I, for one, do not think these are "golden years." Far from it. It is getting embarrassing to just live. Hair has suddenly sprouted from places no woman wants. Coarse and curly. Yuck. Mustache. Beard. Nose. Legs.
Even more weird physical changes started when I hit about 55. Flatulence. Talk about embarrassing! Oh my gosh. Unflattering at the very least. Usually not aromatic. This is my excuse for not doing yoga!
Today's email brought the most appropriate information from AARP. Nine embarrassing health conditions:
Bad breath
Constipation
Flatulence
Rectal itch
Smelly feet
Body odor
Vaginal odor
Fecal incontinence
Urinary incontinence
See what we have to look forward to?!!
Fortunately, there are a lot of aging baby boomers so we are getting a bit of help compensating with all these unpleasant health issues.
Oh, my! A spray for before you go? Where have I been? There's a few public bathrooms I can name that could use some of this just to get me to walk in.
ReplyDeleteToo bad ... it's for BEFORE use! A funny friend posted a commercial on her Facebook a few months ago. It was hilarious. Since I was having issues, I thought it was worth a try. WOW!
DeleteRecently using Lysol or other heavy duty room fresheners weren't working very well. This stuff is great.
Poo-Pouri would be GREAT for the public restrooms around here, for sure. And the one hubby and I share...lol!
ReplyDeleteWhen you post the symptoms of aging (which I've pretty much been experiencing my whole life, lol), it makes is sound on the gruesome side of funny. At least there is still wine! :)
I believe this is why oldsters have good senses of humor. Otherwise, we'd be grumpy old smelly people sitting in the dark!
DeleteOh wait! Some of us are!!!!
Your eldest brother just lets it rip when it comes to the flatulence. No surprise there, right?!
ReplyDeleteMaybe this gross stuff doesn't bother men as much? Or perhaps he's ALWAYS been the gross one!!!!!!
