Anthony has always had a wicked sense of humour so the other day, when I asked him if he knew how old he was, I thought he was joking at first.
Me: How old do you think you are?
Anthony: 16.
Me: Are you serious or having a laugh?
Anthony: Serious. We just came to the farm.
Me: I thought you were 23 when you came to the farm.
Anthony: No, I was 16.
Me: So how old am I?
Anthony: 52?
Me: So how can I be 52 if you are only 16?
Anthony: I’m young.
Me: Sorry to have to break this to you, Ants, but you are actually 80.
LONG PAUSE
Anthony: What rubbish!
Me: No, you really are 80, Ants!
LONGER PAUSE
Me: Have I upset you?
Anthony: A bit.
Me: Oh, Ants, I’m sorry but you really truly are 80.
Anthony: I think you mean 60?
Me: Well you only look 60. You don’t have any wrinkles.
Anthony: I’m not like those old men in the ballroom.
Me: Not at all.
Anthony: I’ve never felt so fit! Look [patting his flat tummy].
Me: That’s why I’m so proud to be your wife.
Anthony: Well so you should be.

Some things are just universal Jules…LOL! Tell a woman she looks good for her age and she asks “What’s THAT supposed to mean?” 😉 Tell a man he looks good for his age and he pats his gut and says “Ain’t YOU lucky!” I Love It!!
What a cheeky chappie.
I found humor and a little sadness in his words. I hate this disease!!! Big hugs
This post is ageless!
HA! You should be indeed! 🙂
My nan would always say she was 21, before she had Alzheimer’s jokingly but after Alzheimer’s she would be serious when asked her age and she would say 21
you two are so funny together, almost like an old radio show –
YES, ksbeth!
Awww… lol! I love this. ❤
That last line of his really made me smile. What a sense of humor that husband of yours has!
Funny how when reality hits, there is a nice twist that makes all okay again.Thanks for sharing I enjoy listening to your conversations.
Now you two gave me a big smile … you see we are so young as our heart. *smile
