My granddad used to say “Getting old is a pain - but it’s better than the alternative.” It’s all about attitude.

Another hard thing is losing friends and family to death or dementia. Great video. We need to keep doing as much as we can for as long as we can.

You ARE a Legacy! You ARE a Star!!! Aging sucks. But, we've earned every wrinkle and crinkle. Wisdom has more value than gold. You can't get it without aging. Sissies just fade away. Keep Shining Lindy!!! ✨️🌟💫⭐️ ~ 🦋

Love you Lindy! My mother in law always said “getting old is not for sissies.” She lived a very active life despite all those aches, pains, and issues until she suffered a stroke and refused a feeding tube. She lived and passed her way and I admire her for it.

You are doing one heck of a job aging gracefully, with humor and saying it like it is, girl!! Keep on doing what you’re doing! ❤️🤗🤗

Girl, I hear you! I thought the days would drag by slowly since we aren’t so busy but it’s just the opposite. I feel like I went to sleep one night at 45 and woke up and found I was almost 70! For me, the worst is my double chin and hair loss. Fortunately, my teeth are pretty solid. I have two that I’m probably just going to get yanked. At my age, I’m not spending $2000 a tooth for crowns. I have zero plans to go into a nursing home. To borrow a saying from my sister, I will go mushroom hunting in winter before I waste away in a nursing home.

Love your attitude Lindy ! Your right,there is not much "Gold" in the Golden Years. Keep laughing and smiling! We love you and Marley.🧡🧡

I remember looking up the word elderly. Dang it…..I fell into that group. I don’t feel elderly!! Its better than the alternative!! My Mom was 95 and never uttered a complaint. I strive to be like her❤️

Someone once told me: “Aging is the ultimate Extreme Sport”. Finding so much truth in that statement.

I love listening to you Lindy, your sure put a smile on my face. 63years old and aging.😊❤

Lindy you are terrific and an inspiration. I’m 63, planning on going on the road when I retire in 4 years. I used to camp with my ex so I know I can do it. I’m getting out of debt in the meantime and saving for a van when I need a new car.

Thanks Lindy for the insights into aging. My parents made growing old look easy… they never complained, because dad said complaining just didn’t help. But unfortunately it didn’t prepare me for all the aches and pains, struggles and challenges of aging. You, on the other hand, gave reasonable insights without complaining. Thank you! 💖

We should talk about how lucky we are to live to this age. Many haven’t made it!!!

Lindy, IT SUCKS!! I have no desire to blow out 100 candles, trust me. Everything you said is spot on, and same here. Hugs. Rosemarie ❤️

You cracked me up about hair not growing on our legs and underarms. lol. Now if it would quit growing on my chin I would be happy 😂

Last month at the dentists a "young man" brought some forms. I reached for my purse and he said in a "talking to a child" tone. "Oh, do you need to get your peepers dear." I'd have slapped the little snot, but I am too old to go to jail. LOL

My new wrinkles are making me feel so old but I realize that having lived with lupus for 35 years I am lucky to be alive.

If we’re lucky we r blessed with aging. I don’t care about gray hare, was wavy and full, now thinning ang turning stick straight. My biggest battle is fighting the healthcare system. Que sera sera😁

I hear you, lady! Aging sucks 😊 But some did not get the privilege.

Lindy, I'm 67 and this is so true and so funny! I hope this video goes viral 🤭😅🤣

Lindy you are so cute! Your son will have all your videos to remember you!

I was hoping you had all the answers. 😆 Thank you for the laughs. 😅 We can enjoy getting older. It's just a matter of our mindset. I'm trying harder to find the fun in getting older. You're too funny! 😂

Great video! I have tried my entire career (retired church pastor) to get people to talk about this stuff. It’s so much easier for everyone when we do. Thanks again .

I hear you, I'm getting older too. I would like to avoid the mirror, but I need it to pluck my mustache. Lol 😂 I just laugh and go about life. No worries ❤

😂Oh my goodness! I am so glad I discovered you! You are so darn cute! Your honesty is so refreshing. Old age sucks so we just have to accept it & laugh! I'm in my 70's and my husband also. I always say, "How did we get so old?" It happened so fast! EVERYTHING you described I can relate to. I have very little hair on legs/underarms...now its all grows on my chin!😂 THANKS FOR MAKING ME SMILE SWEET LADY!!!❤

I’m in the hospital and I’m watching this. I’m laughing so hard. You gotta come in here and wonder what’s wrong with me

I will be 70 come April and yes I feel it. But my Uncle always said the only place he found the gold in golden years was in his pee. So true. Oh well we are earning every wrinkle and grey hair on our heads. I’m so thankful to still be alive. I am the oldest of my siblings 5 of have passed on. So I am thankful for everyday the good Lord gives me. Keep up the good work. Love listening to you.

