Embracing the New Old

We've still got it. Parts of us may be moving south but they're still working. In many ways, we are healthier, smarter, more independent, more financially savvy and more hip than we were when we were in our thirties (and forties). We're the New Old. I'm a Geezer Chick and proud of it.

The French always knew that older women are better. They have great expressions like women of a certain age, women with elan and joie de vivre. There hasn't been a suitable moniker for American women who aren't going gently into this good night. We are boogying, learning new languages, trekking the world and working and living hard.

So, my dear friends. Let us embrace being Geezer Chicks. Let's take back the night from those who would consign us to early bird dinners and park benches. We've got, we'll flaunt it and we'll redefine geezer to suit our our definition of a great new age. No one's done aging quite like us. We're defining this new quantrant of life. Geezer Guys-- you are welcome to join us... if you can keep up.

Meanwhile, I'm heading out to yoga class. Catch me if you can. Better yet, write me and let's get a Geezer gab-fest going.

Geezer chicks of world, unite!
