I definitely consider myself a Senior now after I passed the Big One (you figure out!). I love swimming and easily swam 20 laps. Now I'm down to 5 trying to work myself up to at least 10 after some surgeries. That, to me, is a decided Senior. Hearing's getting bad, too.

After all I was still doing 5-7 mile mountain hikes. And I didn't mind taking the Senior Discounts when I turned 75.. I figured I better supplement the budget SOMEHOW. But tonight I seriously considered joining a Seniors' Club.. and I might actually do that. When do we decide we are Seniors? AARP says 50. Most organizations give you a 55+ age. Social Security USED to say 63, now older than that. Who out there thinks that they are a senior? Nite now.. gotta take my Geritol before I dance to the oldies but goodies.
