AARP Rewards Community Learning & Earning Contest August 2022

I have a new word of the day.  Once identified, I look up the definition (there is typically more than one) and seek to use it throughout the day.

I love crosswords and I use this to exercise my brain - I love the crossword puzzles on the AARP site.

I read a few books each month and do word and number puzzles.,I’m also physically active - an avid walker and exerciser.,

Hi

I  decided to leave my nursing career after 35+ years and thought I would get bored. To have the freedom of planning my life and not have to ask for time off. I read all types of books . I do bible studies . I volunteer at my church. I take daily walks. I feel physically, emotionally  ,psychologically  powerful. I start ad finish my day with prayer.

Hi everyone!  I talked it over with my kids.and they agree that to keep brain sharp ,active, and up to date is reading , reading, and eating right. Good healthy food is important.  Reading  is informative,  educational , and good for the soul. Happy mind is happy body and soul.  So go to libaray, or bookstore. Enjoy!

I am 68 and work full time in law. 

I substitute at our local high school to keep the juices flowing, as well as puzzle and games online.

I'm always taking on new projects.  For example, prior to a trip to Italy this summer I took Italian lessons online.  I'm currently designing a needlepoint for a new grandchild due this Fall.  My husband and I are always discovering new walking paths within an hour or two of our home.  We've found some incredible places.  This winter I plan on taking a close look at how to manage and convert a huge collection of slides and photographs.  There is never a shortage of projects to take on..

I am an avid reader and I have several hobbies that I continually try to learn more about and become more proficient at.

I have 5 grandchildren that keep me very busy and my husband and I are always on the go.
