@Sofia Is there a name for this club? I'd be good with an orientation because at this time I feel like I did in high school trying to figure out want I want to do with my life. Oh, I don't think I mentioned anything regarding constipation, however, thank you for that tid bit. LOL! And no...my sleep pattern is inconsistent. I can have several nights where I sleep like a baby, then I will have several where I get no more than 3 hours.
I would call it OWL, Our Whole Lives. Older people tend to take more prescriptions, many of which can really interfere in the bathroom. Well, maybe you just need a few nights' good sleep!
I remember when 40 hit me, I realized for the first time in my life that certain things could never come true anymore. I would never have a family of 5, never live in the same home 50 years, never retire after 40 years with the same company, never be married to the same man for 50 years, etc... But, I can still find meaning.
When 50 came, I realized there are going to be losses. I might never look better than I do now. I will lose some of my senses and body parts or functions. Everyone I know may be dead someday in my future. Most professionals will be much younger than me someday. My tendons, skin, and other organs might never function better than right now. But, I can enjoy the time and make good decisions.
If you ever need a short cut for one of aging's dastardly deed, PM me. I work with seniors and am seeing how these things are done.
