You know you got it bad when you give your Mobile credit card to the waitress!
dcamp
Similar to Leanne's. Tried to "pay at the pump" but it kept rejecting my card. So I had to go inside, wait in line, etc. etc. etc. Was not a happy camper and told the sweet young thing behind the counter that if they offer the option to pay at the pump they should make sure everything is in working order. To which she sweetly replied "Ma'am this is a BP Station and no matter how hard you try, it won't take a Marathon card"! ....and now you know the rest of the story.

You know you got it bad when a coworker (male, early 30's) compliments you by saying, "I bet you were a hot number when you were younger!'

" you know you got it bad when you finally have a man in your life who charishes the ground you walk on, who thinks you're beautiful 24/7, who lokks good and is 10 years younger than my menopausing butt, AND YOU WANT TO TELL HIM TO GET OUT OF YOUR FACE, CAUSE I'M JUST MEAN SOMETIMES NOW"


45Granny, you are a riot!!! We have a lot in common, my man is 9 years younger and oh yes, MEAN I AM..... I would have kicked my menopausing (big butt) to the curb a long time ago; and we're neighbor too (Chicago)..... biggrin.gif

You know you got it bad when you can remember ALL the words from Smokey Robinson and the Miracle songs you sang to in High School, but if you go to the grocery store without the "list" you have brain freeze!!!

Hang in there ladies, we've all got CRS (Can't remember $-hit) ohmy.gif

TOO funny Drea! My son said to me recently, "I bet you were something 15/15 ago", I said "15/15??" and he said, "Yeah, 15 pounds and 15 years ago!"

I told him he just might be something in 20/20 LMAO!!

You know you got it bad when you grap a bag of frozen vegetables at the market and put it on your face!! laugh.gif
Drea
Oh Leanne!! Sounds like your son got your sense of humor! That is funny!! LMAO

Would something you are completely conscious of be eligible here? Like severe procrastination?

I have had a medical claim form sitting on this desk for more than 2 weeks. (We have to submit forms only when we go "out of plan/network," so it rarely happens). Anyway, last night I decided I had to DO something about it. So I put the papers in order only. Then today I got really firm with myself and filled out the top line only (name and address of primary participant--husband). I just could NOT complete the next line.

I made a deal with myself to fill out one line per day. I have no idea why this is happening. Perhaps I am actually going crazy. I keep up with housework, but can't face anything "important" like paperwork or anything involving money.

Now I've scared myself, since it looks so bizarre written out!

NAW Aimee - Im right up there with you. Used to be a very organised person. Theres paperwork I havent dealt with for TWO MONTHS ohmy.gif My 'IN' Tray is so full its walking out the door!!!

You made me life out loud when you said you decided to do something about it - and put the papers in order. Thats me tongue.gif

Once again Im out of the closet coz of another PS SIS wink.gif

Thats definitely a new take on - one step at a time !!!!!!!!!! LMHO

You know you got it bad when the kids and pets are bellowing to be fed..you feed the animals first and dish out "beef stew" for the kids. The youngest starts crying because she doesnt want to eat canned cat food, and you look down and see the cats are walking away with a very smug look on their faces!!!! blink.gif

ROFLMAO to all of you! Here is mine. I went to the McDonalds Drive-Thru. I ordered my food at the speaker. I drover to the first window to pay for my order. Then I just drove right past the second window without picking up my food. I paid but then just drove away. I didn't realize it until I was back out on the highway and I reached for the soda I ordered and it wasnt in the cup holder!

Keep them coming ladies!

You know you got it bad when you are in the kitchen thinking of a good recipe, can't find it in your cookbooks, get online and then forget why you are on.
So you go about the usual, email, links, games,etc. Then you get up go back in the kitchen at least 45 minutes later and then remember the recipe and then go back online and forget how to spell the darn thing! LOL tongue.gif
AimeeDecorates
MsJen, that is so funny! laugh.gif

dcamp
You know you've got it bad when you finally get a garbage disposal after 32 years of marriage and won't use it because you feel bad for the cantalope and watermelon rinds getting shredded to death!!!!! I can almost hear the poor things screaming. biggrin.gif

You know you got it bad when after working out to stay young and healthy, your 10 yr old nephew says " You smell old and look soggy".
joliejacq
You know you got it bad when you leave a yard-sale and go get into the passenger side of a black station-wagon, only to realize after seconds of sitting there, that not only is it not YOUR black station-wagon, but you are not a passenger - you've been driving YOURSELF around all morning!


(The laughs of the people who owned that vehicle are still resonating in my very-red ears....)
leanne0721
You girls crack me up!! LMAO!!

You know you got it bad when you lock yourself out of your office, have to call a locksmith, and 147$ later all you can think about is how totally HOT the twenty-something locksmith is!! biggrin.gif
msJen
You got it bad ...when you remember when you used to try and stay up all night because it was *cool* and now you wish you could get at least a decent nights sleep! LOL!!

DaMomma
OH my GAWD! I just did this had to come and confess...


You know you got it bad when ... you go to the kitchen for a small bowl of ice cream. Walk back and sit at the puter to read some more posts. As you are enjoying your little treat...and getting to laugh too, all of a sudden you realize your lap is really getting cold for such a small bowl..DUH! you have brought the WHOLE pail of ice cream with and stuck your bowl in the freezer! tongue.gif

So much for a small bowl..the kids will have to fight over what I left..Moooohahaha

A clerk all of the age of maybe 20 comes by and asks if you need help reaching something in the freezer.... you turn and tell him, .."Yeah, to reach the end of menopause." You embarrass not only the cleck , whose face has turn beet red and walks away...but also your DS who turns around and leaves the store and you find him out in the car waitting for you!!! ohmy.gif

I hate to grocery shop! I think it brings on a hot flash every time I go to the grocery store. It's like one long hot flash the whole time I'm getting groceries. The frozen foods are right before I check out, I actually have done that more than once. Glad to see I'm not the only one who's done that! biggrin.gif
rendy
Ok, ya know ya got it bad when you dial into the the 8am conference call with the number from the 7am call and then sit there on hold for 10 minutes wondering where everyone is. Then ya dial-in again with the SAME number!
