I thought growing older would take longer.
My bucket list: keep breathing.
Camping: where you spend a small fortune to live like a homeless person.
Being an adult is the dumbest thing I have ever done.
I’m a multi-tasker. I can listen, ignore and forget all at the same time!
Retirement to do list: Wake up. Nailed it!
People who wonder if the glass is half empty or half full miss the point. The glass is refillable.
I don’t have grey hair. I have wisdom highlights.
Sometimes it takes me all day to get nothing done.
I don’t trip, I do random gravity checks.
One minute you’re young and fun. The next, you’re turning down the car stereo to see better.
I’d grow my own food if only I could find bacon seeds.
Losing weight doesn’t seem to be working for me, so from now on I’m going to concentrate on getting taller.
Some people are like clouds, once they disappear it’s a beautiful day.
Some people you’re glad to see coming; some people you’re glad to see going.
Common sense is not a gift. It’s a punishment because you have to deal with everyone else who doesn’t have it.
I came. I saw. I forgot what I was doing. Retraced my steps. Got lost on the way back. Now I have no idea what’s going on.

It’s probably my age that tricks people into thinking I’m an adult.
Never sing in the shower! Singing leads to dancing, dancing leads to slipping, and slipping leads to paramedics seeing you naked. So remember… don’t sing!
We all get heavier as we get older, because there’s a lot more information in our heads. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.
