Seniors at the Coffee Shop
Mar 8, 2015 22:57:51 #
A group of seniors were sitting around at the Coffee Club talking about all their ailments.
"My arms have gotten so weak I can hardly lift this cup of coffee," said one.
"Yes, I know," said another.
"My cataracts are so bad, I can't even see my coffee."
"I couldn't even mark an "X" at e******n time because my hands are so crippled," volunteered a third.
"What? Speak up! What? I can't hear you, said one elderly lady.
I can't turn my head because of the arthritis in my neck," said one, to which several nodded weakly in agreement.
"My blood pressure pills make me so dizzy!" exclaimed another.
"I forget where I am, and where I'm going," said another.
"I guess that's the price we pay for getting old," winced an old man as he slowly shook his head.
The others nodded in agreement.
"Well, count your blessings," said a woman cheerfully ...
"Thank God we can all still drive."

While I can relate, at least I am still capable of driving my old clunker all over the city.

I must confess, I no longer drive at night.

I do, but prefer not to.

While I drive at night I don't enjoy it like I once did. Every year we'd take a trip up north (1750 miles) with most of it at night, not sure I'd do that now.

My daughter an I are travelling to Fl again next week. She will do most of the driving, I don't think she has a lot of confidence in mine, but she will do any night driving we may be involved in.

I normally drive between 65 and 70 on the freeway. There are times, with everyone passing me, I feel as if I am parked on the freeway. Fortunately, I haven't gotten out of the car to see if I have parked correctly.

To all you seniors who are having trouble driving at night, here's something that will change your life. Go to a Valvoline oil change ( or any oil change where they wear those yellow safety glasses). Ask for a pair or ask to buy a pair. They light up the night like it's day time. Try it, I swear it works.

I suppose I am blessed. In spite of my physical disabilities due to an accident, I still have my wits about me, and my doctor says my eyesight would be unusually acute if I was 20 instead of 60. At night, I can read street signs before some people even see the signs. So, other than my mobility issues, there is nothing wrong with me. withme. wekn)+9me sith mememememe.......
