Subject: RE: BS: Indignities of Aging: the Sordid Truth
I am still trying to decide whether I am pleased that clerks now give me the 'senior discount' without asking.

   I think the most frustrating aspect of aging (so far) is sleep problems. I can't be sure how much of it is physical and how much is mental turmoil over schedules, finances, etc...but I don't get to sleep easily, I don't stay asleep long enough, and I suffer more from lack of sleep than I used to.

(Fortunately, I do NOT have to get up several times a night to pee! Yet.)

oh..for reference, I'll be 68 in several weeks.

and for what it's worth, I think the last 10 years of organizing my thoughts on Mudcat have been good for me generally.
