Getting old means...

[Pat/Rick]

To me it means teaching the grand kids things I think they should know, and listening to my daughter hollor to my wife to make me quit that. Also watching my son in law standing back and not saying a word.

LOL! Always told my daughter that when she had kids I was going to let them do everything I told her she couldn't do. Apparently she doesn't think I was such a bad dad after all  .

What gets broke, stays broke.  What dont hurt, dont work. And you can never, ever trust a fart.

Getting old to many people means many things. I just have to say, on a slightly serious vein, Thank you Lord for another breath and for waking up and seeing the light again. Thank you Lord for my wonderful cup of coffee. Thank you Lord that I could remember where I put the matches to light that dam cigarette.  OH, and LORD , I eternally Bless and THANK YOU that that fart REALLY was a fart. Too many times, 'Twernt.

I have to say there is a MAJOR amount of good humor here. That, I believe, is the real secret to "growing old". Thank you, twodollarpistol, for that really cracked me up, It was great. Thanks guys. God Bless to all.

Getting old means: Taking the good with the bad. Loosing Donna in 2005, never will get over that. Getting cancer sucks. Walking back to the cabin wishing I carried a lighter rifle and pack. Chest pains. That was bad.
Watching a buck walk by 20 feet away and not shooting. Going to my grandaughters graduation and seeing her off to college. " I love you grandpa". Priceless. Watching a 3 year old put a small onion in her pants pocket and trying to get her hand out without letting go. Funny. Having 17 boys call wishing me a happy fathers day, wonderfull.
Forgetting where I parked the truck, frustrating. Watching hundreds of snow geese flying so low, you can hear the wind in their wings. Terrific. At 75, I still laugh at things and accept what ever follows. You may as well enjoy the ride.

Better to be over the hill than under it.

Getting old can be fine if you know how to keep the complaining to a minimum. Keep you self active and in decent shape. It will make getting old allot easier.
