BEST EVER SENIOR CITIZEN JOKE A little silver-haired lady calls her neighbor and says, "Please come over here and help me. I have a killer jigsaw puzzle, and I can't figure out how to get started."
Her neighbor asks, "What is it supposed to be when it's finished?"
The little silver haired lady says, "According to the picture on the box, it's a rooster."
Her neighbor decides to go over and help with the puzzle.
She lets him in and shows him where she has the puzzle spread all over the table.
He studies the pieces for a moment, then looks at the box, then turns to her and says,
"First of all, no matter what we do, we're not going to be able to assemble these pieces into anything resembling a rooster."
He takes her hand and says, "Secondly, I want you to relax. Let's have a nice cup of tea, and then," he said with a deep sigh ............
(scroll down)
"Let's put all the Corn Flakes back in the box."

I couldn't find my car keys the other day, even woke my son to help me look for them after I checked the ignition and they weren't there. Always keep them in the right front pocket of my pants...always. Looked everywhere I thought I might have laid them.... Then remembered that when I got out of my truck I was carrying two or three sacks of stuff....lo and behold I found the keys in the breast pocket of my shirt....where SOMEONE had put them. My son gave me no slack...

Heard my phone ringing behind me in the kitchen the other day. Turned around, phone's not there. It rang behind me again. Turned around, phone's not there. It took me a few rings, and turns, to realize it was in my back pocket.

It took me a few rings, and turns, to realize it was in my back pocket. I'm nearly deaf in my left ear, so when my phone rings, and it's some distance away, I sometimes have trouble locating it, just from the sound. Never had that problem when I had stereophonic hearing! Peace, OHD

My land line is always right where it belongs. I keep it tethered to the wall.

growing old ain't for wussies.....I NEVER had the aches and pains (when young) that I do now...and I still have to get out of bed and put one foot in front of the other all day long!

If I had known I would live this long, I would have taken better care of my body....as the old saying about horse riding goes...."rode hard and put away wet"...has been the story of my life (and all of it was self-imposed!) ;D
