For the 'older' ladies here....

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.

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.

The nice thing about being senile is you can hide your own Easter eggs

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?

I've sure gotten old. I've had two bypass surgeries, a hip replacement, new knees. Fought diabetes and had some of my 'bits' removed. 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

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 coffeemaker

The good news is that even as we get older, guys still look at our boobs. The bad news is they have to squat down first

These days about half the stuff in my shopping cart says, "For fast relief.

I've tried to find a suitable exercise video for women my age, but they haven't made one called "Buns of Putty."

Don't think of it as getting hot flashes. Think of it as your inner child playing with matches

Don't let aging get you down. It's too hard to get back up

Remember: You don't stop laughing because you grow old, You grow old because you stop laughing

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.

That's sooo scarey! On my way home last week I rode past an elderly man with the meanest moustache I think Ive ever seen, he had a walking stick and it must have been his daughter helping him into the drivers seat of the car, parked about 4 feet away from the curb, on a corner! And we share the roads with these people!!

Good on them for still being out there but they can be dangerous, tunnel vision, slow responses and all.

I have encountered so many people like that.

And they all drive new 2-litre V6 station wagons at 40-60kph in the 100kph zone...
