At What Age Do You Change From Being "Middle Aged" to Being a "Senior"? (moving, communities)

[124c41]

My gauge for seniordom is when I have more hair sprouting from my ears than is on my head, so many wrinkles in my forehead I look like like a Bassett hound, and taking Alleve every morning for my aches and pains. But, a fella I worked with many years ago who was a lot older than me said, " I may not be as good as I once was, but I'm as good as I was, once."

When I see white pubes, I'll hang up my spurs and declare seniorhood.

you have to be able to see over the senior belly for that.

if you don't vote you can complain about anyone , you didn't vote for them.

I stand corrected you can complain about anyone or anything at anytime (this is America for God's sake). I am old now I can barely see the tips of my cowboy boots and I have as many wild hairs on my ears and eyebrows as i do on my back!!!

as i get older i get a much keener view of politics...

with my great maturity and deep emotional insight i have realized

republicans are morons with bad ideas

democrates are morons with no ideas

and they both should automatically serve two terms.

one in office and one in prison.

i guess that sums up my view on politics , now back to sex .. or is it food now!.......

For me I became a senior when I signed up for Medicare. I aged more on that day than on any other in my life.

0-10 = kids
11-20 = young people
21-30 = young adults
31-40 = adults
41-50 = mature adults
51-65 = middle aged
66-80 = seniors
81+ = winners

81+ = winners!!!! Love that!!!!!! I'm definitely going to use that line from here on.

It will always be one year older than my current age.
