It’s a fact these days that the Baby Boom generation — which consists of those born between 1945 and 1964 — is getting older as each year passes by. And more people within that age group are finding that all of the crazy stunts they pulled when they were younger is beginning to affect how they feel physically, though they don’t let possible health problems impact housework, as a matter of fact.

And this phenomenon — in which they continue to accept that aging doesn’t mean slowing down — is actually a positive sign, for it is the person who gives in to minor aches and pains that begins to age the most. Even those who may need knee or hip replacements, or who just have leg arthritis — trying hard not to let such problems affect their ability to get around the house.

This doesn’t mean that there’s going to be some pandemic of helpless cripples in the country in the next few decades, though. If there’s one thing we know about Boomers it’s that they refuse to go quietly into that good, good night and that’s an admirable trait they bring to the discussion. What it does mean is that they’ll need to be realistic about certain things, however.

For example, it can become very easy to let housework slide if someone’s looking at their Dyson upright vacuum cleaner — to use a popular housework tool — and is also feeling a twinge or two in their knees, hips and ankles. However, those pains can be managed with a little bit of attention to not only pain relief but also weight loss and exercise of a certain type.

That’s why it’s a good idea to refuse to look at any age as being the time to go and sit out on the porch and watch the world go by. What this really does is cause you to begin to ‘rust’ in a way. This is so, even when certain aches or pains might begin to convince one that it’s time to pack it in. That’s probably when it’s more important than ever to keep moving, to be honest.

And if vacuuming the house isn’t one’s cup of tea, consider heading out to the garage and breaking out the garden vacuums that once were a regular part of keeping the backyard and the garden looking good. A recent movie by the 79-year-old actor Clint Eastwood depicted him mowing his lawn and working in his garden, which was quite lush and obviously well tended, so take heart.

What people need to keep in mind with all of this is that sitting on the couch all day or convincing one’s self that growing old means slowing down greatly just isn’t the way to go. Keep an active life with a positive outlook and there’ll be no end to the ability to go about keeping the housework going even in the face of health problems, for a fact.

So yes it is that time of year again, it’s my birthday. But this year I am forty and I am really feeling it. I never pictured myself at forty and it is scary. I shyly look in the mirror and find a grey hair. It’s my first present of the day, how wonderful.

Making my way to the kitchen a feel my body creaking and I ponder if leg arthritis is beginning. Yes this is the beginning of the end. I saw my future next week retiring with my cane because I could no longer walk or hold a job down.

I go through my usual day of getting the kids off to school and then drive down the road to work in a slight drizzle. Great, as I think to myself, a perfect addition to my mood; rain. As I get to my office I think what a great day it is to walk in the rain from my parking spot to the building and why I bothered even doing my hair.

As I get to the office there are some festive balloons in my office surrounded by the proverbial over the hill you are 40 giant balloons that I get to stare at all day. They mean well, but it sure doesn’t add to my mood of feeling over the hill. So I delve into the cake they got me at lunch and think to myself why not, I’ll take the calories I’m over the hill anyway.

By the afternoon I am in a basic state of depression and mourning my youth when I see my phone ID spark Lisa’s name as it rings. I pick it up knowing that she will be having fun teasing me since she is after all two years younger than me. But she is not her usual self and the teasing has a bit of sadness to it.

She tries not to cry but I want to know what is wrong as she tells me, ‘I’m so sorry to tell you this today, but I just found out I have breast cancer and I really need a friend right now.’ After hearing this devastating news I feel awful. Here I am in my pity party of one and my best friend just got the worst news of her life. As I console her and tell her it is going to be okay I am slapping myself for being such a selfish idiot.

How could I let my thoughts go so far in the negative? I am so blessed to have what I have and how could I dare complain. What is a little wrinkle when I have my health? So as I get home I rush into the house and hug my kids and my husband and realize just how blessed I truly am.
