Now I am "old"....

[Aussie_Paul]

Well, today qualifies me as an old aged pensioner here in Oz. 65 years old!!! Almost 7 years ago it did not look like I would make it to today, as well as a heart attack last August!!!!

Glad you are still here Paul,

You know you are getting old when, as you bend over to pick something up, you need to repeat that 3 times to finally get to it, and once you've made it you wonder what else you can do while you're down there.
And then you need to rest to make the same journey in reverse but with gravity acting on the knees so that you have to use leverage (obtainable from chairs, curtains, tv stands, putting pressure on the cat, etc.) to complete the trip!

That's why I like flying..,you get wheels up, and float down, and the duration is the only time nothing seems to hurt.
And I'm going to live to be a 110 !

Cheers mate, hope this didn't offend, RM.

You know you're getting old when you start to "high-five" a friend for an accomplishment, and realize you're doing it carefully to avoid injury!

Stay the course Paul! I was looking at 65 in the rear view mirror a long time ago. Even after a mild stroke....it just gets better! When ya get into ya "dotage" you can do things that would otherwise get you frowned upon (at the very least!). Old age isn't so much of a state as it is a prize!
