Signs you are getting sensible with old age

Bought an exercise bike. Actually checked what my pensions would be worth and discovered I could afford to retire.
 
Keeping crap that you know it will come in handy sometime. Saving bits of wood for stirring paint with.
Funnily enough, I just emptied my basement of "stuff I knew would come in handy sometime". Some of it still in the boxes from when we moved in 20 years ago.
 
Getting a new cast iron casserole pot for your birthday and being so excited by it, staying in on a Saturday eve so you can get up early Sunday to put a stew on to slow cook
 
tutting at poor workmanship, using the word pillock towards poor drivers, having sharp intake of breath before getting up from a seated position, saying ahhhhh after sitting down or having the first sip of a cup of tea..
 
When you see something with a ‘lifetime gurantee’ .....
But you search for a cheaper equivalent because you won’t be needing it that long.

We looked at a food processor last week with a 30 year guarantee.
Opted for another model offering 10 years (but 50 quid cheaper)
 
I'm in that stage now, just put my scooby up for sale, bought some new comfy shoes and lounge wear, not just boxers and t shirt. And I'm at that stage were if I see any damage, I think what we're they thinking. But biggest of all, I can go sit on a bench over looking the sea or greenery for hours just watching the world go by

Sha, what constitutes loungewear? I managed to get around needing it so far, by literally wearing shorts everyday rain or shine, but feel I might need to up my game in the comfort stakes.

Another from me, looking forward to your early morning coffee and biscuit on a weekend morning way too much.
 
I enjoy wearing a nice warm cardigan on winters nights and being home from the club before it gets dark.

I make sure the logs are ordered in early September thus making sure that if we have a cold snap im well prepared.

Just ordrred a nice pair of comfy winter shoes.
