You Might Be

I’ve been thinking again. That’s not a good thing. Remember Jeff Foxworthy’s "You might be a redneck?" Well, I’ve come up with my own version - "You might be an old coot."

If by the time you get your hearing aids in, teeth in, hair on and dressed, you are too late for the party - you might be an old coot.

If you have trained your dog to walk on his hind legs with a walker so you can keep up with him with your walker - you might be an old coot.

If you have to go next door to get a neighbor to come and help you find your glasses - you might be an old coot.

If your spouse dies and you ask for a senior discount at the funeral home - you might be an old coot.

If you get excited about a sale on Metamucil - you might be an old coot.

If the people at the drivers license office laugh when you try to renew your license - you might be an old coot.

If you eat breakfast at 11:00 a.m., lunch at noon and dinner at 5:00 p.m. - you might be an old coot.

If your favorite song is Happy Birthday - you might be an old coot.

If you are not an old coot, you will be. If you’re lucky.
