Getting old sucks...

Not me today but the wife. Woke up, fainted, and we’re now at ER waiting for blood results.

Hopefully nothing major just exhaustion.

Thoughts are with you and your wife.

There is a bug going around that nukes your sinuses. Enough to give you the spins and knock you off your feet if you stand+turn too fast.
 
I think we need to start a club The OMC (Old Man Club)
We can have meetings and complain about young people, the cost of groceries, and our aches and pains.
We can serve prune juice and/or Metamucil

Thoughts?

I was at the grocery store yesterday and as I approached the self serve lanes, I saw a lady trying to lift up anther female off the ground. I did not see the fall but I am assuming her daughter suddenly fainted. She seemed a little pale once she got up. They helped her to a near by chair.

Could have been just fatigue or what you are mentioning.
 
Thanks everyone for the well wishes. Just got home from the hospital.

Doctor hasn’t found anything in the bloodwork or concern and pressure was a bit low.

Prescribed antibiotics and follow up with family doctor if nasal cavities doesn’t clear. Doc didn’t want to do a scan of the head, and she didn’t see any damage.

Wife thinks she hit the tub with her jaw / cheekbone but no damage or bruising seen. Just glad I was close enough to hear the thud when she collapsed as if I wasn’t home, could’ve been quite some time before anyone saw her.

Doc also thinks the lack of sleep, tiredness, and flu like symptoms the last 3 weeks didn’t help.

Thanks all.

I wish you could still get the OG Actifed from the 70s/80s OTC.

Pro: One tiny little pill and a half hour later the inside of your head was like the Sahara desert.

Con: You often started vibrating and had an urge to vacuum the ceiling (it was pure ephedrine).

Don't think my wife needs anything to go on a cleaning bender...she goes and does that stone cold sober.

Call it GTAM.
 
From a friend
SUBJECT: COMMANDMENTS FOR SENIORS

to speak several languages is an asset, but the ability to keep your mouth shut in any language is priceless.

Be decisive. Right or wrong, make a decision. The road is paved with flat squirrels who couldn’t make a decision.

When I get a headache I take two aspirin and keep away from children just like the bottle says.

Just once, I want the prompt for username and password to say, “Close enough.”

Becoming an adult is the dumbest thing I’ve ever done

If you see me talking to myself, just move along. I’m self-employed. We’re having a meeting.

“Your call is very important to us. Please enjoy this 40-minute flute solo."

Does anyone else have a plastic bag full of plastic bags, or is it just me?

I hate it when I can’t figure out how to operate the iPad and my tech support guy is asleep. He’s 5 and it’s past his bedtime.

Today’s 3-year-olds can switch on laptops and open their favorite apps. When I was 3, I ate mud.

So, you drive across town to a gym to walk on a treadmill?

Old age is coming at a really bad time.

If God wanted me to touch my toes, He would've put them on my knees.

Last year I joined a support group for procrastinators. We haven't met yet.

Why do I have to press one for English when you're just going to transfer me to someone I can't understand anyway?

Now, I'm wondering . . . did I send this to you, did you send it to me or have I only sent it to myself.

You don't need anger management. You need people to stop irritating you.

Your people skills are just fine. It's your tolerance for idiots that needs work.

"On time" is, when you get there.

Even duct tape can't fix stupid – but it sure does muffle the sound.

It would be wonderful if we could put ourselves in the dryer for ten minutes, then come out wrinkle-free...and three sizes smaller.

Lately, you've noticed people your age are so much older than you.


"One for the road" means peeing before you leave the house.
