Wisdom from Grandpa...
Whether a man winds up with a nest egg, or a goose
egg, depends a lot on the kind of chick he marries.
Trouble in marriage often starts when a man gets
so busy earnin' his salt that he forgets his sugar.
Too many couples marry for better, or for worse, but not for good.
When a man marries a woman, they become one; but the trouble starts when they try to decide which one.
If a man has enough horse sense to treat his wife like
a thoroughbred, she will never turn into an old nag.
On anniversaries, the wise husband always forgets the past - but never the present.
The bonds of matrimony are a good investment only when the interest is kept up.
Many girls like to marry a military man -
he can cook, sew, and make beds and is in good
health, and he's already used to taking orders.
Eventually you will reach a point when you stop
lying about your age and start bragging about it.
The older we get, the fewer things seem worth waiting in line for.
Some people try to turn back their odometers.
Not me, I want people to know "why" I look this way. I've travelled a long way and some of the roads weren't paved.
How old would you be if you didn't know how old you are?
I don't know how I got over the hill without getting to the top.
One of the many things no one tells you about aging
is that it is such a nice change from being young.
Ah, being young is beautiful, but being old is comfortable.
Old age is when former classmates are so gray and wrinkled and bald, they don't recognize you.
If you don't learn to laugh at trouble, you won't have anything to laugh at when you are old.
Have a GREAT Day...
And keep Laughing
