Age creeps up on you slowly and slyly. One day I was applying my make-up, when my little grandson looked up at me and I could swear it was pity I saw in his face when he asked: “Why are you colouring in your face, is it because you want to hide your cracks?”
That was when I began to read quotes on ageing. These are my favourites.
I’m still hot it just comes in flushes.
“Wrinkled” is not one of the things I wanted to be when I grew up.
Growing old is inevitable, growing up is optional.
At my age I’ve seen it all, done it all…I just can’t remember it all.
I used to have a handle on life but it broke.
Middle age is when going bra-less pulls all the wrinkles out of your face.
It’s when an “all nighter” means you don’t have to get up to pee.
In dog years I’m dead!
It’s hard to be nostalgic when you can’t remember anything
Old age comes at a bad time
Mom knows a lot but grandma knows everything!
Do infants enjoy infancy as much as adults enjoy adultery?
I took the road less travelled and now I’m lost.
Eat right, exercise, and die anyway!
I know I’m getting old because my back goes out more than I do.
Have you ever stopped to think and then forgotten to start again?
Real women don’t have “hot flushes” they have “power surges.”
Getting old is not for sissies!
Overheard in a Retirement Home:
Three old ladies were sitting in the garden one afternoon.
The first one says, “Windy isn’t it?”
The second one answers, “No, it’s Thursday.”
The third one joins in, “Me too, let’s get a cuppa!”
