Senior Olympics

Is there such a thing? Well, if you are disinclined to travel ...

How long does it take you to put your socks on?

I don't mean from the time the sock reaches your big toe until the top is above your ankle, added to the time it took for the left foot.

No. I mean from the time it occurs to you to put your socks on until you are upright in them and moving . . . .

I was surprised that it was under 35 seconds for me, from the time I left the microwave, made it to the lazyboy, and returned to the microwave!

There is a guy in our exercise group that is in a wheel chair due to a spinal injury when he was about 16 (car wreck). It takes him an hour to shower off after swimming and get dressed.

It takes me at least an hour to get ready to go anywhere, but that's with stopping to watch a little TV, let the dog out, change clothes twice....you know the drill.....
I would come in last in any Olympic event.

I slept though alarm this morning, got out of bed half hour late. I could not believe how fast I got ready this morning, still made it to work on time.

 

[Larisa]

Well done, Steve! You as a soldier - a rookie! And how much time you can find socks in the morning?

 

[ninnymary]

You should see how fast I move during commercials to clean my house!

[Nyboy]

Mary I think my cleaning lady does the same.

Steve, With or without shoes. If it is just socks. No problem. Adding shoes will add MINUTES because of the ankle brace and the struggle to get shoe on over it.
