
