“Parachute?” Club
Yesterday my daughter again asked why I didn’t do something useful with my time. Talking about my “doing something useful” seemed to be her favorite topic of conversation. She was “only thinking of me” and suggested I go down to the senior center and hang out with the guys. I did this and when I got home last night I decided to teach her a lesson about staying out of my business. I told her that I had joined a parachute club.
She said, “Are you nuts? You ‘re almost 82 years old and you’re going to start jumping out of airplanes?” I proudly showed her that I even got a membership card.
She said to me, “Good grief, where are your glasses This is a membership to a Prostitute Club, not a Parachute Club.”
“I’m in trouble again, and I don’t know what to do… I signed up for five jumps a week.” I told her. She fainted.
Life as a senior citizen is not getting any easier but sometimes it can be fun.
Darn I see Tania previously published this… Oh well, if you haven’t seen it yet it is pretty funny.

oldbull-you have a wonderful sense of humor, I like your solution to daughter’s questions.We all have to decide how to spend our ‘golden years’ and I would like to just enjoy and chat and have fun, you’ve got the right idea. I have 2 sons and they never suggest what I should do, they know better.
OMG, giggles giggles…so funny, I hadnt seen it before OldBull. So how did your jumps go? LMAO…Helen xxx
