Kids these days

Watching Murder she Wrote, Columbo and Unsolved Mysteries, Poirot too(David Suchet plz and thank you)

Taking up knitting

I get up at 5:30 am and take a fist full of meds which are half vitamins.

I LOVE bingo!

I love telling nostalgia stories. I don't have the most good ones so I enjoy telling the good ones when I'm able.

I occasionally walk with a cane.

I go to the doctor a LOT

I have mountains of patience, especially for children and babies.

I love to bake and cook for people.

I wear bifocal readers.

I still use Avon and wear White Diamonds Perfume.
Etc.

Good question
I think I reached the tipping point when the memories I have saved are more than the memories I will ever have. 😊

If I'm not mistaken, there are at least a couple of SWeeps working in that capacity.

Playing tag with 3 to 10 year olds because the 30 years are too embarrassed that I catch them.
