“I am still determined to be cheerful and happy in whatever situation I may be, for I have also learned from experience that the greater part of our happiness or misery depends on our dispositions and not on our circumstances.” ~ Martha Washington
When I turned 50 I very reluctantly filled out my AARP membership papers. This I did after Stacy pointed out the error of my not wanting to do it naturally, what with their incredible discounts all over the Universe. She was right, of course. So, I sent in my check and I waited, and I waited, and I waited. My card never came. AARP didn’t get the check, and I didn’t bother with it anymore until one day last month when the opportunity presented itself again. I’ll be 52 in January. I’ve got a lot of repairs coming due on my house next year (I’ll have been here 10 years in May), so those amazing discounts on everything from car rental to movies are looking pretty good. Guess what showed up in the mail today? Bring on the discounts. This ‘ol lady is ready!
