And now what did you do TODAY?

[swt61]

Today I became an official 'Old Fart'. In reality that happened on my Birthday in February, but since my local SS office was too backed up to do my Medicare application at that time, it became official today with a Medicare phone application.

I'm now the proud recipient of Medicare part A. Since I'm still employed with medical insurance, I don't need to apply for Medicare part B until I retire or stop receiving outside medical insurance. I believe at that time I can have the part B cost pulled directly from my Social Security payments.

I do believe full heartedly that I've absolutely earned said 'Old Fart' title.

My Doctorate in wood remains 'til the time of my demise, so it's Dr Wood Old Fart from hense forward.

Can I get that official title posted under my avatar please?

Welcome to the old guy's club.

My very grown up kids (41 and 37) describe me as the old fart who shouts at clouds. I tell them that I once was a young fart who still shouted at clouds.

I always feel like somebody is watching me...

Did you name your dog Rockwell? 😆

Nooo, but I should 🙂

Peculiar things about Great Danes:

1º Like Rockwell, a Great Dane will never give you a moment of privacy. Standing nearly 1.90 meters tall on its hind legs, it can easily open doors—including the bathroom door. Sit down to eat, open the fridge... you’ll swear it’s watching your every move.

2. This thing, at 10 months old, already weighs 42 kg and eats almost 1 kg of good quality kibble a day, and despite that, it will always be hungry (remember that Scooby-Doo always had hungry? Well, it's true).

3. It has no idea how big or heavy it is… my ribs can attest to that.

4º It loves to spook postman, Amazon delivery drivers, and others...
