Snack and Learn Hearing Education Seminar on August 8th at 1:00pm, presented by Audiology Concierge.

Join us on August 7th at 12:45 for the hysterical Movie: Wild Hogs that came out in 2007 starring Tim Allen, John Travolta, Martin Lawrence and William H. Macy. The movie is about “a group of middle-aged friends who decide to rev up their routine suburban lives with a freewheeling motorcycle trip. Taking a long dreamed-of breather from their stressful jobs and family responsibilities, they can’t wait to feel the freedom of the open road. When this mismatched foursome, who have grown far more used to the couch than the saddle, set out for this once-in-a-lifetime experience, they encounter a world that holds far more than they ever bargained for. The trip begins to challenge their wits and their luck, especially during a chance run-in with the Del Fuegos, a real-life biker gang who are less than amused with their novice approach. As they go looking for adventure, they soon find that they’ve embarked on a journey they will never forget.”

Do we wait too long?

To look….

At ourselves and see ourselves as we really are? Not as we still think we are.

Our housing and does it fit the life we will live in the future? Will we age well and safely where we are?

Our income? Do we have enough? Will the money last or will we outlive our savings?

Our own fragility? How will we manage and cope? When will we speak up and say I’m no longer safe on my own?

We have a tendency to wait too long to “live” as well. We say, “We’ll travel when we retire”, “We’ll downsize and move when we retire”, “Oh, I’ll figure that out after I retire”

Let’s revisit all of that. Let’s start planning today how we will live our lives to the fullest. Don’t put things off. Make modifications to your home as the years go by. Have most of it done before you retire. Start traveling as soon as the kids are independent and some of your money is freed up. Travel while you are healthy and able to. It’s a whole lot more fun to explore the world before you experience health issues.

Start now thinking about what you’ll do each day, all day once you are not working. You’ll have a lot of hours and days to fill up. Do you want to learn new skills? Watch your grandchildren? Volunteer and where will you volunteer? Find a new job? Start a new career?

Don’t wait too long. Life can pass us by. We can only wish once those days and years are behind us. Live life to the fullest and start that living right now!!
