Quotes About Getting Older That We Simply Can't Deny

Getting older is one of those unavoidable parts of life that we all just have to accept.

Usually that acceptance happens after you realize you've reached an age where they don't card you at the liquor store anymore, and you no longer get the same amount of candles on your birthday cake as the age you're turning because there just isn't enough room.

If you're also realizing you're definitely not getting any younger, I think you're really going to enjoy these quotes.

Check, check, and check.

The only thing this list is missing is the fact that you don't know who any of the popular celebrities are anymore (do we all still like Leo or are we over him?).

Oh, and your body makes a little symphony of "please for the love of GOD sit down again" noises every time you get off the couch.

Those are the best.

Nothing makes me happier than telling someone I unfortunately won't be able to make it to their sister's daughter's baby shower any more.

I chase that high for the rest of the week.

Can't remember the last time I stayed up past midnight.

In the olden days, I used to stay awake until I heard birds chirping and saw the sun starting to peek in through my window.

Sometimes I still do a more mature version of this, meaning I go to bed while the sun is still shining because my body doesn't care if it's 7 PM — it's bed time.

May even snap a pic for future reference, too.

I also enjoy pointing out front lawns that I think are especially beautiful and well-manicured.

So if you ever see me driving really slowly past your house, please don't panic and trust that I'm just admiring everything my house is not.
