Get out and walk. Eat Jello to protect your joints. (It’s made from beef cartilage, and will help keep your joints healthy.) Buy beef gelatin to add to gravy, smoothies, etc as a thickening agent. Good for hair, nails, and joints. Amazon sells it in 2 lb bags.

Have another little drink sug.

….can’t last for ever`…..if you lose your mind ….your body won’t know it!!!!

I’m not old! I just look, think, act, and feel old… ☺

My warranty must have expired in 2011. Since then I’ve had a knee replacement, two rotator cuff surgeries, cataract surgeries and a bypass put in the femoral artery in my leg.

Prior to that, with the exception of four wisdom teeth, I had all the original parts with which I left the hospital after I was born.

One does not “have” a hissy fit. A hissy fit is thrown. Ain’t you know nothin’! LOL

I don’t mind getting old. It’s the body parts wearing down that really p!sses me off.

Mine too.

\\//_

So is mine.

Yep, it’s about time to get my walker.

Getting older might not be fun, but it beats the heck out of the alternative.

And you kids get off my lawn!
