There are 3 signs of old age.

Real Estate Broker/Owner with WHISPERING PINES REALTY 20398180

My wife sent asked me to pick up a few things from the store.  I got a call on my cell and it was an issue for a closing for later in the day.

I got right on it.  I finished me errands and headed home.  But, I forgot to stop at the store.

You are really getting forgetful! my wife kindly told me.

"It's old age!" I countered defending myself.

You are not that old.

" Well there are 3 signs of old age and I have them all.  Was my retort.

OK...Name them.

So I replied..."First there is loss of memory."

OK, but what are the other two. She asked

"I forgot!" I said.

I have found that I am much like a fish.   We both get into trouble when we open our mouths!

Now, William, that was hysterical! Loved the fish line, and great fish photo by the way. Your wife is very gracious, too, because she fell down on the priority list. Living out in the middle of nowhere, if my hubby forgot to stop at the store on the way home--it could be a BIG problem!

That was beautiful! If I still fished I'd feel compelled to use your line. Not your fishing line...your old age joke. If I don't see you here in the Rain, have a great weekend.

Have a great day and be careful shoveling that snow that is coming.

Nice photo....and even though I am a bit younger, I think we all have that problem when we have too much to think about!  Have a great weekend, Bill.

Bill, I know you're making light of the situation, but Don is right...in my opinion...we get to be so busy that some things slip through the cracks.

Bill -- I thought the first one on the list was that hearing deteriorated, second was sight started failing, and then you couldn't remember what the third one was.  LOL