I'm someone who is right there with you, if a few years behind, thank you for not sugar coating it. I find it so annoying when people make it sound like aging is a 100% wonderful thing. Yes I get it, you're better off than somebody that died when they were young, and there are certainly people who are presently worse off, that's no argument. And if you have lots of money it certainly is easier, but I don't have lots of money. The trick is not getting bitter over it, aging that is, which I am having some trouble with. I would say the main thing that keeps me from being totally cuckoo over aging is my sense of humor, which you pointed out. There's just nothing we can do about it so you might as well make fun of it. I do try to maintain myself, but not only am I going to be 69 years old, but I had Polio as a kid and post-polio syndrome has been kicking my ass for the last 25 years, and I have had one injury or illness or surgery after the other. Without going into too much detail, I had a very abusive childhood, at home and in school and it was very debilitating for years mentally because of it. I mean, when your nickname in school is "polio case" ( people can really suck sometimes) and you have the crap beaten out of you every day, it kind of messes you up for a while. So anyway, fast forward, and in my twenties and thirties I finally worked very hard to make myself a relatively attractive semi hunk, lol, and now that all that's being taken away and I look more like an old pelican that's been run over by a tractor trailer hahaha (see, you have to have humor......) and it is rather difficult. I would say the worst part of aging is when you start to age and start seeing The Tell-Tale signs and you feel like that guy in the movie The Fly, and you just look in the mirror and want to scream. It does get a little easier once you have finally accepted it and you're over the hump and you are truly a "senior citizen." But it is not easy. Anyway, you excellently expressed exactly how I feel about aging and how many others also feel, I'm sure. ❤️

Very good topic. I love your candid and honest views on it. I like to say that aging is the great equalizer. No one gets out alive. So, laughing about it is the best medicine. I just lost another high school friend this week. That is the eye opener for me.

Welcome to seniorville… lol just keep your head up and laugh!! You’re the best Lindy!!

I enjoyed your video. I turned 70 a few months ago and it seems the aging process is really starting to kick in. Thanks for telling it like it is! 😊

Rock on Soul Sister! From an 82-year old grandmother of four! Never give up and continue forward!

I actually think life is better then when I was younger and afraid of everything

God bless you for choosing this subject. I'm now turning 76 soon. I recognize all that you talk about. This is the best video I have ever heard on KZfaq. I rejoined your group membership. Thank you, Lindy! 🎉🎉🎉

This is a subject close to my heart Lindy I and thank you for addressing it. I am feeling so many aches and pains and I still have to get up for work everyday. I feel invisible at most times and your content is always right on time. Yes I am aging but I am not finished yet 🎉You're a beautiful spirit keep shining through. I love the way you look ❤

Thank you Lindy! You are such a blessing to us older gals. I’m turning 63 next month. Three sons: 31, 26, 23 (in two days🎉). My 60th birthday was the worst day of my life. 😢 I have one year to retirement. Trying to be “productive” and make it through. We do get younger - in heaven… we hope. I trust in Jesus, and offer my hardships for God’s kingdom on earth - I hope. Living everyday in the present with van life - a dream.😊 No bra Lindy - give that thing up. Be free.

You make me laugh. You crazy lady. I'm dealing with age issues right now too. Not to mention that Winter does brutal things to our mind and body while we should be in rest. I'm not handling aging gracefully at all. Although, I do remember that by knowing death is closer I appreciate everyday much more❤

I'm 71 and was a geriatric nurse for a long time. I learned all about what awaited me when I became old. I try to remember what George Burns used to say, that every day above ground is a good day. It's not easy, but the alternative doesn't attract me. Im traveling with my daughter and DIL for 4 years now in a 5th wheel. I love having a different view every couple of weeks, and im not sitting on a couch in a sticks and bricks waiting to die. I'm living my dream of seeing all 50 states before I'm gone, and my daughters are making this come true. Thank you for your making us laugh. I would much rather laugh about it than cry. Bless you.

I’m 75 and I think all of your same thoughts! I look in the mirror and wonder when exactly did this all happen that I didn’t see this coming on. To hear it coming from your perspective it actually made me laugh a bit, so thank you. I’m saving this video to re-watch over and over.

