Lying around, pondering the problems of the world, I realized that at my age I don't really give a toss anymore.
If walking is good for your health, the postman would be immortal.
A whale swims all day, only eats fish, drinks water, but is still fat.
A rabbit runs and hops and only lives 15 years, while a tortoise doesn't run and does mostly nothing, yet it lives for 150 years.
And they tell us to exercise? I don't think so.

Now that I'm older, here's what I've discovered:
1. I started out with nothing, and I still have most of it.
2. My wild oats are mostly enjoyed with prunes and all-bran.
4. Funny, I don't remember being absent-minded.
5. Funny, I don't remember being absent-minded.
6. If all is not lost, then where the heck is it?
7. It was a whole lot easier to get older than it was to get wiser.
8. Some days, you're the top dog, some days you're the hydrant.
9. I wish the buck really did stop here, I sure could use a few of them.
10. Kids in the back seat cause accidents.
11. Accidents in the back seat cause kids.
12. It's hard to make a comeback when you haven't been anywhere.
13. The world only beats a path to your door when you're in the bathroom.
14. If God wanted me to touch my toes, he'd have put them on my knees.
15. When I'm finally holding all the right cards, everyone wants to play chess.
16. It's not hard to meet expenses . . .. They're everywhere.
17. The only difference between a rut and a grave is the depth.
18. These days, I spend a lot of time thinking about the hereafter . . . I go somewhere to get something, and then wonder what I'm "here after".
19. Funny, I don't remember being absent-minded.
20. Have I posted this message before...or did I get it from you? :rolleyes:
 
:) 15 is my favourite, closely followed by 18 and 19;):)
Thanks,
I didn't like "Your Little Pony", and I'm still undecided on the Football Field, a Bit square?
Im talking about your Avatar,- does this now mean you are official?

Yes I'm official now. So I suppose my first 1600 odd posts didn't count! I didn't like the pony one either, that wasn't my favourite time of life. Well, I thought the footie ground was more 'me'. Other choices I had were a tennis court (No idea why) and a couple of holiday snaps. Oh, back soon, I'm cooking lunch and I know it's ready 'cos the smoke detector is going off.

I liked your suggestion for my avatar...I tried to put one up of tulip fields, but it didn't fit and I couldn't be bothered to make it fit, so I chose the footie theme.
 
Nothing that interesting I'm afraid. It's what my grown up son calls me now he doesn't call me 'mum' anymore! My name is Suzanne. I don't like being called Sue or Susan, but Suz or Suzanne is OK. Only 2 special people have been allowed to call me Suzy. So family and one or two friends started at the end and called me zanna, which became zando, which became zand. I bet you wished you hadn't asked now!
