If you're 60 or older, come join me. Let's talk, hang out, tease and support each other.
 
Hi y'all,
I'd love to talk to you silver-fox butches, femmes and FTM's (or those elders of other persuasions.) I'm over sixty and feel great most of the time. I have lots of energy and lots of dreams I still hope to achieve. I also have times of sadness and pain. I'd like to have someone in my age group to talk these things over with.

Care to join me?
Many Smooches,
Keri

Hello Keri,how r u doing? Im over 60 slowly geting more of a silver fox every day,been told I should dye my hair to atract women cause id look younger than I already do..I keep telling them that age is like good wine...only gets better with time.

Greco 08-22-2010 08:02 PM

Silver, Grey, the best is yet to come...
 
Definitely agree with you there Rockinonahigh, no need for dyed
hair...what has challenged us in life is what has defined us, so
the silver is golden!

Best, Greco

Hi, I just re-found this forum. Joined in January and promptly forgot all about it, so I have no idea yet how to navigate my way around in here. Hope you all will start up a thread for women over 50. We're really infinitely more interesting than our younger sisters and have come to a point where we've learned some of the critical lessons in life (well, some of us). Please include me in your posts.
I need to finish my profile and add a photo -- being just old enough to be frazzled by all this high tech stuff that won't accept a pic over such and such pixels. Anyone on the east coast? I dye my hair cause it makes me feel good and I'm sticking to that story.

Hello fellow older chatters

Jude 08-23-2010 07:26 PM

Thank you. I'll try to follow both. Someone suggested a chat room for people over 50. I'm in if it flies. Perhaps a regular meeting day and time, at least at first? Whole lot of topics that just aren't shared by our younger sisters and brothers. New opportunities, new problems.... would be terrific to have a discussion group.

iamkeri1 09-18-2010 07:13 PM

Good eventide to all you wise elders. S'up?
Smooches,
Keri

Rockinonahigh 09-18-2010 07:55 PM

Hi Keri.well what am I up to...lets see.Yesterday I went to the last of my rehab visits, so they say for my back .The therapist said I was doing just fine but need to keep doing the exersises he gave me to do,then gave me more to do for the mid back.My appointment with the sergons is late next month,acording to rehab all I need is the right kind of help to get over the last bit of work keeping my back stronger (core muscels).I doubt any surgery is needed but may end up with the shots to block some nerves..ouch!Its never going to be like it was before but atleast better and I will be able to do more than I have in a long time.
Then I did fur kid laudry today,gave them a bath ect,ect.I swear they take as much or more time then the two legged kids I have.Oh, I am suposed to get an appointment with the elder affairs office sometimes next week about some work..paper work and such,but I have no clue as to what is on there minds cause I was just glad to hear they finaly got me something if only part time.
Today was a beautful day,sunshine but a bit warm,come on summer give it up
its time for fall.

Blade 09-18-2010 07:57 PM

If I'm lucky and the good Lord lets me live 12 more years I'll be back:hangloose:

socialjustice_fsu 09-18-2010 08:49 PM

I think this is a wonderful thread...
 
I am 51 and I believe the best is yet to come. Although I am about 9 years from 60 I look forward to every year I age...because 'that' birthday means I am still here! I have spent many years learning, taking a step forward, two backwards, and always landed on my feet when I took a great leap of faith. I find now that I can apply all those experiences and life only gets sweeter and sweeter. I see things through a different lens now. Day by day I continue to have those 'aha' moments when all things in the physical and supernatural world seem to come together. And...mostly for the greater good. I am no way ready to close this book of life. Now is the time to really LIVE. To FEEL. To SEE. To LOVE with no restrictive conditions. I am now simply an older woman with more experience and I would not choose to rewind or fast forward the tape of life. I do find the posts so far on this thread as insightful, needed, and validating.

I would really like a discussion/chat group for us!!

I love our younger cohorts here, but, yes, sometimes we just have things going on that are age related.

Jude 09-19-2010 01:50 PM

Discussion Group for Grownups??????????????

Hi AtLast. Following you with interest on the other thread. I'm a very new member and still haven't figured out how all this works (pea brain here), so suggesting that you or some other more senior member set up a time and secure a chat room and let's just do it once and see if we all have a great time and see how many people show up.

Maybe anyone else interested contact me directly and I'll be sure you're notified.

Time/Date: What about an evening around 7 est. That would be 10 p.m. out west, 9 in the mountains and 8 central. Most people are up those times.

