Broom Hilda by Russell Myers for July 20, 2024

Broomie was the 50-foot Woman, at one time!!!

I used to be close to 5’3". Now I’m under 5’

“…mobility decreases, eyesight and hearing diminish, mental facilities are compromised…welcome to Washington, D. C.!”

It was a major shock when the nurse told me I was two inches shorter than it says on my driver’s license.

Same for me on my Air Force ID card.

At 5’ 11½" I usually claimed 6’ 0"… Have a harder time pulling that off now.

I’m 70, so far I have lost one inch and counting :)

I was 5’8, now I’m 5’6, but I identify as 5’7.

In my first year of shrinking, I’m down 1"

For men, height isn’t the only thing that shrinks… ☹️

I am still 5’11”……….

Blame it all on Newton.

Normally it’s us guys that complain about shrinkage.