Despite certain issues regarding ageing, we must consider it a privilege , as so many young ones sadly never get to experience a long life. ❤

Good morning, Lindy & Marley! I beat ya on cataract surgery. I was blind in my right eye for a year from it til I got on Medicare. 2022 in the fall is when I had them done. Great to be able to see! Haha. Around 55, I received a piece of mail that said dear senior citizen! 😂 I was pissed off! I wasn't a senior citizen! Haha. But, advantages are the discounts!😊 I had to have my hip replaced. Omg! I was in pain for awhile, a caregiver with a cane!😂 I was embarrassed! But, I did it. Now, I'm addressing my left ear hearing loss. With Medicare (yay!), I got a very thorough hearing test. It confirmed that I can't hear! Hearing aids--omg only old people wear those! I hope I can afford it. At the office they had a Lil man on a hearing aid on a dummy ear. I want something like that. I'm 66! Am I old? Yes! I SAY I'M OLD NOW. You can't hide age! We just bought a jeep gladiator truck. We're old. We're going up and down the Sacramento mountains yesterday and I played in snow. I lived in Florida. I never played in snow. Today we're going back up there because I have to make a snow angel and bringing a new gf to play in the snow with. Hubby likes the 4x4! It's his toy at 67! Hahaha. Cloudcroft is a lovely skiing town in the NM mountains. We live very close to it in the basin.

This has been a great talk Lindy. It is so important that we can talk about. You are so awesome to be open about what we are facing! 🎉

Phyllis Diller LIVES ON! Yes, many of us can relate! It's all in how we handle it! GREAT VIDEO LINDY!!! Marie ❤️

Talking about our aches and pains when we get together is called the "organ recital" 😂

I'm 72, and you are my inspiration. I am getting hip replacement in a few days, and I think I want to be like !Indy. The doctors promise me I'll be out hiking again by summer. Then I'm going to be like Lindy! Oh, don't look in the mirror - you are not that old woman you see!

You are a Legend Lindy ! You are so much fun and so sweet we will never forget you after you go on your Grand Adventure With our Heavenly father. We will see you again and remember your sweet kind personality We love you Lindy ! You always make me smile and laugh. I look forward to all your videos. Thank you for sharing your life. ❤

Lindy, try a front closure bra. I switched to them years ago cuz of having trouble reaching the back closures. Love ya ❤❤❤❤

You’re already a star and telling the truth with a smile and humor. I’ve said so many things about the “Golden Age “. To me it’s the Copper Age corroding. ❤

Lindy you sound so much like myself and my 83 year old mother. We get a big kick talking about all the changes our bodies are going through. To be honest, I think I could deal with the aging process a whole lot better if younger adults would show a little bit of respect for elders. It’s hard enough without others adding more issues to our last years. Seems there is so little help for our elderly. Please keep being yourself. You are so greatly appreciated and loved by many folks. ❤

I’d rather hear “geriatric” than “old”! “Old age is not for sissies”! Love it! lol! I can’t believe I’m going to be 63 in July! 😱 I don’t feel that age in my head, but my knees sure do! I always refer to the aging process as the AP. It sucks. I got so many laughs and giggles from this video. You crack me up!

"The Golden Years, give me a break, people!" Ha ha ha! But you know what, you are doing great in the golden years, Lindy.

You are lucky you are not married. A husband that reminds you every day that you are getting old and looking like it and he is 80 years old and everyone tells him he doesn’t look his age. You are soooo lucky 🍀Also please don’t go to your doctor and tell him you have vertigo!!!!! He will yank your drivers license!!! This happened to my dad…..

Hey Lindy, it's brave to though the subject. As I see it is, the only solution for not getting old is dyiing young. That is no fun either Getting old is not a walk in the park but it is kind of a privilege. I don't like the downfall but I am glad to be still around for a while 😊

Front hook bras. 18 hour bra is what I get. switched years ago because of arthritis in my shoulder. I just celebrated 74. Ty for an honest conversation. When you coming to Texas, Lindy? I just bought a small travel trailer so I can “go and do” while I am still able to do so. You mentioned this.

Love it how you talk about difficult things that await all of us (if we are lucky enough to live to the old age). Good luck and good health to you, Lindy❤

I am gonna be 75 this year. I loved this video. You are the best. Your attitude is great. Keep it up. Take care. ❤

Great vid Lindy

I am 74, got dentures in 2004, had cataract surgery on both eyes in 2022, started using oxygen when doing strenuous things like vacuuming and working in the yard. Waking up every morning I look forward to. I thank Jesus every day and am grateful.

I have front loading bras Lindy, makes life easier. But with the other ones I have always fastened them at the front then twisted it around to the back and pull up. I do know what you mean, you always manage to give me a smile 😊. Thank you and God bless you!

Love your take on aging, Lindy! I'm 65 ...

