It is HELL getting OLD!

[Mudslinger]

Retired May 22, 2020, turn 69 on May 20, 2022!

Problem is everything seems to be falling apart on my body. Major shoulder surgery in 2020 on my left shoulder, 4 anchors.

Now, cataract surgery on my right eye but the date is not determined yet.

Carpal Tunnel and Ulnar elbow surgery on my left arm on May 19th. 6 weeks recovery on this surgery.

I do not feel like I will be 69 next month, but my body and these surgeries are telling me I am an old fart!

I need more Bourbon!

At 62, here's my list of surgieries and issues:
- Tonsiles out
- Appendix out
- Gall bladder out
- Right knee ACL surgury
- Coke bottle glasses
- Liver transplant
- Ears ring all the time. Can't hear an armadillio at 10-yards!
- Arthritis getting started in both hands.
- Cholesterol, blood sugar, and triglecerides are all high.

At my annual check up last week, the "20 something" doc's assistant asked if I'd had any falls lately. Kind of ****** me off that she asked that. I'm not THAT old.

Fortiunatley I'm still as hunky and handsome as ever.

I wish someone of told me I would live this long. I would of taken way better care of my body. Oops too late...

Thing that gets to me is my can-do can't keep up with my want-to!

Thing that gets to me is my can-do can't keep up with my want-to!

I find I point at things getting done more now than when I use to say get out of the way let me do it.

[BayouCat]

Dang, and I thought turning 40 was bad.

[Pstraw]

If it don't hurt, it don't work. After all I put myself through, I'm just glad to be here.
