THIS I’VE LEARNED

I WAS THINKING..
how all my smiles go unnoticed when I’m wearing my mask. But I’ve gotten good at guessing what others are doing under their mask.  Like the other day, I was so absorbed in browsing through the long row of greeting cards that I found myself standing right next to a man who was also fumbling the cards. When he noticed how close I was to him, he quickly jumped back and stood staring at me. (probably 6 feet away) I’m pretty sure he was sticking out his tongue at me. 

YOU KNOW YOU’RE GETTING OLD WHEN…
It takes longer to rest than to get tired.
your knees buckle and your belt won’t.

BRIGHT SIDE OF GETTING OLD
You can predict the weather by your joints.
You can say dumb things and people will overlook it because of your age.

KEEP A HAPPY FACE
Don’t take yourself so seriously. No one else does.
Burn the candles, use the nice sheets, wear the fancy lingerie. Don’t save it for a special occasion. Today is special.

ON THE LIGHTER SIDE
“The doctor finally gave you a prescription that will help you,” Gary said to his wife, Gladys, after they settled in their car. “I know he said you need to take it the rest of your life, but you’ll have relief.”
Gladys was silent and stared out the window.
“Honey, you’re going to feel better. Why are you upset?” Gary asked.
Gladys held up the bottle. “It says, ‘no refills.”

HOME IMPROVEMENT HINTS
Taken from FC&A Easy Does It)
To fix a loose knob on a cabinet, take knob off and dip screws in nail polish. After you screw back on, the nail polish will dry and secure the knob.
To loosen a rusty screw or nut, a shot of vinegar or hydrogen peroxide will help.
