Stop the Planet! I need off!!

Ok, so the Earth is spinning WAY too fast, and in 4 days, I will not be 40 anymore! I did not celebrate the big 40--at least not on the inside--but this is even WORSE!! I told God a long time ago that 30 was my limit, but for whatever reason--I'm Sill Here! I was still technically 24 the first time somebody made me feel old--a 23 year old if you can believe that! So, I think I have used all my "old years" already!!
My husband, on the other hand, LIKES being old! He's 47 and already has his eye on a power chair, a set of partials, some diabetes testing supplies and a senior discount baseball hat--so they won't forget! I think he's crazy! If I can't walk out my front door and go somewhere without a motorized chair--SHOOT ME! In Native American camps, when somebody got old, they purposely went outside the camp and waited to die. That's me!! If my quality of life declines that much, I'll be calling Kevorkian!!
I don't have a problem with elderly people, I just don't have any desire to actually become one of them!! Maybe I'm picky. Maybe I'm vain. Maybe I like being strong. Who knows, but I refuse to be "in my forties"!! So, just in case anyone forgot--this year, I will be 25 for the 3rd time!!
Yesterday, I took my mother-in-law to run errands and had to drive like 40 freakin' miles to get her phone bill paid cuz she had the address wrong! (And, she was a schoolteacher!) Then, she didn't want to go to one store cuz it was too expensive and had me take her to a MORE expensive store instead! Then, come to find out, it isn't even her phone and she is paying it!! Please, Lord, do not let me get that way!!
So, I am no longer hoping I will get to live a full life before Jesus returns! I say, tomorrow works for me!! ( ;
