Aloha gypsy69!
Pretty sure EVERYONE here is getting older all the time, right along with the rest of the world.
Here's what we do as the years sneak up on us:
1) Swim. It's easy on the "old legs" and chance of injury minimal. It's great exercise and relaxing, keeps the blood pressure down too. We swim together in the morning as often as we can, usually 5-7 days/week.
2) Read. Currently working through Einstein's biography and thoroughly enjoying it. Got a stack of books on my kindle when I'm done with Einstein. (A reading group would be fun, but getting the right mix of people isn't always easy.)
3) Write: anyone can set up a blog in a couple minutes. My ramblings are typically business/culture related. The beauty of a blog is you can choose to write whatever the hell you want.
4) Play guitar. I suck but it's fun, and I do it alone so no humans are harmed in the process.
5) Walk. I've learned to dig walking, not because of the walking itself, but because it creates a nice opportunity to converse with my wife without interruptions. We have some of our best chats during our walks.
6) Work. Self-employed and love my job. Never want to stop working.
7) The best time spent is hanging with family and friends. We socialize with likeminded people, including our son and his friends. (Thankfully they are all dancers and entertainers, so we throw the best parties in the neighborhood!)
