Really Medicare!?

Oh wow! In just two weeks I will officially be on Medicare. I already feel old enough but then I receive THIS packet in the mail. Yep! Assisted devices catalog. I am not taking this sitting down. Not I. For the past two years I have really started working very hard on myself. After seeing what my elderly parents go through in their later years, I'm not thinking that is what I want for myself. I've been really working on strength, balance, endurance, and mental health. I feel blessed that I've reached this far in life and I'm not going to take it for granted. I've been working hard at this because I want to enjoy what's left of my life the best way I can. 

I don't know if any of you have ever watched the very popular show called "The Golden Girls," but it's always been a favorite of mine. I really believe that the golden girls of today are much different than they were back then. I'm not ready for baggy clothes and that dowdy look. I believe we can be fit and healthy at any age. I'm looking ahead with an adventurous spirit. Who’s with me on this?

I recently came across a hiking challenge and I am pumped! Hiking has always been my favorite activity. I'm lucky enough to live by The Indiana Dunes and they have trails from easy strolls to rugged like Trail 8, also known as the 3 Dune Challenge. Here are a few links you might enjoy. One is for the 3 dune challenge, and the other is for the Spring Hiking Challenge, and you can live anywhere to do it.

With all that said, I will still take advantage of my senior discount!

  1. Be ever so cautious of that medicare card and number and all the scammers out there. Medicare will never call you. Good job staying fit. Don't forget to get a supplemental ASAP. Find an insurance broker who will go over all the different types of plans. I loved that the Golden Girls were having a fun life and not sitting at home. Their style, well...it is what it is. ;)

    1. I see that now. When I saw the anonymous, I thought what a nice comment from Anonymous. It usually doesn't go that way.
