On the topic of online games,
I play some match 3 games that are meant for children.I really enjoy them.Some of them has background music,some say good job,excellent, well done when you win.I totally become a kid while playing.After a while I feel silly and switch to games that are meant for grown ups.Games that are mentally stimulating.Sudoku, puzzles, scrabble things like that.I find myself constantly switching between these two phases.As if I am being a child for sometime and then being an adult for sometime.Anybody relate to this?Is this part of trying to soothe my inner child?I am trying to do the things that I couldn't as a child?I can feel a great deal of relief when I play those child appropriate games on line. |

Goldie Hawn was one of my favorites on Laugh In, which was one of my favorite shows as a kid.
I don't play games for kids but I watch cartoons I grew up with, like Bugs Bunny and Tom and Jerry. Not only funny no matter how many times I've seen them, but they make me feel....for a little while, like a kid again. With no responsibilities and stress an adult gets. __________________ Call me "owl" for short! Hmmm....looks like some good tips in here. "Okay, enough photos.

I haven't watched any cartoons lately, but I think I'd enjoy the humor in some of them I also liked as a child, such as "The Bullwinkle and Rocky Show."

Has anyone tried or is a member of a walking group for seniors? (Be it from your local senior center, recreational center, informal neighborhood group, whatnot?)
I've gone a few times with the group from my local senior center. They have just one group, not multiple ones for different fitness levels.(Not enough staff for that.....) The guy leading it can't be older than 25. The walks are way too long for me, and I think from now on I'll have to turn back at the halfway point and walk back alone. The whole point of it is to not to be alone while walking. It's also getting too hot, and there's so much concrete, asphalt and little shade. Busy intersections, traffic, and signals all the time. Not a leisurely walk by any means. Last time I went it nearly killed me. 2 hours of walking, with just one break of about 15 minutes. After that it took me literally 24 hours to recover. It was miserable, being that exhausted and sore. I have to work up to that amount of time, but there's really no nice places to walk around here anyway. There's a different route each time but I haven't seen much of anything not seen before. And there's tents everywhere now. __________________ Call me "owl" for short!
