Is this me? Yes it is!

I've come to realise I'm getting old!! I have all the signs!

I wear a vest in the colder months.

I go to bed and lie awake.

I like the heating on high.

I hate getting wet, so avoid rain at all costs.

I prefer being home for high days and holidays.

I don't like children running around in shops.

I don't like crying babies in cafes.

I like my cup of tea made just so!

My pillow has to be crease free.

I like my hair tidy rather than fussy. ( I'm still training my hair dresser)

I don't like the after effects of chili.

I have to clean my teeth after eating fish.

I talk about my aches and pains.

I take a lot of tablets.

But.... I'm enjoying some of the things that come with age.

I'm happy to pop to town for nothing more than a cup of coffee in my favourite cafe.

I'm very happy with a roast dinner on Sundays, then a nanny nap.

I love a quiet morning stroll around my garden.

I delight in seeing newly sown seeds germinating.

I love to see new buds on the trees.

I recognize different bird songs, that early morning Black bird's song is clear as a bell.

I can read all day if I wish.

And most of all, I can chose what I want to do or not do, the time I rise and the time I go to bed, its all my own choice.

What do you think, aging with joy or moans?
