I received this as an email but I thought it would make an excellent blog post!
Perks of reaching 50 or being over 60
And heading towards 70 or beyond!
01. Kidnappers are not very
interested in you.
02. In a hostage situation, you
are likely to be released first.
03. No one expects you to run –
– anywhere.
04. People call at 9 PM (or 9 AM)
and ask, “Did I wake you?”
05. People no longer view you as
a hypochondriac.
06. There is nothing left to learn
the hard way.
07. Things you buy now won’t
wear out.
08. You can eat supper at 4 PM.
09. You can live without sex but
not your glasses.
10. You get into heated arguments
about pension plans.
11. You no longer think of speed
limits as a challenge.
12. You quit trying to hold your
stomach in no matter who
walks into the room.
13. You sing along with elevator music.
14. Your eyes won’t get much worse.
15. Your investment in health insurance
is finally beginning to pay off.
16. Your joints are more accurate
meteorologists than the
national weather service.
17. Your secrets are safe with
your friends because they can’t
remember them either.
18. Your supply of brain cells is finally
down to a manageable size.
19. You can’t remember who sent you
this list. And you notice these are
all in big print for your convenience.
AND THE MOST IMPORTANT THING:
Never, NEVER, NEVER, under any circumstances,
take a sleeping pill, and
a laxative on the same night!
