I decided to take his suggestion and I feel much better. Here it is.In “Now that I am Sixty”, A. Mary Smith takes a humorous look at the complexities and challenges of 21st century life for ageing women baby boomers. Between not being able to get the car out of a parking lot, to customer disservice call centres, to ridiculous electronic forms, passwords and security questions—life is not easy these days! Still, with friends, family, travel and a little bit of free time it is very good!“Now that I am Sixty” will show you that you are not alone in your frustrations—and hopefully provide a few wry smiles, the odd guffaw and some belly laughs.
