Welcome to OLDISMS
Getting older gives you better material.
Remember when we talked about weekend plans? Now it’s rain gauges, mower problems, gas prices, hummingbirds and what the neighbors are up to. And somehow, it’s just as entertaining.

A little about the idea
Not laughing at getting older. Laughing together.
OLDISMS is a collection of simple, relatable observations about the conversations and habits we pick up along the way. It’s for retirees, couples, grandparents, neighbors and anyone who’s ever gotten excited about a good rain.
Nothing mean-spirited. Nothing political. Just a good laugh and sometimes a fond memory.
At some point, “How much rain did you get?” becomes a perfectly good conversation starter.
