Well, it has been a few weeks since my last post and I think it is time to revive the old "Sexless in Sun City" blog. Or at least do a posting themed around the musing of a 40 year old living in a retirement community....

I have been eavesdropping a fair amount in the "old folks home" and thought I would share some of the best pieces of wisdom and such...I cannot be held responsible for what was said, I am just the scribe. But all of these are true, I heard them with my own ears!

The honorees of a 60th anniversary party were each recipients of a very special gift from their children. She got a gallon of Vodka and he a gallon of gin. She said, "The secret to 60 years of marriage is staying slightly drunk the whole time."

A gentleman at the bar said to a friend, "I have been married 40 years, and 5 of them happily."

While in the jacuzzi early one morning, a man next to me had a few words of wisdom about being 77 years old...

"Instead of kissing my wife goodnight every night I kiss her good bye just in case..."

"Every morning I wake up and the first thing I do is look at my big toe. I know if there is not a tag on it I am still alive!"

I overheard two gentlemen at the coffee shop, and one asked the other how he was. His response "Well I am still above the grass....."

And my two favorites...I cannot decide which is better, and perhaps dear readers you can.

1. At a family holiday gathering, after everyone had left the restaurant, an older lady came running back in because she had forgotten her granddaughter - "We left the baby under the Christmas tree!"

2. And last night I overheard one gentleman say to another..."That man is on more damned colon medicine!"

I actually laughed out loud at that one. : )

Until next time....Brenda
