As a 65yo, I have achieved a certain hard-earned wisdom that may have eluded you. I will share:
1) Just get up and go pee, it's not goin' away.
2) Start the fitted sheet at the hardest-to-reach corner.
3) If you get a cold drink, only to discover that you already had one, drink the coldest one first.
4) Work and feel shitty, or don't-work and don't feel shitty. Don't-work and feel shitty is a lousy choice.
5) Being weird is, in fact, a perfectly normal thing to be. *Everyone* does it.
7) If you think that things are bad now go find a person 20 years older than you. They will tell you to stop whining and to continue to enjoy the things that you still can do.
8) Stop trusting your farts.
@RamenCatholic @GeePawHill That is an invitation for one more from me.
9) For those of us equipped with male genitalia - train yourself to go pee sitting down so that it becomes a habit.
It will save whoever ends up looking after you a lot of cleaning as your ability/desire to aim diminishes with age.
Note : this is not mine originally but from an aunt who worked for several years with dementia patients in a residential home.
