    Girls night out is no longer (meet at the bar at 9pm, dance on tables, stay out till 3am, then get up for work the next day like nothing happened) now its lets get some dinner, meet at the restaurant at 7:30pm and maybe have a drink after. then half way through dinner everyone is yawning so there is no after dinner drink and you are all home in bed by 9pm on a Saturday night.

    Or a second or third tour after the farewell tour you saw in High School. Saw The Who during their first farewell in 1982, LOL

    When you're thrilled that you got to see your favourite band before one of the members was diagnosed with dementia.

    When you look at the pictures from last weekend's HS reunion (45 years) and are shocked by how old everyone looks. And to think these people that you used to party with, are now grandparents.

    I bought a new cane today!

    I bought a wooden cane from a Thrift store $1 a couple years ago after PT for my knee.

    Today upgraded to a new metal cane knowing I’m having back surgery 4 Oct for disc fusion operation. $23 from CVS.

    Good luck with your surgery. I hope it goes well and that your recovery goes smoothly.

    I have random aches and pains despite no obvious injury. Foot, back, knee, etc and I am more stiff.

    They stopped asking me 2 decades ago. Just started giving it to me.

    When you roll out of bed and your knee is swollen to the size of a grapefruit with bursitis and you did nothing to provoke that...

    When you fall and instead of your friends laughing at you, they're genuinely concerned you may have broken something.
