You know you are getting older when..............

[KMart]

When all the cute college girls respond, "Yes Sir".
Sad, sad day!

This is the only cute college girl I know. She calls me PawPaw.

I can remember the days when nobody thought of wearing a bicycle helmet as a kid. Like Jeff Foxworthy said, you'd get your ass kicked back then if you wore one, and it's true, lol.

The young "nubbins" in deer camp are college age grand kids and somehow you and your buds are now the old farts.

You know you’re old when you look at this picture and the first thought in your head is: “That poor girl is gonna have back problems!”

Im not that old, but remember party lines, drawing water from the well, outhouses, butchering hogs when it got cold, open range cattle, seeing hogs and dogs through cracks in the floor of an old sawmill house, corn cribs, taters in the cellar, granny canning everything imaginable, whiskey stills, working ground and skidding logs with mules and horses because you could, carbide lights for coon hunting, filing the tips off of GI 06 ammo so it wouldnt pencil through a deer, making sure the "signs are right" when cutting a hog or calf, great grandpa milking his jersey and great grandma churning for butter, knowing which neighbors wouldnt make it to church when the river got up, drinking out of snuff jars, gigging with a lantern tied on the front of a cypress flatbottom, not going anywhere after it rained because the roads fell apart, feeding my pony extra when i really worked him hard, patches on clothes, hauling livestock in the back of trucks, working in the garden, seeing the first round baler in the county, pet coons and deer, getting lost night hunting and letting the reins down to get home, weevils getting in the flour, blackstrap in metal paint cans, barefoot almost always...the good old days.

I'm not old at all and a lot of these things listed still happen around here. Planning on "killing hogs" next month. Just opened a jar of homemade apple butter from the apple tree in the yard along with a jar of jelly. There are few smoke houses and corn cribs around with a couple of outhouses still. Just hauled a load of cattle to the sale in an early 80's model ton truck lasted week.
I've always said we are 30 years behind things around here. But its home and I dont think I would have it any other way.

Anyone remember Sunset Park where the early C&W stars performed? It was in Jennersville, PA, south of Philly. My father used to load up the family and take us out to enjoy the music. This was back in the '50s.
I remember seeing Bill Haley and the Comets at Booth's Corner Farmer's Market, around '55 or '56. He lived not to far down the road.

When you go from pimple popping to trimming nose and ear hair. Then you know you're getting old.

 

[KMart]

She certainly does and I am damn proud that she did.

Not all but most of the same, Thanks for the memories,
Playing Army when no one found it offensive is one of my favorites, Baseball with a hardball, in the gravel turn around between the barns and house being cocky enough to call my shots LOL with out hitting the barn or the light pole... or the poor pitcher

...you know you're getting older when, the words coming out of your mouth (to your kids), are familiarly like something your parents said to you. And when you pause, you can can't help but smile to yourself, cause you can hear them, as you say the words.
Don't you just hate it and love it, after gaining a "little" experience, figuring out that they were right most of the time. Cheers Mum and Dad.

When good looking women don't get a second look because they have small kids, or in my case, 15 years between your oldest and youngest child and the youngest is about to turn 25!
