Looking for an over 50 crowd

Options
I can't compete with the young bodies! It depresses me to even try! I'm sending out an appeal to the olde crowd, you know who you are: witty, cynical, intelligent, slightly depressed, post menopausal, past the drama, set in your ways, down to earthers! Can we just do this before we stroke out? Please? Motivate me and I'll reciprocate! Then we can put our feet up and toast our success with a glass of wine! Sound good?

    Hey. I'll be 50 in November. Feel free to friend me. I'm around most days, and I'd say I'm about 80% toward fitting the bill you describe :)

    Oh, that's Ok! You can toast with fizzy lifting drinks, or whatever floats your particular amazing little boat!

    I'm 53 and love to workout. Been off the path the past month. Not sure if it is slightly depressed or really bored.

    Over 50 Group here on MFP

    I saw the above while searching around one day. Since there seem to be a lot of us in the over 50 crowd, I thought some of you might want to take a look.
