Leading Edge Boomer Who Keeps Wondering Who That Old Person in the Mirror Is

Yep, it's happened to me, too. So I thought it would be a good thing for my fading self-esteem to talk to fellow Boomers.

Good Things: I eat right, keep a healthy weight (okay, I need to lose 20 pounds), get plenty of sleep, have a life passion (besides my husband) of crochet, power-walk six to eight miles a day, and can't remember the last time I needed to see a doctor.

Bad Things: My stubborn nature and preference for being a loner have morphed me into a crotchety old woman too much of the time. I need to socialize more and quit being such a PITA.

So here I am and hoping I'll be welcome with all my faults, anyway. I've been reading several of the recent threads and have much enjoyed the give-and-take. :)

Oh, we're retired on 30 acres in western Washington where I try to recreate the farm life I grew up with back in the Sixties -- can't imagine life without my chickens and garden.
 

Hi Redlo, welcome!

Welcome! We all have our faults and I have realized as I get older, I really get "set" in my ways! I am not a social butterfly and tend to like the more quiet everyday routine. I can go at my own pace.
 
Aloha & E Komo Mai from the Big Island of Hawaii. Your screen name caused a flash back to the 1950s & a Professor at a small college in Southern Ohio who insisted to this 10 year old boy that his name was Retlaw Rensop....

Have a great day.
 
Welcome to the Sr. forum Redlo.
Six to eight miles a day, wow.

I'm good for 5 miles maybe once a week depending on the weather and the gym twice a week.
Hate the gym, love to walk.
