Fifty and Over Experiences

October 25, 2017 By Meegan 14 Comments

It is interesting to be writing about my Fifty and Over Experiences. Especially, since I am almost 60. Well, I turned 59 three months ago. Does that count as almost 60?

Last year, around this time, I wrote a similar post. It is fascinating to go back and read my thoughts. Even though it was just a year ago. My perspective has changed, matured and I have much clearer view of what I want my life to be.

Staying Healthy Over Fifty

December 13, 2016 By Meegan 3 Comments

I am 50+ with an active lifestyle, including walking, swimming and working out in our pool. I keep healthy and strong by eating well. I also shy away from processed foods, which is also a great help. Staying Healthy Over Fifty has been a quick and necessary life style change for us.

Two years ago, my husband had an emergency quadruple by-pass. This was both scary and eye opening for both of us. You see, he has been active for years, not only as a championship high school referee, but also as a bicyclist.

When You are Fifty and Over

September 14, 2016 By Meegan 16 Comments

It is funny how time rolls on. Some days seem really fast and other times months seem like years. The past few years have gone by really fast for me. And before I realized it I am heading towards 60 really quick. Wow….When You are Fifty and Over…

For me, I look at it like 50 is the new 30. And 60 is the new 40. Even though I am older than 50, I am capable of doing pretty much everything I did when I was that age. Probably even better, now.

I mean, really, would YOU want to go back to your teens and 20s? Not me. AT ALL. I am so much smarter, wiser, experienced and self-confident. Don’t get me wrong. I still make mistakes. I still have problems arise, and I still have a lot to learn.
