There are pros and cons of getting old. Each year I realize how many cons there are but here is a list for you to contemplate as you reached the golden years. Who said they were golden years anyway?!

PROS:

1. I have more experiences to share.
2. I can now revel in my graying hair.
3. I can say whatever I want to say to others, because I am old!
4. People listen to my wisdom (sometimes!).
5. I no longer feel guilty if I don’t help clean up when invited to family gatherings. I leave it to the young ones to do.
6. I can get out of a lot of things I don’t like to do or attend.
7. I am forgiven if I make a mistake since I am old.
8. I thank GOD each day I wake up to take on another day.

CONS:

1. I have a new ache or pain each day.
2. I don’t have the energy I once had.
3. I’m getting forgetful about everything.
4. I am now the oldest member of my family.
5. I can’t do as much as I used to do with my books.
6. I don’t complete jobs as quickly as I used to.
7. I don’t like to put on a bathing suit!

Here are some jokes and puns from BestLifeonline.com.

1. If you lose something in a senior care home, don’t stop looking until you’ve searched every nook and granny.
2. The old man moved to Hawaii to live the life of a dentured surfing dude.
3. Do elderly hockey players get gerihat-tricks?
4. Pastry chefs know that old age crepes up on you.
5. The old folks home was very secure. Each door was guarded by a century.
6. You may be old, but I don’t carrot all.
7. Be kind to your children, because when you get older, they’re the ones who are going to choose your nursing home.
8. Life is short. Smile while you still have teeth.
9. My doctor told me I need to sweat daily, so I told him I’d start disobeying my wife.
10. Aging gracefully is a nice way of saying you’re slowly looking worse.
11. At my age, the only pole dancing I do is holding onto the safety bar in the bathtub.
12. The older we get, the earlier it gets late.
13. Old people are just young people who have been alive for a very, very long time.
14. Only old people watch the Grammy Awards.
15. Why am I getting older and wider instead of older and wiser?
16. Old age isn’t so bad when you consider the alternative.
17. The old baker understands aging—she’s an old tarte.
18. You know what the young chicken said to the old? “You’re no spring chicken!”
19. Age got muffin on you.
20. My father-in-law is so old that his driver’s license says, “Picture may be of someone else.”

I hope you enjoyed these puns and that you are feeling young no matter what age you are. Age is just a number and doesn’t define you.
