50 Days until 50: Day 28

June 1, 2020

I got an AARP membership application and I don’t know how to feel about it

Really? I’m going to be a member of AARP (I’m joining, they have good benefits). I wasn’t expecting this until about 60-65, but I googled what age you can join AARP and 50 popes up.

Although I recently found out that there’s really no age limit to join, (they send invitations to join in the month you turn 50) the image of white haired people playing canasta at a Florida resort still comes to mind.

Receiving the AARP membership invite serves as a reminder that I am approaching the last few years of my life. If I live to be 100, I’m almost half way there.

Dramatic I know but it’s funny what these few letters invoke in me. I guess I need to learn how to play canasta.
