@wilma Those jokes are hilarious 😂 Thanks for sharing!

I remember taking my grandmother to the dr years ago. She was upset by the time they made her appointment and told me, "I don't like my appointment to be that late in the day, that's when all the old people are there!" 😂😂😂

What a great post! As of last month I'm still 5'7". Im plucking more chin hairs than eyebrows, my hair at the crown seems to get thinner every day. I'm blessed to still be here but sometimes I think what's gonna hurt today😂

@wilma love those! I'm guilty of turning down the radio to see better!

I for one have lost an inch. I need a step stool so I can reach into the bottom of my washing machine because it's so deep, lol.

Save The Turtles, I have been using the Barbecue Tongs for years now. They're just right for reaching into the very deep washing machine well. Hope that helps.

The first time I was "officially" measured as an adult (18 years old)... I was 5'5"

A couple of years ago (old adult)... doc's office meaured me at 5'3" ...

@qualitygal @jlkz @kaydee50 @On It : Mercy. Currently dealing with every single thing that you listed. 🤓 . Especially if your not tall and start shrinking. Christmas gift request for me: The long handle grabbing thingy : one for every room.

Yes!! He got 2 for us, when the one we had (use to be dad's) fell and broke.

@781Florist Oh my gosh, I too had to ask someone to reach a "low rider" at the grocery. I'm so glad to know there's a few out there willing to help us now.

I'm doing more tippy toe things too. But it's bad to throw a bath towel over the shower rod to dry, that way. Picture the eye roll going on. LOL

Opening cans and jars is becoming a real issue despite all kinds of gizmos. If I buy a bottle of water at a convenience store, I ask the clerk to open it for me 😕
