They Say It's Lovely Getting Old. Who Said That?

Well, well, well. Here we are again my friends. The ice and snow are gone for now. I'm suppose to get some snow on Friday. Lucky me! Tomorrow night my neighbors, Ron & Judy are coming over to spend some time playing cards and then having coffee. I decided to make a cake to enjoy with our coffee. 

My friend John sent me a photo of himself sitting in a chair in Punta Cana. I think he's in the Dominican Republic . Lucky him, sunshine and warm weather.


                                 Lucky John!


Bob, age 92, and Mary, age 89, are all excited about their decision to get married. While out for a stroll to discuss the wedding they pass a drugstore. Bob suggests they go in.

Bob asks to speak to the pharmacist. He explains they're about to get married, and asks,

"Do you sell heart medication?"

"Of course we do," the pharmacist replies.

"Medicine for rheumatism?"

"Definitely," he says.

"How about Viagra?"

"Of course."

"Medicine for memory problems, arthritis, jaundice?"

"Yes, the works."

"What about vitamins, sleeping pills, Geritol, antacids?"

"Absolutely."

"Do you sell wheelchairs and walkers?"

"All speeds and sizes."

"Good," Bob says to the pharmacist. "We'd like to register for our wedding gifts here, please." 

 


 

"To my friend's astonishment, a police car pulled up to her house and her elderly grand-father got out. The patrolman explained that the old gentleman had been lost in the city park and had asked for help.

"Why, Grandfather," my friend said, "you've been going there for 40 years. How could you get lost?"

The old man smiled slyly. "Wasn't exactly lost," he admitted. "I just got tired of walking."

 


 "Because they had no reservations at a busy restaurant, my elderly neighbor and his wife were told there would be a 45-minute wait for a table.

"Young man, we're both 90 years old," he told the maitre d'. "We may not have 45 minutes."

They were seated immediately."

  3. Did you hear about John and Martha?

    John woke up suddenly one morning feeling a little, shall we say, frisky. He turned to Martha and said, "Martha, do you wanna fool around?"

    Martha replied, "Well, I guess so, John, if you want to."

    A moment later John said, "Martha, do you remember how?"

    Have a great week and remember we're all just here to walk each other home.
