    I've reached the age where 'happy hour' is a nap.


    Be careful about reading the fine print; there's no way you're going to like it.


    Money can't buy happiness, but somehow it's more comfortable to cry in a Cadillac than in a Ford.

    After 70, if you don't wake up aching in every joint, you're probably dead.


    Always be yourself because the people that matter don't mind, and the ones that mind don't matter.


    Life isn't tied with a bow, but it's still a gift.

    When I get out of bed in the morning and I'm aching all over from the work I've been doing, I start thinking about the alternative. Getting out of bed in the morning is truly a gift!

    There I tied your first and last together. Couldn't get the second one in there though.

    I've been saying this for years.........."It's better than the alternative!"

    Usually inserted into a conversation when someone (me included) begins complaining about their aches and pains. When it's me complaining, I'll be sure to include a "Wah, wah, wah!!" :salute:

    Life is not the way it's supposed to be It's the way it is. The way we cope with it is what makes the difference.

    Don't take life so seriously, you won't get out of it alive anyway.
