A friend once told me that once you turn 40 things start going down hill.  I laughed.

I have 2 friends who turn 40 within 3 months of my birthday.

Within 6 months of our 40th birthdays we all started commenting on not being able to read things as easily anymore.

I fought it for years.

I now own bifocals.  I have added extra lighting to my workbench and I have magnifying glasses near by:)

Monday I go for  a MRI to see what can be done to help the hearing in my left ear!

This getting old stuff isn't for wimps:)

Ok, I'm 54 and I can't see or hear as good as I use to either.  This is funny for those who have a hard time hearing (like me) and this kind of thing happens to me all the time:

This old guy was talking to his neighbor telling him about the new hearing aid he just got.  He said, "It cost a fortune, but it was worth it.  It works perfectly!"

"Really," said the neighbor. "What kind is it?"

He answered, "Ten thirty."