We do have very specific topics -- retirement, travel, finances, entertainment and adventure, aspirations (what we're looking for in life at this stage)............

I'd love to participate. Thanks for your enthusiasm.

lipstixgal 09-19-2010 02:30 PM

Confused.

Rockinonahigh 10-26-2010 05:12 PM

Over the last fue weeks I have been leting my hair grow...now dont anyone have a panic attack,after really short hair for years I desided to grow it longer so now its almost down to my coller so by next spring it should have filled out and gotten the deep waves it use to have.Short featherd back on the sides...full on top so the waves will come on..the same in the back...prolly going to get about a tad longer than shoulder length is what im looking for.What superised me is how much silver im geting and where..like 1 1/2inch wide strips and as long as its growing,looking pretty good I think.

Just wanted to say "Happy day" to all of you. Its beautiful here in the sunshine state. The temp is a little cooler than normal at this time of year, and the sun is VERY bright. Just the kind of weather that drew me to Fla. in the first place.

I am winging my way to Las Vegas this weekend, to celebrate my birthday and to meet for the first time in person someone who has become, well let's just say 'Important" in my life. Scary, exciting, ... scary, exciting. I feel both of those things strongly. Life continues to bestow new blessings upon me and I am very grateful for them.

As I look at the calendar, I just can not believe that it is November. This has been the fastest year! Slow down, time!

Sunny smooches to you all
Keri

vabzee 11-10-2010 01:13 PM

Yeah Keri
 
Take the risk and have a good time. You know how to be careful and you know nothing can happen if you don't take a leap or jump or whatever.

It's Christmas/holiday season right now. Many of us Elder folk find ourselves alone at this time. I want to wish you all a wonderful holiday season. Let's spend some time talking to each other. Let's bring some love and support in to each others lives.

Here's my story. Christmas has been pretty awful for me since my darling died unexpectedly three days after Christmas in 2003. We had adopted four kids and the oldest was 15 when he died. we began to change some of our family traditions because doing things we had always done was so painful without him. We always opened presents on Christmas eve, which we still do, but Christmas day was a lazy day where we re-examined all our gifts, played with new toys and watched sappy old christmas movies together, while working together to make a fantastic Christmas dinner. Now what we do on CHristmas days is to go to one of the many dinner shows in Orlando. Each year it seems that someone has a "half off" special, and that seems to guide us to the show we will see that year, LOL!!

This has become something that we look forward to, and it relieves us of the strain of cooking at all on Christmas day. Usually we have a friend or two from out of town, which helps to provide a distaction. Last year my friend from Michigan came to visit and we had a ball baking cookies all day until it was time to go to the show. The kids followed the sit around and watch Christmas movie tradition, and every once in a while would slip in to the kitchen to steal more cookies!!! It was a wonder we could eat at all when it came time to go to the dinner show.

This year we are going to the magic show at WonderWorks in Orlando. We are all looking forward to it. A "new" tradition that is likely to stick with them long after they have families of their own!!

Also this year, I have a new love in my life. We will not be able to spend the holidays together as we live across the continent from each other, but we will talk a lot, and dream of sharing a home together by this time next year. Life can still bring you miracles!!!

How are all you other oldies doing during the holidays?

Mistletoe Smooches,
Keri

iamkeri1 12-25-2010 01:02 PM

Merry Christmas Everyone!

The kids and I are going to Orlando tonight. We're going to the dinner show - a magic show - at Wonderworks. I'm looking forward to it.

Hope y'all are doing something fun today,
Hugs and smooches,
Keri

cinderella 03-15-2011 02:56 PM

Hi there younguns!
 
I turned 68 last December. Most times I feel 19, but today - and alot lately - I'm feeling tired. But, I think it's emotional. I am - at this late stage of the game - travelling to TX to meet my sweetie for the first time. I had totatally given up, and never dreamed this would ever happen to me again, but, there you have it! When you least expect it, that ol' rascal cupid is up to his old tricks! So hey, if it can happen to me, it can happen to anyone! Cheers, silver foxes and diamond doyenes, Hope springs eternal, so keep the chins up! lol

I hope much success to this thread. I will be popping in from time to time.

Would love to discuss what/how those of you who are retired are enjoying it, or how you're feeling about it. Totally retired? Semi-retired? Or still honing away at that grindstone?

And you are such an adorable crone in that hat!!! You know I love hats!

Great to see you here A L. I'd love to here more about the dances you were talking about in the Saturday night thread. Do you know how they got started?

Smooches,
Keri
