Sunday Selfie



My Mama talks about Aging and Old Age on her blog. She wanted me to tell you what Famous People think about old age! In a few weeks I will be 8 or 64 or 72, depending on whom you ask.

"You know you're getting old when the candles cost more than the cake." —Bob Hope


"I'm at an age when my back goes out more than I do." —Phyllis Diller

"You know you're getting old when you get that one candle on the cake. It's like, 'See if you can blow this out." —Jerry Seinfeld

"So far, this is the oldest I've been." —George Carlin and Beau and Mama

"By the time a man is wise enough to watch his step, he's too old to go anywhere." —Billy Crystal

"As you get older, the pickings get slimmer, but the people sure don't." —Carrie Fisher

"You know you're getting older when you're told to slow down by your doctor, instead of by the police." —Joan Rivers OUR personal favorite

These are all good. And even better is your lovely portrait.

I like Andy Rooney's, "I didn't ask to get old, it just happened. And if you're lucky it will happen to you too."

Good ones, Beau! I think my favorite is Phyllis Diller. No, wait a minute ... I just saw what Jean wrote about Andy Rooney. I miss that guy.
When is your birthday, Beau? Macie and Grace turn 8 y/o on the 28th.

Beau, I like what your Mama did with your picture, and yes, we are all aging together. We hope you will be around many more years.
