A little something that a lot of us know and can identify with..


Am I old yet?

A checklist to determine if you should consider yourself 'old' -- this seemed funnier before my oldest daughter called to inform me that I'm going to be a grandfather.

Do you wonder if you are old yet?

A simple checklist for you - if these apply to you, then yes, you are old :(

  • You no longer laugh at Preparation H commercials.
  • Your arms are almost too short to read the newspaper.
  • You buy shoes with crepe rubber soles.
  • The only reason you’re still awake at 2 A.M. is indigestion.
  • People ask you what color your hair used to be.
  • You enjoy watching the news.
  • Your car must have four doors.
  • You no longer think of speed limits as a challenge.
  • You have a dream about prunes.
  • You browse the bran cereal section in the grocery store.
  • You start worrying when your supply of BenGay is low.
  • You think a CD is a certificate of deposit.
  • You have more than 2 pair of glasses.
  • You read the obituaries daily.
  • Your biggest concern when dancing is falling.
  • You enjoy hearing about other peoples operations.
  • You wear black socks with sandals.
  • You know all the warning signs of a heart attack.

If any of the above apply to you:
You Are Over The Hill

But remember! Just because there’s snow on the roof doesn’t mean there isn’t a fire in the fireplace!
