This Is Why Getting Old SUCKS…
We take a lot of things for granted, especially when we’re young. Even though your kids will tell you '40 is soooo old!' It's not. Either is 50. 60? Well... A new survey from Digital Hub talked to 1,500 people over the age of 60 and asked them to name things that have gotten harder as they’ve gotten older. Some may seem obvious, but others a frightening. REALLY? These things are going to get harder? Eek.
Here are some really simple tasks that get a lot harder as you age:
- Picking things up off the floor
- Opening jars or packaging
- Getting up and down the stairs
- Household chores
- Getting in and out of the bathtub
- Standing up out of a chair
- Walking long distances (That is why you NEED one of these bad boys)
- Using modern technology
- Putting your shoes on, and taking them off
- Driving (As made evident by every senior driver on Earth...)
