It looks interesting and I bookmarked it. The thing I like now is that I can stay up late and not feel guilty – and if I want to keep reading a book – I can. I read the book a Feminine Mystique when it came out and the thing I got out of it was don’t do too much house work! The more you do the more you’ll find, so take it easy.Vagabondehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10774109692564954568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050996142546962834.post-54009541202658702082009-10-09T18:37:12.732-07:002009-10-09T18:37:12.732-07:00How motivating!!

My body aches, but I can ignore that for the privilege of getting to grow wiser and older.The Retired Onehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02466803019073952351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050996142546962834.post-9524488351408977472009-10-08T20:46:38.938-07:002009-10-08T20:46:38.938-07:00I remember the days when "a woman place was i...I remember the days when "a woman place was in the home", and it was later in the century than one would expect. It was the late eighties in Anchorage, I took a client out to lunch and some where in our conversation he made the statement that "there are too many women in the workplace, they are taking jobs away from men". So help me, if he had not been a client I would have decked him.<br /><br />I am a firm believer in 'use it or lose it', mind and body.

It can makes us feel younger and active. Going out with friends, laugh and chat once in a while can help us cope with senior moments.<br /><br />One more thing...don't forget to wash, tone and moisturize hee hee.

Well, this one is fantastic. I love the idea that women (and men) can age gracefully.

I may not be able to do much physical movement anymore, but I keep my mind busy. I think it is just as important to exercise our brain as any other muscle.Raehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04858158707328118375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050996142546962834.post-83288103746511367992009-10-07T11:23:35.776-07:002009-10-07T11:23:35.776-07:00Thanks for posting this DJan... and when my grands...Thanks for posting this DJan... and when my grandson goes home, I am going to click on those links!<br /><br />I think that you are a born writer...

We have taken up walking and are planning on discovering new places to enjoy this pastime all of the UK.

I've know people who have terrible tragedies to cope with and yet keep a smile on their face (you). They are happy people and deserve their senior moments. Other people are old before their time and some people are rich and healthy and still not happy. With age comes a contentment, doesn't it, but it's not complacency, it is real contentment. The ability to be happy in one's own skin, even if it is getting a bit saggy. Have a great day today. Dance like a gazelle and sing like a lark and keep your smile going strong.
