What Aging Has Meant For Me

DX'd - Other
1
  1. I can’t jump on the pavement any more.
  2. My get up and go has gone up and went
  3. My sex drive is the equivalent of riding a tricycle
  4. I’m happy that the scale says 310 because that’s lower than 322 which it used to say thanks to the meds
  5. I don’t feel so tormented by bad things in the past because when I think about the memory disappears fairly quickly. The same goes for bad day to day events.
  6. All my favorite movie stars are dead or old.
  7. Winter is much harder to get through now. Going out on a Summer day amounts to risking my life.
  8. I have a new enemy named Arthur Itis.
  9. I’m glad I can still go up and down the stairs because that’s usually my cardio for the day.
  10. I’ve noticed that no one cares if I have a sex life these days.

I’m 49 actually. I said “aging” since I’m not technically elderly. I’ve noticed that members of my family who are my age or older appear to be in better shape. I cringed when I saw my nieces jump off a vehicle down to the pavement because when I was younger I used to jump all over the concrete and can’t do so due to plantar fascitis and ankle arthritis. I don’t know if they feel any younger really but I think I’m aging faster than they are.

You are young at heart, nonetheless, Blizzard.

My dad has a friend whose hair went gray in high school. You’re lucky.

I met this friend when I was 8. It’s been 30+ years and he hasn’t aged. He looks the same

I agree with you on all counts @Blizzard. One I would add is the fact that instead of being “cute” as I was when I was younger, I am now officially an “ugly old woman”. I see evidence of it every day in the mirror and in my selfies that I take. And surprisingly, it doesn’t get me down or depressed. I guess I am growing old gracefully.

I had a conversation with my Dad a while back. He’s 81 years old.

Me: "Geez Dad, when you hit your fifties, it seems like everybody around me are starting to drop like flies.

Dad: "Son, wait until you’re my age…there’s nobody left!
