Hard Truths for Older Ladies

This advice may sound cranky and a little harsh but it’s for your own good. From one older lady to another.
 
  • Gunk crusts your microwave and your fridge and your countertop. It’s not because you’re a slob. It’s because you trust your eyes. Instead, trust a damp dishcloth daily. Or a professional cleaning service. Unless you want to gross out your granddaughters.
  • People with full dentures are not as happy as you think. They worry about smiling and eating which exhausts their good humor. So brush, floss, see your dentist, and replace missing teeth. You won’t miss the money.
  • Your long-time friends will die and you’ll be lonely. So make younger friends now. You’ll need to tolerate their tedious complaints about menopause and marriage. But they will visit more often than your son.
