Humor....Texting for Seniors!

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with Marshall Enterprises

I am running, running, running today.  Sorry I didn’t get the gardening post together, but I have an able assistant, Chief Cook, fielding the questions for me so I can get to them tonight or tomorrow morning. 

This is a rerun, but it didn’t get very many comments….and hardly anyone saw it.  And, if you did see it before, you probably don’t remember it anyway, right?

This is not intended as accurate information...but it could be used by families, I guess.

You can give your "kids" these codes:  

ATD       At the doctor's

BFF:      Best Friend Fainted

BRW     Bring The Wheelchair

BYT:     Bring Your Own Teeth

CBM:    Covered by Medicare

CGU:    Can't Get Up

My Favorite:  CYUATSC:  See you at the Senior Center

DWI:    Driving While Incontinent......ooops

FWB:     Friend with Beta Blockers

FWIW:  Forgot Where I Was

FYI:      Found Your Insulin

GGPBL:  Gotta Go Pacemaker Battery Low

GHA:      Got Heartburn Again

IMHO:   Is My Hearing Aid On?

LMDO:   Laughing My Dentures Out

LOL:      Living on Lipitor

LWO:     Lawrence Welk's On

OMMR:   On My Massage Recliner

OMSG:  Oh, my! Sorry! Gas!

ROFL...CGU:   Rolling on the Floor, Can't Get Up?

TTYL:     Talk To YOU LOUDER!!!!

WAITT:    Who Am I Talking To?

WTFA:     Wet the Furniture Again....

WWNO:    Walker Needs Oil

GGLKI:    Gotta Go: Laxative Kicking In

 

Hope you enjoy these!

Best, Ron

LOL...yes...sounds very logical to me on these.  Sadly the short hand texts are dangerous for Real Estate.

Endre Barath, Jr. I am not much on abbreviations either and all those Realtor designations are weird.
