Woke up a Senior and don't know what to do

[sourland]

For me to fight the aging process I have to : Get out of my head. Get up and get busy. Avoid abrasive people. Eat/cook well. Have and work towards reachable goals. Life is about giggles - for me and for others.

Well at least some non senior related comfort this morning. Brushed my teeth, made a Latte, and went to open the coop and give everyone their morning Crack. After 15 years of chickenship, I still enjoy that the most of any day!

Doesn't anyone else have a Senior coming out story they could share?

 

[sourland]

Mine hasn't been a 'coming out story'. It just sort of snuck up on me, and I went, "Oh, crap!" I've recently noticed that feed bags are becoming much heavier.

The past two days I have had little energy. Pushed myself and filled rabbit feeders and trained 5 dogs, but I had to push. Am I finally getting truly old or is it just a reaction to the second Moderna booster? Pharmacist did say, "Don't be surprised if you feel a bit of malaise after this shot."

What is 'senior' age. I am not 60...yet but I am losing my hair, my body hurts more than it used to, I have more wrinkles and sags but I am thankful to wake up each day.

I try not to look in the mirror as well as I always find another sag (especially in the neck!) and grey hair (no more dye here).

I wish you a belated bday, I hope that someone will treat you to Applebee's and that your chickens continue to greet you with happy clucks each morning.

30 sucked, but in reality 80 isn't all that bad.

the 30s did suck.

the 30s did suck.

And I'm still not sure why. Perhaps because I had to start 'adulting'?
