    Senior & Not So Senior Discounts

    / 8 Comments

    Senior & Not So Senior Discounts ****Updated**** In this day and age when the price of EVERYTHING seems to be on the rise, it’s always nice to be able to get a little bit of a break. As I was waiting in line behind an older gentleman at Wendy’s recently, I heard him ask for his senior discount. The girl at the register apologized and charged him less. When I asked the man what the discount was, he told me that seniors over age 55 …get 10% off everything on the menu, every day. (But you need to ASK for your senior discount.) This incident prompted me to do some…

    Do You Like Being Old?

    / 5 Comments

    When asked “Do you like being old?” what would your answer be? As I’ve aged, I’ve become kinder to myself, and less critical of myself. I’ve become my own friend.. I have seen too many dear friends leave this world too soon; before they understood the great freedom that comes with aging. Whose business is it if I choose to read or play on the computer until 4 AM or sleep until noon? I will dance with myself to those wonderful tunes of the 60 &70’s, and if I, at the same time, wish to weep over a lost love .. I will. I will walk the beach in a…

    Homemade Hand Sanitizer

    / 14 Comments

    We will show you how to make your own homemade hand sanitizer that works just as well as the store-bought types. With it being cold and flu season, many people add hand sanitizer to their shopping lists. Older adults, children and people with compromised immune systems are the ones that are at the greatest risk of not being able to fight off colds, and flu (if they became infected). The best thing we can all do is make sure to wash our hands often! Very Very Often! Sometimes washing our hands just isn’t an option though. So what do we do then? We use hand sanitizer!
