HOW OLD?

[TCRanch]

Born in 61, scary there is only one younger person posted here among all us old phart.

Wait, what? I've been called a lot of things, but now I'm dangerously close to being an old phart. Looking forward to that!

There use to be one or two around the same age or younger. Not sure if they are still around though.

Simangus king was a kid. .. apparently doesn't post anymore..

Yeah he was a young guy, wonder what happened to him? Just tired of it I guess. Some on this board make it hard for the youngsters. Ez14 ( I think thats the right number) and DenverMartin are 2 other youngsters that got run off unfortunately. If Denver stayed on course for where he was headed he should have quite the operation now. I really enjoyed his posts.

Since we are all fessing up I will be 45 this summer.

Mine only daughter was born in '66 - 56 yrs old. Two grandsons & a great granddaughter and great grandson.

I have three boy girl boy, raised the wife's youngest brother and sister.
Wife was the oldest of five when her mom died of breast cancer, she was 20.
Have eight grandkids five granddaughters and three grandsons, three great granddaughters and two great grandsons.

Somewhere my sister has a picture of me as a baby being held by my father, standing along his father and paternal grandfather. My great-grandfather and grandfather died before my son was born, and my father died before my grandson was born, so we haven't been able to duplicate that picture since. One of my fondest hopes is to live long enough to see my great-grandchildren.

I have THREE great grandkids, and let me tell ya, when the first was born I felt really old! My parents are still living..91 and 88, and this Christmas we made 5 generation pics for all 3 of them.

What makes you feel old is when a pack of linoleum lizards come running through the house hollering paw paw!
There not hollering for you but your kid.

Thats pretty awesome, not many families get a chance at 5 generations on this planet at one time.

When my son had my first grand daughter, my grandmother was stillliving and we got a 5 generation pick back then too.

 

[greybeard]

1 grandparent and all my great grandparents died before I was 2-3 years old.

 

[gcreekrch]

My wife's mother still alive at 90, she and Grandpa had four girls, the girls had 6 kids between them that have now multiplied to 16

 

[farmerjan]

When i was born, there were 5 living generations on both sides... Have a picture of my father's side that was written up in the newspaper...
Pretty neat deal.
Thought my son might follow but no wife or kids of his own.... my sister has 2 kids and one has 2 daughters and one has one son.... both brothers have 1 living child each and doubt either will have any kids....

My grandson is 5, so if I can hang on another 20 years or so we may be able to get it done, and he should have a son first since the male side of my family has a tendency to do that. My father, me, my son, and now his son have all been the oldest of each generation. My grandfather wasn't the oldest child, but his brother was, and he didn't have children.

When my daughter-in-law was pregnant the first time I was telling her that, and that she should get ready for a boy. She of course scoffed at that, especially when she had the first ultrasound and was told 80% girl. The next time she got one the lady said "Nope. I was wrong. 100% boy."

I was born in 1970. So 52 but feel like 75.

 

[Rancher]

Well all you ranchers seem to be kids to me, all but 2 of my 6 (had 7) children are in their 60's. Many of my grandbabys are in their 40's and some of my grandkids are teenagers now. Heck they call me a living fossil

It's great that you feel younger.
I had no idea aging would be this painful. I don't believe I was warned. I can't imagine how Ill get around in 20 years if I survive that long.
