So over getting older
I've had too many samples of old age recently and it is really grating my carrot. A molar broke - just broke! - and then I was deaf for a while, sheesh that's the pits, back to normal now. Then my eyes started blurring and I had to get specs and now my leg starts hurting when I walk my dog, will whoever is ill-wishng me just cut it the hell out, okay?
Someone, I think Bette Davis, said old age isn't for sissies. Another said after 60 it's just patch patch patch. I've never felt old before but yup as fast as one symptom gets patched up starts another. Off to the clinic, I'll be getting frequent flyer discount at this rate.
I'm a sissy. Take me now.

If you examine your lifestyle and think about the food you eat and the exercise you take, you could benefit greatly. You're in Spain, so have you considered s form of dance? For example, 'flamenco.' This is full of passion.
I'm proud to be 84 and all that it throws at me. I'm told I don't look my age but that doesn't mean that I don't feel it
3 replacement joints on I'm still up to walking with my local well being group and would even dance if I could .My boogie bouncer is great for exercise and a spot of gardening on my patio keep me occupied.
The most important part of ageing in my opinion is also keeping the brain active hence my visits to the blogs for my sins.Sitting in front of a T.V. all day is not my forte.
Embrace growing old and be positive as the only direction it's going is forward.

This age of yours has you thinking old withered & the end of the world
I get this feeling that you feel bored with life which leaves you at times feeling depressed so to speak
There is a woman at my gym whom has the body of a 20 year old yet she's 75 years old
There is 93 year old Anne she has a walker & is very unsteady on her feet yet she's always smiling in the heated pool walking up & down that pool till our Aquafit class starts
Experts here stand by the Mediterranean diet & our CSIRO diet
Nope not at you attending a gym or anything like that but just my way of saying come on you can get out of this thing of feeling old
My molars are giving me problems too. I had to have one of them crowned and the other one filled on my upper jaw.
I have pain in my body that can’t be explained. Started happening after 40. My doctor said you’re just getting older girl!

The diet and lifestyle here definitely helps, I may be feeling ancient right now but have local friends up to 10 years older who bounce around cheerfully and merrily go on 10 mile hikes at the drop of a hat. Of course right now I hate them

A friend of mine now living in the US recently inherited a fairly substantial chunk of money and decided to sort her teeth out once and for all, volunteered herself at her local dental college and had the lot replaced by young eager students closely supervised by their professor. It still cost 30 THOUSAND dollars

It still cost 30 THOUSAND dollars my only remaining rich relative has many calls on his purse and I doubt I'd inherit enough to replace even the broken molar - or could face that long in a dentist's chair - but her teeth now look the way they did in her 30s and she said happily she'll never have to get more than routine checkups ever again.
I've been going for a couple of months because it takes a while to be treated as they do an extensive study of all your teeth. They take one step at a time, but like I said it is worth it!
