Lately, the man of steel and I have become more and more aware that age is creeping up on us. Here are some signs of aging we’ve noticed since the beginning of 2014.

10.   Hanging out with friends at the Accessibility Summit earlier this year was as fun as ever. But it was a tad disconcerting to discover I was the elder stateswoman in the crowd. Not only could I have been an older cousin to several, I also could have been mother to a great many.

9.   During the terrible winter of 2014, we shared “old-timer” memories of the winters of 1966-67 (or was it the Winter of 67-68…my memory isn’t what it used to be), 1978-79, and 1981-82.

8.    Neither of us have any desire to ever sleep on a floor, on the ground, or in a tent ever again.

7.   No one cards us when we order off the senior citizen’s menu…even if we’re younger than the restaurant’s age cut off.

6.   When I announced I had no desire to squeeze into yoga pants, my children breathed audible sighs of relief.

5.   On a recent road trip, the man of steel accidentally took a hotel pillow and didn’t notice he placed it right on top of our pillow in the back seat of the car. We were horrified by our thievery and went back to return it, of course.

4.   About the same time we discovered we were pillow burglars, we realized we’d forgotten our camera. We retraced our steps and reclaimed it, of course.

3.   The list of foods we collectively have to avoid means eating at a restaurants with us is not for the faint of heart.

2.   My sister will turn 60 this year and her husband turns 70. Contrary to what we would have said 20 years ago about those ages, the man of steel and I agree our rellies are not old. At. All.

1.   We believe the auto industry should consider lumbar support and heated seats should be standard features in new vehicles.

Do any of those sound like you? What would you add to the list? Leave a comment.
