Uphill Downhill

Now that you've reached retirement age then what? A lot of things have changed over the years. Are you now single but was married? Are you divorced or widowed? Do you have children and or grandchildren? Are you wondering what you should do in this downhill stage of your life? Get up and get busy! Write a list of all of the things you ever wanted to do but didn't have time or money. What about things you wanted to try but was too reserved, like dying or cutting your hair?


Now is the time to whittle down your list. Start with a simple easy one, make it a short term goal with an end time and do it! You have more time to spend on you now, take care of yourself and have fun doing it. Eat right, move all your body parts, and get enough sleep.

Remember to read, the Bible and other books and articles to keep your brain sharp. Puzzles and word games are excellent small motor skills you want to maintain.


Lastly, travel. Got a friend or friends you haven't seen in ages-go see them. Visit family, aunts, uncles, nephews, nieces, and cousins. Go someplace by yourself and see something spectacular!
