Edith

I am an artist, web designer and mother, and now grandmother! My background is in creative arts and teaching and education. This blog is about how to creatively approach your later years; staying healthy to make the most of your senior life; and about how to discover exciting things to do and be as your children depart your home and you find yourself kicking about with less to do but nonetheless having to work longer than expected for that State pension. It is all about how to manage the gap between expecting your pension and actually getting it. If you are not dependent on the state pension, whenever it comes, then you will find ideas here about how to occupy yourself during and after middle age. This blog aims to give you pointers, inspiring ideas and exciting possibilities, without necessarily having to merely go on a cruise!
