So, Are You Ready to Become a Senior?
Time keeps marching on.
Are you ready? Time is moving on, and so must you. We’re so much tougher on ourselves than others. As we get closer to the big 65 sometimes we get very nervous.
Most people won’t admit it is happening. They refuse to acknowledge the coming birthday. They think about it with dread. Come on, people. Put on your big girl panties and face the music. Just think, you can dance all night if you want.
A lot of us think we need to do everything right, to not let ourselves go, so to speak. We want to perform as we did 10, 15, or 20 years ago. That's not going to happen.
It embarrasses us we have wrinkles or droopy eyelids. How come our boobs and butts drop a little lower than they used to. This is the new you. But there is good news.
Our vision is not as good.
You may not think that failing vision is a good thing, but you just haven’t thought about it the right way. When I look in the mirror, I never wear my glasses. That way, I actually look pretty good.
The only downfall is that so many of us use the 10X mirrors. Ladies, step away from the mirrors, and nobody gets their feelings hurt.
