Middle aged Man problems

[cronullasharks]

I joined the glasses crew last week, kept being told I was squinting at the computer screen at work so went and got my eyes tested. Started wearing them this week and don't really notice a huge difference, wondering if the longer I wear them my natural eyesight will deteriorate quicker.

Only wear them when you are struggling. Take them off when not reading. Don't become reliant. That'll come naturally.

I can still read labels and things fine so doubt they'll be on my head too much for now.

Think that was more to do with a skilsaw than age.

While I laugh, I'm crying inside. Tomorrow has an early Ev Kickoff then straight onto Wales v Ireland in the egg chasing. Bog won't know whats hit it by the time I get there then Sunday will be a hazy blur of pain and Monday back to work with severe dehydration and gut rot.

This is the worse side of it. I spent half the day drinking Guinness and the other drinking cider, throw some buffet food and then a chinese on the way home and my insides won't be right for a week.

My arl fella and both brothers suffer with it (one older one younger) fortunately i seem to have managed to swerve it so far.
Absolutely chronic when it flairs up.

Hopefully it skips a generation

Come to terms with getting old a few years ago and now my stance is I AM OLD.

I live with every creak in my body mainly due to football , squash & a bit of boing in my youth ,can't wear very loose boxies anymore as others have experienced , nice trendy trunks now.
Can't see small print unless using glasses.
Earwax has defo stepped up a gear too.
Never been a real heavy sleeper but struggle to get 4 or 5 hours nowadays.

Hairs ??? wtf ....they get everywhere and the more you trim the faster they grow. Had a lovely rug on my chest since my twenties , have to shave it off as if left it looks like an old grey birds nest.
My inner works all seem in good order upto now but definitely more conscious about it.

Yep , it's not getting old ....I AM OLD.

the mind races with what this could be...
