I CANNOT believe I turn 55 today. 55 was my magical number to……
I remember when growing up, to me 55 was the magic number for old age, retirement, etc. they even taught us that way in school.

So, today I sit and turn 55, my magical number to stop the rat race and just watch other rats race now but, life doesn’t always work out like ya expect (duh).

I’m still raising my grandson (13) and literally taking care of my 75 year old dad like he’s a kid. I’m working harder now then ever.

One positive is that I look younger than I really am. I get that alot and I’m staying physically fit and agile with the work I do.

I live in the middle of a 10 acre, dense woods. So, I have brush and trees and log splitting etc.


Are there any perks, discounts, benefit out in the world that you are able to tap into when you turn 55?

Thanks ahead for any suggestions you give!!!!!
NO! My name is NOT spelled wrong. Grab a dictionary.
Peace, Love & Prayers
God bless America
And YES. I am a nurse!

SIDE NOTE- I find articles everywhere and post what I think GLP would like to know.
I do not necessarily believe or endorse some articles I find.
So do not bash the messenger

You are officially a SENIOR CITIZEN.

Wife and I are in our seventies.
When I tell her, "We're Elderly",
she flips out.

I tell her the Bible only gives us
three score and ten,
so we're in the bonus round.

BTW, time will begin to accelerate
for you, from here on OUT.

Ever see a movie where the calendar pages
start flying off the calendar?

It's like that, only faster.

Well, you can officially retire and receive stipend insufficient to fuel your car. Might get a discount at the theatre, but that's it.

To make yourself feel young, volunteer at a retirement villa. You will receive many "young lady" comments. Hell, you might even get groped.

At any rate, your profile pic looks 40's, so keep doing whatever you're doing.

Happy birthday!! I hope you enjoy your special day and know that you look better than many people half your age! Age is just a number, so don't let the number bother you, based on preconceived notions you had about that number growing up! Enjoy!

Happy birthday, Today's my birthday as well: 51, and my brother turns 55 this Thursday. I also live on Ohio, just north of Vandalia, and happen to know another girl who I've known over 40 years that shares a Sep 20th birthday. In fact every time I see her working at CVS she always messes with me about knowing my birthday when looking up any Rx.

So why are you raising your grandson since you brought it up ? Shouldn't mother and fathers be doing that?

It definitely isn't as old as it used to be. I used to think people in their 50's were old, until I became one of them.

1. Taco Bell sometimes gives you a 10% discount. I never ask for it.

2. You'll soon be (if you aren't already) getting crap from AARP, telling you about the many "benefits" they want to sell you on. Benefits that aren't free, benefits that I neither need nor want.

3. Happy birfday!

I'm 78 and run marathons, climb high mountains and swim the English Channel once a week.

I dive the great barrier reef and hike across Australia, just for fun.

Last week I hiked the length of the Grand Canyon and next week I'm doing the Appalachian Trail.

55 is the new 35.
Keep your health as a priority, so later you have the ability to do what you have wanted to do at 55.

Keep your good spirit, you are a wonderful person to take care of your family.
