I'm a Senior Citizen


I'm not a Senior Citizen (yet). I copied this for my dad because I like to make him laugh!


I'm a Senior Citizen I'm the life of the party-even when it lasts until 8:00 p.m.I'm very good at opening childproof caps - with a hammer.I'm usually interested in going home before I get to where I'm going.I'm good on a trip for at least an hour without my aspirin, bean-o, antacid...I'm the first one to find the bathroom wherever I go.I'm awake many hours before my body allows me to get up.I'm smiling all the time because I can't hear a word you are saying.I'm very good at telling stories...over and over and over and over.I'm aware that other people's grandchildren are not as bright as mine.I'm so cared for: Long-term care, eye care, hearing care, dental care...I'm not grouchy - I just don't like traffic, waiting, crowds, children, politicians...I'm positive I did housework correctly before my husband retired.I'm sure everything I can't find is in a secure place.I'm wrinkled, saggy, and lumpy - and that's just my left leg.I'm having trouble remembering simple words like....I'm now spending more time with my pillows than with my mate.I'm realizing that aging is not for sissies.I'm anti-everything now: anti-fat, anti-smoke, anti-noise, anti-inflammatory...I'm walking more (to the bathroom) and enjoying it less.I'm sure they are making adults much younger these days.I'm in the initial state of my golden years: SS, CD's, IRA's, AARP...I'm wondering if you're only as old as you feel, how could I be alive at 150?I'm supporting all movements now - by eating bran, prunes, and raisins.I'm a walking storeroom of facts - I've just lost the storeroom.I'm a Senior Citizen - and I think I'm having the time of my life! ~Author Unknown -

chicken coop idea

Why not start with an IBC and cut a hole for the door? You could build closed laying boxes into it, and something for the chickens to roost on. Put some straw or saw dust on the floor. You could add vents to the side for air. If it sat inside a chicken run that you can walk into, the chickens could be safe, dry and happy. I have an extra IBC. Maybe this could be my chicken house? I bet I could even plant the outside of it with mud and grass for extra insulation and good looks.

The Opel Agilia

I think I don't want to spend the money for the VW New Beetle. It's a very cute and safe car, but cost about 17,000Euros new. I can find it for 13,000Euros (this is the most basic model) but that's more then I would want to spend. I don't really drive that much. I'm pretty cheep at heart. I need real value for my money. I keep thinking we really should take advantage of the money Germany is offering to trade old cars in for 2500Euros towards a new car. If I buy a car that's around 10,000 Euros, then the Government is actually going to pay 25% of the cost of that car. That's really a very good deal. Since I know I will need a new car in the near future, I feel I should get a new 10,000 Euro car. The Opel Agilia is around 9,900 Euros. It's got 5 doors, and room for 5. It is pretty safe, and comes with a 6 year warranty. I would not call it my dream car, but I could easily afford it. I'm trying to be wise here. There are other cars in thi
