Turned 60 last September. There is no plan to retire because there is no money and I do mean that literally. We operate at a deficit.  My wife can't find a job that pays more and I fear she is about to be passed over for the one position that seemed the best possibility only a week ago.  Our retirement plan consists of:  my wife outliving me (I've maintaiined a life insurance policy, she let hers lapse and hasn't replaced) OR winning the lottery OR, me outliving my mother and her not outliving her assets. Given the above I am not sure why I made such an effort to achieve a level of fitness and general "health" in the last 23 months (down 90 pounds, normal BP and cholesterol and A1C) but I was tired of seeing myself at 275 and I figure "live fast, die young, leave a good looking corpse": I can now achieve the last, at least. Being over 60 all my friends seem to speak of is our weight and whatever medical issue or test result comes down the pike.  It's pretty boring frankly.

I love the sound of lovely Una Mae Carlisle’s voice and her phrasing. I wish someone would look deep inside the Columbia vaults. . . I bet there is more to discover there. Una Mae Carlisle “1944 - 1950” Chronogical Classics cd
