Livin' La Vida Llama ~ A Lighthearted Look at Life Over 60
The last time I blogged about visiting Disney World, I focused on mobility. That was helpful, but you also want some ideas of where to go while you’re popping around on your groovy new sneaks or cruising along (carefully watching for pedestrians) in your ECV (electric conveyance vehicle, also sometimes known as a scooter). It’s... Continue Reading →
Disney as an adult? Over Sixty? Absolutely! There really is something magical about a Disney World Vacation. Sure, you hear the stories about crowds and prices, but there are ways to enjoy the “Happiest Place on Earth” especially at this age. You just need to do a little research and know a few tricks. And... Continue Reading →
I'm running away. Well, only for a week, but I'm off to spend time with that mouse in Florida. As much as I'm looking forward to it, I'm astounded at how much I need to pack for a week's stay away. I take that back, it's not how much I need to pack, but what... Continue Reading →
I pride myself on being a geek. I may not be as brain-spry as I used to be, but I'm still pretty good at things like my computer or phone. Indeed, I've learned my lesson when it comes to laptops, specifically 2-in-1s. Never again. My latest one, the third in a line of identity-challenged laptops... Continue Reading →
I will get at least one of these done in the next 24 hours. Or so I keep telling myself. I am my biggest cheerleader, after all. My eyes disagree with me. My fatigue is in league with my eyes. My heart wants to play with yarn and this thing is seriously cute – or... Continue Reading →
At a young age, I knew in my heart I was a writer. There’s just something magical about putting pen to paper and watching the words flow into a story. Yes, I know, I’m typing right now. Let’s skip over that for the moment. About that “flowing into a story” thing. I was surprised to... Continue Reading →
The hum of our generator growls reassuringly, tucked in a corner just outside our back door. It’s been on since just after midnight. How do I know this? Because I was up until just shy of midnight finishing a book. The review for it was due today. (Yes it was worth the lack of sleep.)... Continue Reading →
Winter is finally here in coastal New Hampshire. The branches of the trees in our backyard droop slightly from the weight of the heavy, wet snow. Our vegetable garden is covered in the blanket I’ve come to expect this time of year. It’s beautiful outside. I am thankful it’s warm and cozy inside, with my... Continue Reading →
I just came across this and had to share! Even though most of us aren't 65 yet, I'm sure we know folks who are! I've used the Downeaster for a trip to Portland and it was comfortable and easy! As for Boston, I don't know about you, but I think driving there is nuts! (once... Continue Reading →
I’m cold! Now that may not seem like much to you when you first read this, considering that it’s winter and all. However, I’ve been warm, overly warm, or hot-flashed for over fifteen years. So to find myself grabbing a sweatshirt or a sweater is really a treat! Is this the end of the thermostat... Continue Reading →
