Discovery, Age, Tranquility
Tranquility can come from many places. It can come from some soothing music, I always enjoy old folks songs for their relaxed melodies and introspective lyrics. It can come from a soft breeze off the ocean, that crisp air just smells and feels great. It can come from a soothing touch or voice of a [...]
Jonathan Winters Prevails
I recently was listening to my favorite podcast which has a mildly offensive name so I will not retype it here. But just know that it is hosted by a fellow named Marc Maron, a comedian, and he goes in depth with comedy stars of today and yesterday. On a recent episode he interviewed the [...]
Ride The Subway With Depends
I saw a number of elderly passengers on the train the other day. My fellow New York City “strap hangers” did the right thing and offered our seats to this pack of traveling octogenarians. These old timers were very thankful to us and they all seemed absolutely tickled to be out and about. I got to [...]
Respect Your Elders
All anyone ever wants is to be spoken to with respect. It is what separates us from barbarians and animals, that we should treat others the way we would like to be treated. As people get older the world is not so kind to them. They often feel pushed out of the way or ignored. [...]
Tranquility On Long Trips
As we get older it can start to seem like you are trapped in a smaller and smaller world. First you stop driving, family minds you on your walks, getting on a plane seems further and further from possible. You need your medicine and an available facility. Your body does not have the threshold for [...]
The Internet Isn’t Just For Young Folks
Something very exciting happened this week. My grandmother, seventy-four years young, started following me on Twitter. This of course means my 74 year old Grandmother is now “tweeting.” Apparently she is out to dispel the rumor that the internet is the domain of snarky punk kids. She is out to make Twitter safe for people [...]
Betty White-Mania
Last year was huge for Betty White. It seemed like you couldn’t swing a cat without hitting a Betty White appearance on a television show. It was quite literally Betty White-mania. What’s even cooler is that it has not stopped. She is still doing great work on the TV Land show Hot In Cleveland and [...]
Gus Gets A Date
Gus was a neighbor for as long as I can remember. He was shorter than me by the time I was 13, he wore a cool plaid hat and always had his coat freshly tailored. Everyone in the neighborhood knew him. He frequented the shop I worked in and my Uncle’s bar. He seemed happy [...]
Wordsworth and Tranquility
The mind that is wise mourns less for what age takes away; than what it leaves behind. -William Wordsworth The gilded age of life is inevitable, unless one unfortunately cuts life short. But there is much to look forward to as we age. The wisdom that comes with aging is priceless. There are many aspects [...]
Deal With the Changes That Bring About Surecare
Aging is funny. We get so used to doing things like tying our shoes and going to the bathroom without any aide that when we realize things are changing, like maybe we have to use Attends adult diapers occasionally, it may come as a shock. But really these are just little changes that quickly become [...]
