Ponderings on Baby Boomers

Am I a Baby Boomer? I started thinking today and came up with a few facts that I have read lately that might help me make this decision.


1. I keep catching myself saying the exact things to my children that my parents said to me.




2. My children are starting to look middle-aged.




3. I am helping to take care of my children, grandchildren and parents, but who is taking care



of me? (Sometimes they are all in diapers).




4. I have realized that my mid-section might be getting larger than the clothes in my closet.




5. The term Grammy's having a 'Hot Flash' has become a household phrase in my family.




6. With all my recent visits to the doctor, my health insurance is finally paying off.




7. I actually enjoy hearing about others sickness and operations.




8. My friends and family call at 9:00 p.m. and say 'Did I wake you'?




9. It takes longer to fall asleep than it did to get tired.




10. I know I am grown-up, because I groan every time I get up.



11. I could possibly live without 'sex', but not without my glasses. (just kidding Lee !!!)



12. "Getting a little action" means I don't need to take a laxative.




13. I know all the answers, but no one asks the questions.




14. I have too much room in my house, but not enough room in my medicine cabinet.




15. Kidnappers are not interested in me.





Now, that we have the facts, how many of you can relate. If you are younger than me and find yourself having these symptoms, you might want to call or blog me and I can give you some pointers. (ha :)



Hebrews 11:11 Amplified Bible (AMP)11Because of faith also Sarah herself received physical power to conceive a child, even when she was long past the age for it, because she considered [God] Who had given her the promise to be reliable and trustworthy and true to His word.



Lord, today I pray for the faith of Sarah (but just not the child) after all, I am a Baby Boomer!!!
