To realise I might be getting older because….

[sploshsplash]

when trying to describe someone being super strong I referenced ‘Hulk Hogan’ …. It’s happening 😂

Yep, I knew it was happening to me when I fell in love with my Skechers yoga foam sandals 🤭 won't countenance any old flip flops anymore 😂

I mean, I’d say Geoff Capes or Big Daddy so you sound like a spring chicken to me

I bought sketchers sandals this year. There’s no going back now!

Thinking people in their 20s look like children 😬

Love a comfy pair of Skechers 😅

To realise I might be getting older because…
the glasses I had for short sightedness spend most of the time on my head and not on my nose these days.
Plus I keeps describing the weather as “scorchio scorchio” (and then wondering whether that is offensive in some way - modern life can be a minefield).

It was a few years ago I happened to see a bit of a TV interview with the Rizzle Kicks and the thought that entered my head was “they seem like nice young men”. Which made me realise that I’m old, and apparently morphing into some kind of cliched 1950s housewife 🤦‍♀️

My elbows will never be the same. I wish I hadn't looked at them in a mirror, they are saggy. I eat well, go to a gym, but it's just skin aging. I remember my mum saying about it and now I'm my mum and I'm saying it!

I look forward to going to bed.

I had to take my sunglasses off so that I could hear someone talking to me more clearly.

When I fell and broke my leg and the doctor at A&E told me I'd "had a fall". I glared at him and said "No. I fell. I am NOT old enough to have had a fall." At least he was amused.

That’s an important distinction!

Turn the music down when approaching an unfamiliar roundabout. Also the music is usually Public Enemy or Handel.

I realised I was at least getting older when I did not wear my Sambas to the Oasis concert last Friday because I knew the floor would be wet - those trainers are not designed to deal with slippery surfaces.

I was in a tiny minority not wearing either Sambas or Gazelles, but I didn’t end up falling over either so I’ll consider it a win even if I am thinking about “sensible footwear” at 36.

I say "like Linford Christie" for someone/something really fast... I'm 36 🙈😂

Popping over to my retired neighbours house to comment on how well her Laurel hedge has grown this past year 😩🙈. We planted some at the same time as she did but ours are half the size and we’ve killed some (very hard to do with Laurels). I now know I’m old because I’m secretly jealous of a hedge and used the phrase “popping over” 😁. I’m 39…

Quoting Father Ted and getting blank looks from the young 'uns in work.
