It's rough getting old but, as I keep telling myself, the alternative isn't so great either.   Some people make it harder on themselves, though.  For instance....

A husband and wife were getting ready for bed. The wife, standing in front of a full-length mirror, takes a long hard look at herself. 

"You know, dear," she says, "I look in the mirror and see an old woman.   My face is wrinkled, my neck has wattles, my stomach and 'behind' are hanging down almost to my knees, my bust-line... well, the less said the better.  I have fat legs and my arms are all flabby."

She turns to her husband with a sad look and asks, "Tell me something positive to make me feel better about myself."

He studies for a moment thinking...  and replies in a soft thoughtful voice, "Well dear, there's nothing wrong with your eyesight."

Notice:  Services for the husband will be held at 10:30 on Saturday morning  at Ansem's Memorial Chapel.  Female friends of the family are invited."
