Several days ago as I left a meeting at a hotel; I desperately gave myself a personal pat down.
I was looking for my keys. They were not in my pockets. A quick search in the meeting room revealed nothing.

Suddenly I realized I must have left them in the car. Frantically, I headed for the parking lot. My husband has scolded me many times for leaving the keys in the ignition.
My theory is the ignition is the best place not to lose them. His theory is that the car will be stolen. As I burst through the door, I came to a terrifying conclusion. His theory was right. The parking lot was empty.

I immediately called the police. I gave them my location, confessed that I had left my keys in the car, and that it had been stolen. Then I made the most difficult call of all, "Honey," I stammered; I always call him "honey" in times like these. "I left my keys in the car and it has been stolen."

There was a period of silence. I thought the call had been dropped, but then I heard his voice. "Are you kiddin' me", he barked, "I dropped you off"!!!!!!! Now it was my time to be silent. Embarrassed, I said, "Well, come and get me." He retorted, "I will, as soon as I convince this policeman I have not stolen your car."

Yep it's the golden years

Senior citizens are constantly being criticized for every conceivable deficiency of the modern world,
real or imaginary. We know we takeresponsibility for all we have done
and do not blame others.

HOWEVER, upon reflection,
we would like to point out that it was NOT the senior citizens who took

The melody out of music,

The pride out of appearance,

The courtesy out of driving,

The romance out of love,

The commitment out of marriage,

The responsibility out of parenthood,
The togetherness out of the family,

The learning out of education
The service out of patriotism,

The Golden Rule from rulers,

The nativity scene out of cities,

The civility out of behaviour,

The refinement out of language,

The dedication out of employment,

The prudence out of spending,

The ambition out of achievement or


God out of government and school.


And we are NOT the ones who
eliminated patience and tolerance
from personal relationships
and interactions with others!
YES, I'M A SENIOR CITIZEN!

I'm the life of the party.....
even if I don't remember which one it was.

I'm very good at opening childproof caps.....
with a hammer.

I'm awake many hours before
.....my body allows me to get up.

I'm smiling all the time
because I can't hear a thing you're saying.

I'm sure everything I can't find is
in a safe secure place, somewhere.

I'm beginning to realize that aging is not for wimps.




Yes, I'm a SENIOR CITIZEN,
and I think I am having the time of my life!
