Well folks, I've just turned the ripe young age of 65 (I don't feel that old, but my bio says otherwise). I am still working hard (which is much better than hardly working), and will continue to do so until I finally decide to retire after age 70 (or, if the company, which one blogger refers to as The Beast, decides to retire me).
I don't know about where y'all are, but here in Michigan, there are countless numbers of food establishments that offer free food on or around one's birthday. So far, I've had a free gourmet hamburger (Red Robin), free pancakes (IHOP), free wings (Buffalo Wild Wings), a free small pizza (a local chain named Dolly's), and free ice cream (Baskin-Robbins). And there's still more to go - next week, I'll have a free entree at a downtown Detroit restaurant (Detroit Beer Company), another free gourmet hamburger (Fuddruckers), a free bagel & cream cheese (Einsteins), and a free Krispy Kreme donut! And the week following that, there's a free sandwich at Panera, a free snack at a Tex-Mex chain (Qdoba), and a free stir-fry dinner at Mongolian Barbeque! YUMM! YUMM! Yogi Bear never had it so good!
However, never fear - I am doing extra exercising (especially Zumba) to take off some of those insidious calories! And, I'm even more heavily into the game of Pickleball.
