Aren’t You Glad You’re Old? Is dedicated to all people considered in the old age category. In less than fifteen years, people over 65 will outnumber those under the age of 18. With these statistics, come changes – a demographic shift that poses a set of challenges not seen before. Since we are all living longer, it is up to us to find a way to relax and enjoy our later years. One way is to find humor in most situations. Marie writes about some of her humorous situations and hopes you find her personal essays amusing enough to bring a laugh or smile to your life. And as a true librarian, after each essay she recommends a book that will add more information to the topic.
