On Being Old (with Acceptance and Gratitude) is a true story of how three friends happened to get together after many years of total separation from each other. Mary Jo, Nadine, and Sam took up right where they left off, talking and laughing, questioning and filling each other in about their lives. They discussed the feelings that come with aging, the fears, and the physical changes. They communicated more honestly than in their younger days and covered topics that they had not in the past.

Read this heartwarming collection of personal stories, from three totally different people with totally different views on most subjects, and perhaps you will identify with one of the characters and find a path and companionship into yourself as they did.

Reviews

Darryl Silva

"I read it and enjoyed it. It was a great take on the big issues everyone deals with. It’s funny – there was a section where you thought of yourself as still adolescent at one point in your life, but when you worked for me you brought such mature leadership that spread throughout the program to others. I remember walking you to the elevator on 12/12/12 and can’t believe that was nine years ago."

Shana Campbell

"Timing is everything! A much needed look into “The good old life.” With my mom’s outlook on life lately, she has made aging look unbearable. While her diminished mental capacities play into it, I didn’t realize how much I needed some positive motherly insight and guidance. Your three takes on the aging game helped more than you will know. Can’t tell you how much I needed to see joy and acceptance of this natural process and am grateful you all have kept mentally healthy to write this charming, sincere, insightful book. Thank You."

Dianne Patterson

"I really enjoyed this book. The honesty and humor are so refreshing! I saw myself in many of your thoughts and stories and love the graphics and quotations that introduced each chapter. The book is full of good advice for us seniors but my favorite is chapter 8, The Philosophy of Life. You ladies have shown that there is more than one way to make this journey. You should take pride in a job well done!"

"Judie and I both read this book and loved it. Of course, being a good friend of one of the writers helped. Her memories were the best. However, with all the stories and remembrances we were able to bring back similar thoughts to our past. It can be hard growing old and sometimes all we have is the memories. But, we did enjoy them as they came and reminded us of all the good times we had growing up with such a diversified group of friends. This is easy reading and one of those books you just don't want to put down. Always looking forward to the next memory. Thanks to all these women who shared their life with us."

"I just finished reading my current best book on growing Old w/ Acceptance and Gratitude. I enjoyed and related to each of these 3 Ladies. What a WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE.?!THANKS for sharing. I do want to read it again - it is so 'true to life'.

Well, the book is absolutely charming! ....Such generous women to write so honestly.

I read the book almost immediately upon receiving itI Googled “a Cursillo” - had not heard of it before.

It would be fun to meet all three of these marvelous women some day. The book, I must add, is so very well written. And, I liked the format, allowing each of the women a voice in each chapter on well-chosen topics.

Congratulations to the authors."

Very easy to use to open the wine
Color: 7-in-1 Black, Size: Rechargeable Set
Instructions were not clear enough, instructions about the bottle stoppers. The opener aprons well though. That was very easy once charged.

Vendor support is excellent
Color: 7-in-1 Black, Size: Rechargeable Set
UPDATE 2: The vendor proactively reached out to me and sent me a replacement. The replacement works well so I’ve given them 5 Stars. UPDATE: It really doesn’t ever go in straight so every cork is at risk for breaking off. I lowered rating to two. It ultimately works about 85% of the time. Meh. Works most of the time, but has issues. It wrecks corks much more often than the Brookstone one we had before. It seems to twist in sideways so that it runs along the glass of the bottle neck instead of straight down. This causes it to destroy the corks fairly frequently… and on occasion it destroys it so much that you can’t get the cork out at all. Pros: Quiet Has the bottle sealers and suction. Recharges on base. Cons: Damages corks Sometimes destroys corks to point of not being able to extract them. Goes in crooked.

Great value and works well
Color: 7-in-1 Black, Size: Rechargeable Set
I wasn’t sure this would compare to the name brand one I’ve had for years but it finally died and I needed a replacement. The Circle Joy amazed me with how easily it removes corks, ejects the cork and vacuum seals the bottle when you’re done. Some reviews mentioned they were concerned with durability but it’s still working great and no signs of wear after two months of regular use.
