OCTOBER YEARS and November too - a writers blog. THRIVING IN LATE LIFE- -. Friday, June 5, 2015. October connecting - It's a new world. Hey there, October friends. Welcome to the twenty-first century. You’ve heard the news, haven’t you? We live in a new and “connected” age. Obviously you’re connected enough to be online. That’s how you’re reading this. But beyond that, how connected are you? Have you become one of those social media types? So far we’ve been able to bite our tongue in the face of ou...

OCTOBER YEARS & November too - a writer's blog: March 2015

OCTOBER YEARS and November too - a writers blog. THRIVING IN LATE LIFE- -. Saturday, March 28, 2015. Happily ever-after - or not. Consider for a moment, how adaptable are you? Are you the kind who could start over with someone new? Could you risk another relationship? Not everyone can or wants to do that. Yet those are not rhetorical questions for the October seniors I write about- -the ones considering the prospect of a new life with a new partner. Can there ever be “another time” for them? Lately howev...

OCTOBER YEARS & November too - a writer's blog: Beware, IT is lurking in the shadows, waiting to impose its will

OCTOBER YEARS and November too - a writers blog. THRIVING IN LATE LIFE- -. Tuesday, July 14, 2015. Beware, IT is lurking in the shadows, waiting to impose its will. I’ve made the point before. Our October Years. Are a time of change. Just think how crazy it gets sometimes. Is this what we imagined when we first looked forward to our calm, quiet, and hopefully eventful Golden Years? Raised it’s ugly head. A time or two it even spilled out into a rented storage space. That was all well and good until IT.

OCTOBER YEARS & November too - a writer's blog: February 2015

OCTOBER YEARS and November too - a writers blog. THRIVING IN LATE LIFE- -. Tuesday, February 24, 2015. October relationships are something different. Without thinking twice I realized that I would be telling “relational” stories. I know, of course, that’s not what everyone calls them. But I prefer that label to the other possibility - “romance.” After all, what kind of seventy-some year-old guy admits to writing “romances”? In the end I always settle for “relational.”. As you can imagine the October edit...

OCTOBER YEARS & November too - a writer's blog: Darn it folks, be careful out there
http://octoberyears.blogspot.com/2015/06/darn-it-folks-be-careful-out-there.html
OCTOBER YEARS and November too - a writers blog. THRIVING IN LATE LIFE- -. Monday, June 15, 2015. Darn it folks, be careful out there. The truth of course is highlighted by the sobering fact that mature or not, at age 78 I can no longer do some things that I once did. Most everything else I don’t do as well as before. Perhaps it’s a guy thing. He had reason to believe that I knew what to do and how to do it safely. True, the window was large- -six feet by six feet, and heavy too- -a bigger job than I nor...

OCTOBER YEARS and November too - a writers blog. THRIVING IN LATE LIFE- -. Sunday, November 23, 2014. The making of an October hero. It was a video clip I posted last week about end-of-life issues, the ones we would prefer to avoid, that reminded me of Leona Peck’s harsh Alzheimer’s trials in Best Friends and Promises. After all, if I am writing to please myself, why not tell it the way I want? In fact, Best Friends and Promises. For fifteen minutes Aaron hurried from aisle to aisle, looking desperately ...

Gifts Of The Journey. The Fearless Pursuit Of A Life Worth Living. The Write About Love Project. Home or Away – Where Are You Going? May 12, 2014. When I first met my husband on a UK dating site, my contact name, ‘ Reaching for Skye’ was something John thought was funny since he was living 800 miles away in Cornwall, England. With his second email came this question, ‘ You do know Cornwall is a long way from the Isle of Skye, right? That said, a few days ago I received a quiz as. John handles our camping...

Gifts Of The Journey. The Fearless Pursuit Of A Life Worth Living. The Write About Love Project. Category Archives: Life in General. Lisa Taylor Huff – A Bold Soul. July 9, 2015. Before I decided to begin a blog of my own, I spent several years following the blogs of others. One of the very first had a snappy title and a focus that appealed to me and I was hooked from the beginning. It wasn’t long before Lisa was in Paris and in the time it would take most people to settle in, she’d met and married Georg...
