- All the songs you listened to in high school can only be heard on oldies stations or are piped in as "easy listening" music at the dentist's office.
- You wake up from a sound sleep because your joints hurt.
- You wish it would hurry up and rain so your joints would stop hurting.
- The clothing you wore in high school that made your parents crazy is fashionable again.
- Bedtime is nearly the same time it was when you were five years old.
- You wake up before dawn and don't roll over and go back to sleep but get up and get your day going.
- It doesn't matter if your kids get you a gift for the holidays so long as they are with you for the holidays. (This might be maturity rather than age.)
- All the music the kids listen to now sounds awful to you.
- You have to ask other people in the room if it's hot or cold because you can no longer trust your own body to tell you the truth about temperature.
- You own at least four pairs of reading glasses but you can never find a pair when you need them or you have to ask your kids to read the label on the medicine bottle so you know how many pills to take.
