All the articles this month are a MUST READ! First, let's just say it...should we all retire? Is it really best for our sense of wellbeing? I went to hear a lady speak who owned a large and successful company that supplies vegetables. Her newsletter content was so great that I read it each month! Recently she shared this story about her mom, who founded the company and she is STILL a go-getter and working at "96!" . Next, the subject of finding friends after the age of 60 may seem a bit of challenge. Gone are days of soccer and school musicals and all the parent involvement. Meaningful personal relationships stave off Alzheimer's. It's a fact. Read more here about combating loneliness.

On to Fall!
