FUN:- You know when your getting old.........when

[marchogaeth]

You buy a salad spinner rather than putting the leaves in a tea towel and whirling it round your head like you always have done..................and then get excited by how good the thing actually is.

When you go round the house switching the lights off telling everyone that we don't live in Blackpool.
And its not that cold to put the heating on so put a jumper on.
I admit I have put the heating on cause little girl wasn't well but since she is much better now it has been turned off. I am so turning into my mother

You get a message from your nephew, saying he's asked his girlfriend to marry him! And you think he's still 12 years old! ( he is only 19).

[noviceveggrower]

You know your old when you can't remember how old your nephew actually is. He is in his early to mid twenties. Well I think he is

When you can sit here with a cuppa watching the kids opening and shutting the fridge door. The reason they are doing this is because I told them that there was a little old man who lives in the fridge and he is the one who switches the light on and off when you open and close the door. Its quite amusing watching them.

That's lovely! I've always told my kids that lies are not welcome in my house and that they should always tell the truth. They were stunned when they' realised there was no such thing as Santa!

When you're on you're third cup of coffee in the morning and haven't done anything else..

To get my kids to behave especially on the run up to Christmas is I tell mine every time they are naughty I will go outside and tell the North star how naughty they have been. As the North star is above the north pole where Santa is, the North star will tell Santa how naughty they have been. Every time Santa finds out a present gets crossed of the present list and if they are really naughty then as everyone knows their names will be crossed of the list.
Hardly have any fighting or bad behaviour from late November all the way through December. Its great.

When you can remember what library tickets were.

When you get a new bed set, remove pillow cases and comforter from packet to see if it looks ok, cannot be bothered to put them back in packet, so put them somewhere. Go to put your new bed set on and cannot find aforementioned articles anywhere in the house

When, after a funeral service, you shake the hand of the priest and he says "it's hardly worth you going home, don't you think?"

I once did two funerals in one day at the same church one in the morning and one in the afternoon. The vicar said to me "back again, your must be popular with poorly people".
