Concerned About Growing Old?

Ernest Tubb and Red Foley - love that old-timey music, especially now that I'm an old-timer. Thanks for this old gem.

This is great! (and true)

Most of my friends, DH, and many relatives are all dead now, so joining them doesn't seem such a bad prospect. I want to avoid leaving any homeless pets in my wake when I go, and I definitely plan to avoid becoming victim to the medical industrial complex by ending up in a nursing home without any personal autonomy and/or losing all my resources to medical bankruptcy. At 74 yrs I am basically crowbait, but still have a few years ahead that I plan to spend in the realm of the living.

IMHO Your thinking is very healthy therefore, so is mine

My only worry is my cat, it may be possible he will outlive me plus the outdoor cat.

I haven't had a holiday in to many years to remember but my family must think I have a good survival chance because they're planning a holiday of a lifetime for me a year and half ahead

by funny chance last night i was talking to Mom about a dessert we used to make once in a while out of crushed Heath bars and whipped cream (mixed together) and then put on layered Lady Fingers. fridge it for a few hours and it's ready to go. Mom makes something close enough to Heath bars that we could do an almost fully homemade version, but i don't think either of us really are interested in doing all of that these days.
