How old are you?

How old are you?

    59
Mid fifties here, which seems to be a decade that is playing out much better than my forties had due to finally starting to chill out. Needless to say, my thirties were a roller-coaster ride surpassed only by my teens and twenties, which may as well just be lumped together as twenty years of --"How the **** did I live through that?"

I am asymptomatic. As were 2 other drivers and 1 mechanic. We all wore masks everywhere we went as per company policy. I have worn a mask outside of work unless I was alone outside, or in the house. My wife is negative and she had her test done when I found out about my results, and she will have another test this coming Monday. The company tested all 25 drivers and our 6 truck and heavy duty mechanics. The ground crew is another division, and they have about 125 heavy equipment operators and laborers......... and they were tested on Tuesday with 3 asymptomatic cases.

I have felt fine other than a sore throat this past Monday.

I'm at home for the next 8-9 days days after being home the past 5.

Nobody has been sick as of yet...................KNOCK ON WOOD.

Thx, I feel fine.

I packed the wife off to my sons house because she takes meds that lower her immunity.

I've been hanging out drinking beers and tossing frisbies to my Blue Heeler mixed for 5 days.

I'm fine pards....thx None of the others at work have been sick either.

I just found out that my neighbor 2 houses down from me has been on self quarantine from a test result. Her dog got loose a 1/2 hour ago, and as usual he comes to my door wanting to play with my dogs. She's fine, but bored out of her mind. She goes back to work on Wednesday

I am chipping and pitching golf balls into a net off the back deck in between snarky posts. ;)

It's good that you aren't feeling ill. I feel bad for all those that have it, and have issues breathing.
 
I turned 59 a month ago.

That’s physically. Mentally about 15.
 
I am 83.

As the saying goes, I cannot believe that time goes by so fast!

The years after 30 accelerate. By 40, they begin to fly. After 50, it's "Holy Smokes!"

I feel like that already at 40. It's crazy to me that I've been breathing for 4 decades. Mentally, I still feel like I'm 25 or so. Physically, my right elbow always hurts when it rains. :2razz:

Believe me, it only gets faster, with more aches and pains...such fun things to look forward to...:2razz:
 
When you are 10 each year is 10% of your life

When you are 40 it is 2.5 % of your life.

Time is relative, or at least how you experience it

You generally show a good bit of wisdom...not meant to be condescending, just figured you were older.
 
I am thoroughly surprised how many people are 60+. Of course this poll says little about the entire forum, and could simply be evidence that older people are more like to vote ... but still.
 
When I was 3 all I wanted to do was poop and take a nap.
Now that I'm 63 I want to do the same thing.

And it's unlikely it will "get you" unless you are very old, in poor health, have serious health issues like diabetes, heart or lung problems, are obese, you are unlikely to succumb to the virus.
 
i'm 50 i'm to young to be a "boomer" and to old to be a "millennial"
