1. Genealogy

A lot of people have an increased interest in their family history as they grow older, but it may feel impossible to even get started without a helping hand- and that helping hand can cost a pretty penny.

Those of you who have an interest in genealogy don’t have to pay in order to trace your family tree. You can use online resources such as The Statue of Liberty-Ellis Island Foundation. They can provide data about relatives who came to the U.S. via this immigration gateway.

Find A Grave is a worldwide database of graves. You no longer have to travel thousands of miles for information about relatives that passed away.

But best of all, if you can, talk to your elders about your family history. It’s more than likely that they’ll want to take you on a trip down memory lane.

      Maybe you could check into “Get out and dine”. You have to apply for it but if you qualify, you get a card where you can dine out 5 times a month. They send you a brochure listing restaurants that accept the card. I love mine!

    Good information, but I’m curious about one statement contained in the article. In item 24 titled Water, we find this sentence referring to reusing a water bottle – “Oh and you’ll not only save money by doing so, but you’ll be helping the planet out by keeping fewer plastic water bottles out of landfills.” If we keep fewer plastic bottles out of the landfill, that means there are more going into it. My question is, how are we helping the planet by infusing more plastic bottles into landfills?

      It’s not the bottles in the land fill that’s the issue it’s the resources used to manufacturer, ship , retail, dispose of , truck to the land fill, equipment at land fill, and the fuel used by the equipment operator to get there!

    Why in some states the internet, phone and tv are only $10.00 a month for seniors. Dental implants are not offered to us, claiming it is classified costemtic surgery?? yet several people have had chocking while eating?? We need to fight for the things we need. Hey, I have fought all my life cause I have never been married??? It isn’t fair at all. Nothing is being done for us enough. Were is the power of the senior and we can win for the items we want???
