Suddenly Senior

There are a lot of sites on the Net that seem to cater to the
" Suddenly Senior " generation. One of the really interesting ones is http://www.suddenlysenior.com/. I love tha fact that they state that it is a site meant for those over 50 who feel way to young to be old. How True!!!

They ask you to write your own obituary - that should be fun - I am not too sure mine is really worth writing - but will definitely give it a try.

Another site worth looking at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osteoporosis
Basically, one out of four us menopausal women is either osteoporotic or somewhere near it. So read about it, this is a good site and may prevent you from getting any fractures or from disintegratiing bones

JULIE ANDREW'S 69TH BIRTHDAY SONG

Julie Andrew's 69th birthday song To commemorate her 69th birthday on October 1, actress/vocalist, Julie Andrews made a special appearance at Manhattan's Radio City Music Hall for the benefit of the AARP. One of the musical numbers she performed was " My Favorite Things" from the legendary movie Sound Of Music. Here are the lyrics she used: Maalox and nose drops and needles for knitting, Walkers and handrails and new dental fittings, Bundles of magazines tied up in string, These are a few of my favorite things. Cadillacs and cataracts and hearing aids and glasses, Polident and Fixodent and false teeth in glasses, Pacemakers, golf carts and porches with swings, These are a few of my favorite things. When the pipes leak, When the bones creak, When the knees go bad, I simply remember my favorite things, And then I don't feel so bad. Hot tea and crumpets and corn pads for bunions, No spicy hot food or food cooked with onions, Bathrobes and heating pads and hot ...

George Carlin's Views on Aging

This has been making the rounds of our emails for some time now. It aptly describes what we are feeling - thanks a lot Mr. George Carlin GEARGE CARLIN'S VIEW ON AGING Do you realize that the only time in our lives when we like to get old is when we're kids? If you're less than 10 years old, you're so excited about aging that you think in fractions. "How old are you?" "I'm four and a half!" You're never thirty-six and a half. You're four and a half, going on five! That's the key. You get into your teens, now they can't hold you back. You jump to the next number, or even a few ahead. "How old are you?" "I'm gonna be 16!" You could be 13, but hey, you're gonna be 16! And then the greatest day of your life . . you become 21. Even the words sound like a ceremony . . . YOU BECOME = 21. YESSSS!!! But then you turn 30. Oooohh, what happened there? Makes ...

FOR ALL THOSE BORN IN THE 30s, 40s AND 50s

CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL THE KIDS WHO WERE BORN IN THE 1930's 40's, 50's, 60's and 70's !! First, we survived being born to mothers who smoked and/or drank while they carried us. They took aspirin, ate blue cheese dressing, tuna from a can, and didn't get tested for diabetes. Then after that trauma, our baby cribs were covered with bright colored lead-based paints. We had no childproof lids on medicine bottles, doors or cabinets and when we rode our bikes, we had no helmets, not to mention, the risks we took hitchhiking . As children, we would ride in cars with no seat belts or air bags. Riding in the back of a pick up on a warm day was always a special treat. We drank water from the garden hose and NOT from a bottle. We shared one soft drink with four friends, from one bottle and NO ONE actually died from this. We ate cupcakes, white bread and real butter and drank soda pop with sugar in it, but we weren't overweight because...... WE WERE ALWAYS OUTSIDE PLAYI...
