Based on the original Meet Me on Monday hosted by Java at Never Growing Old,
Heather over at Acting Balanced posts 5 questions on Sunday evening along with a linky for you to link
up your post answers! Since Java is back , Heather has changed the name of her hop to "Monday Quiz About Me."
This weeks Questions:
1. If you could be on a reality tv show which one would you want to be a part of?
I really don't do the reality shows and have no desire to be a part of any of them.
2. You have the power to create one law, what would it be?
I believe I would make drug testing mandatory for those receiving public aide.
3. How's your weather today?
Back into the triple digits today. There's a chance of rain Tuesday through Friday though and I hope it rains every day!
4. Other than the country you currently live in, where would you want to live?
I'd like to visit lots of countries but to live in - not sure - maybe Australia.
And don't forget to add a 5th Question on your own blog so we can answer as we hop around!
My question today: How old do you have to be to be considered "old?"
Unfortunately, I feel that at 39 I feel old today...
ReplyDeleteI didn't feel old til I hit 40. Not that 40 is old, it's just that my body started to feel weaker at that time. :-p
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the idea of drug testing people on public aide.... why hasn't someone thought of that?
ReplyDeleteAnd old???? When you can no longer do the things you enjoy doing and sit back and ponder on them... then you are old... so no, Tami, we're not old!
I agree with your answer to #2!!
ReplyDeleteYou are only as old as you feel. Some days I feel like a spring chicken, other days like an old hen!
I think it depends on how you define "old" and who is making the judgement. I'm 46 and I'd think I'm old to teenagers (although my nieces disagree) but not to my Dad; I'm still a kid. I have a disability that doesn't make me feel "old," just disabled because my brain still feels quite young. There's still a lot to see and learn!
ReplyDeleteTruthfully I think things get old, not people, not unless they want to.
I asked my daughter that question, and she says according to AARP it's when you turn 50. Being as I'm 48 I disagree. I'm gonna say that ninety is old. Until I hit 90 I'm gonna go with that.
ReplyDeleteHave a blessed week!
I love your answer to number 2, and I agree.
ReplyDeleteI think being "old" is an individual thing. For some, it may be 50, while for others it may be 80. I'm 57, and don't like to think of myself as "old" yet! Perhaps in a few more years...LOL
Love your answers especially on board with #2 and old is the new 90's. i can say this because when I had my care home I had a group of 5 that I called my 90's club and they said yep that is us you have to be old to be in our club! I loved their out look and believe it or not those 5 in their 90's were actually on the least amount of meds!!
