Title: What’s the most difficult thing about getting older?
Post by: camellia0 on February 06, 2018, 04:57:41 am: I have to say aches. I heard my grandma and older people talk about aches, but I feel it sometimes.

Post by: teresa3200 on February 06, 2018, 07:06:54 am: The wrinkles and the aches. Arthritis beats me up daily. I'm sure the pain doesn't help the wrinkles either. But I'm fighting it and won't give up trying to find the fountain of youth. LOL

Post by: braggin on February 06, 2018, 11:42:30 am: So far, I have been enjoying old age tremendously. But, thank Heavens, I haven't yet been challenged with any of the physical problems so many of my friends my age have, like bad knees, bad backs, etc. Knock on wood. I am 70 years old and still able to run 15 miles a week and do whatever I please. I am sure that will come to a halt in the relatively near future, but until it does, I am going to enjoy every minute.

I agree with you. I've lost so many friends and family that it gets quite lonely. I can only hope I go first. My husband has friends. Mine are gone and being disabled, unable to drive, I would wind up being one of those people who die in the house and not found for weeks. I do have 2 boys but they have their own life and I only hear or see them on Christmas Eve with whatever current girlfriend they're with. i think they just can't get over the fact that I'm dependent on someone for going to the doctor or store since I've only been this way for going on 6 years. Up until then, I was totally independent and never needed to ask for help. :(

Title: Re: What’s the most difficult thing about getting older?
Post by: debidoo on February 07, 2018, 09:58:58 am: Honestly I would say losing loved ones and friends. The older I get the more people I have lost - grandparents, parents, husband. But it is a fact of life. I guess wrinkles, hair color and all that takes a back seat for sure to losing people. But we have to keep on keeping on and appreciate who and what we have left.

I miss the days I could go all day long and half of the night and get up and do it all over. Yep at 74 those days are gone, the aches and pains are here to stay. But I refuse to give up. I still volunteer 2 days a week at a small charity, help do yard work, and of course all of the things around the house. Still love to travel.

That is the way I feel too. My parents have a sign in their kitchen that says "Old age ain't for sissies!".

I have to say aches. I heard my grandma and older people talk about aches, but I feel it sometimes.

Hello! :D :)

I've been afraid of aging ever since I was younger. It all seems unattractive graying hair, wrinkles that never end, and of course all the lovely aches and pains. However, if you really think and put things into perspective then you will realize that there is always a time for everything. When you were youthful and attractive was the time to fulfill all your heart desires and old age was meant to slow down and reflect on the life you had and make the most of your time left. When you think about the alternative to being underground and not being part of anything then you begin to realize how blessed you are. :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose:

Post by: jwkelly on February 15, 2018, 03:11:47 am: I would have to say "body tightness" esp with cold dry weather(my lower right back as well as my right shoulder area) I tell ya there have been times during this winter that my entire upper right arm area was so tight that you think my right arm was fused to my side or I was wearing an invisible sling. When the weather was in the teens and below there were times when I was just using my elbow-hand and the area had to constantly be in motion or up high for relief. Not fun,not fun at all.

Post by: Tresbn00 on February 15, 2018, 05:45:59 pm: Lack of freedom to a higher degree. There are times where I just want to pick up and leave but remember that I have two kids in college that depend on me; two and a half well paying jobs that smolder out without me, a fifty year old jeep that is hard to start if she isn't loved everyday, two golden retrievers that look to me for their morning and evening walks, fusioncash (yep) and several other streams that need daily visits. Even getting away for a weekend is near impossible. I was sick for a week and it will take me two weeks to get caught up. I got back yesterday on the one job and had over one hundred and sixty e-mails. I had given thought to letting the night time job know that I am cleared to work again but I have been enjoying the small freedom and am hoping to whittle down the number of posts I need to catch up on!

I have a feeling your mot that old.... might i ask what your idea of old is ? I'm turning 60 next month and for me it's also boredom and lack of friends but I'm stuck at home and not by choice.
