* growing old(er)

Some signs one is no longer young:

• your pharmacist knows you by name
• a moderate workout is just thinking about doing a moderate workout
• the ground grows further away and is much further down
• hair of any color is a luxury
• hearing? not so much
• your lawn has increased in size by at least 50%
• it’s dizzying enough to just watch your granddaughters run around the front of you without trying to spin in time with them
• one nap is mandatory. two is a delight
• more and more life is done by watching others live through times you’ve already had.
