Not at all
And if it was, that works for me
I've played the opposing hand to the 'Condescending' most my adult life, and have come away with the pot most times

Hypo, I do feel pretty sharp
I do have my dull moments, and enjoy them just as much....pretty much a relief
My thinking process has always outweighed my abilities
It does give me a charge, and goals
Big things..to little things
...like toothpaste caps;
Colgate toothpaste has a neat little flip cap
Only, I'm not so fond of Colgate
Aim, or Ultrabrite I like, but the old style cap
It dawned on me yesterday, just transfer the good cap to the Aim or Ultrabrite
I know, tiny thing
But my life is made of tiny things
Cool tasting toothpaste being a tiny, but nice thing
No need to do without if you can help it

Big things?
They take longer

Like building cabins
But...hey, that too is just a bunch of tiny things....that happed to be heavy

you are like the guitar teacher at my school. Batteries that never lose power and energy. Etetnal optimism. Whereas im closer to eternal pessimism. God given humour saves me.

82 and I'll turn 83 in a couple of months. I think 50 is too young to be hanging here with "real" seniors. I've got socks 50 years old....

I'm glad you're here to pick me up, Keesha. If you can handle being here with we old farts, more power to ya.
 
In my fifties I would never have thought of being on a senior forum. Egads! I'm now 71 and I would love being back in my sixties. I tell my 62-year-old friend to enjoy it while she can. It's not that I'm feeling old or have any infirmities, it's just that I don't like that my years ahead are so much less now.

I remember that one of our members who is in her fifties has said that she would have liked there to be forums for just 50-year olds, but that they don't exist.