We just gotta😂laugh lots. About everything. Both my children have abandoned me ,grown daughters & have somehow influenced my GRANDS & GREAT GRANDS to do same . So I AM FREE TO BE 😮 Spending the $ i have in savings on fun stuff ,trips etc . I plan to go up in to a very high mountain & meditate till my Spitit leaves my body❤ Buzzards & other critters can have it. No burying required. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Lindy I love your personality and your attitude. Yeah I don’t wanna look in the mirror either.

You are a delight and your sweet spirit touches many which is evidenced in the comments your viewers are sharing. Thanks for the smiles

I'm so happy to watch this video. 🤗 I'm 62 years old and I can relate to some of it, and was becoming concerned about a lot of it. Nobody really talks about this part of van life. Thanks for sharing ❤

You are funny but so true!!

I love your sense of humour and honesty, Lindy. Sending you big hug!🤗

You are so funny. I really enjoy your full honesty. Everything you say is so true,😂😂😂😂

You are still beautiful Lindy. I am sorry that you have struggles but God will carry you through. I pray God will ease any challenges you face. Aging is also a gift from God. Yes there is many, many challenges but every breath is a gift from God. Romans 8 18 The temporary sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory that shall be revealed in in us. 1st Corinthians 2 9 But as it is written eye hath not seen nor ear heard neither have entered into the heart of man the things which God hath prepared for those that love him. If we have been born again, one day we will get to be in heaven and there is no pain, no sorrow, no suffering, no sickness and no death there. We must endure to the end while we are here on earth but one day we will get to be with Jesus. I love you Jesus. I run my race to hug Jesus. God bless and keep you Lindy. I love you friend and i appreciate your content being christian friendly.

Great video! I do think a positive when ageing is we don't sweat the small stuff anymore. Or, to put it bluntly, I just don't care. It is very freeing to release these things. Also, way more appreciative of the "good" in life.😁

Hi When I first started to notice is my physical health. It became scary. Death became more apparent. Thank you young lady for sharing your life with us. God bless you.

Ay Dios mío Lindy, so so true. So good to hear you speak of these things. I to have told my children and they'd not like to hear it. I've even done the Swedish death cleaning when moving out of my loghome in 2012 and 2018 when I bought my cargo van more so on road 2021. That helped my children tremendously. Gave to say nomad life is Freedom❤🇵🇷🌺🏝🌊

I just turned 60 I will be participating in my first triathlon may 5 ✌️😁🙏🏽

71 here, Lindy. Can relate to almost everything you said. The hardest thing for me is stamina, and losing friends and loved ones I have known all my life. Seems to be constant at this point.😢. I wouldn't be upset if I died next week. Still have to work and I am tired, and achey.However I do believe God has me here for a reason, and altho I would like to do a Thelma and Louise situation when I see the whitecoats coming ,my goal is to let Him call the shots when He wants me home. I think my job is to try and figure out how to serve and please Him with the time I have left with what I am able to do. Have a great day. Great video. Thanks.❤

Oh my I have the compressed discs in my neck and back and I’m only 69 .Some of those gals in their 70sdoing van life are amazing for sure 💜✌️

Love you Lindy just so you know my career as a caregiver is what I feel puts me in to purchase property to provide safety friendships and a caregiver on board just in case. All free to a few nomad elderly ladies. Linda let's do this and get Bob's input. OK xoxo

Hi Lindy, I’m only 50 and some of this nonsense is already happening to me. I think having to shave less is awesome! Luckily the hair on my head hasn’t thinned out too badly. I take vitamins to help. My eyebrows have left me, but I have chin hairs sprouting almost every day! It’s horrific. I carry a tweezer in my purse, car and keep one by my bedside table. I don’t understand why I grow chin hairs but not eyebrows, lol. I can’t drive much at night because I can’t see 💩

I have been watching for months. In 11 months i am going to set out on the road..

I love you Ms. Lindy, Thankyou dear, 🙏💖✝️🕊️🌹🌿✨

Everything you mentioned is true! Getting old is for the birds, but the alternative is worse. Thank you for sharing!!😊

Our sense of humor may be all we have, and of course our attitude is truly the only thing we have any control over! 😵‍💫🤭. I really appreciate you and your attitudes. I’m older than you, 81! and just can’t believe it! Truly! 🤦🏼‍♀️🙆🏼‍♀️ And have a hubby, he is the half empty and I’m the half full glass in life. It’s difficult trying to pull that person up and out to enjoy all that life has, even at this age BUT it won’t come to you!! Have tried to help him understand, each day, each minute that goes by, there is no do overs and it’s gone! Maybe I’ll get it figured out before Papa God says “It’s time to come home”. Proud of you Adventuresome Lindy for standing your ground and living life your way! Cheering you on Young Lady! 🎉🤭😁🥳💕🥰

I’m so glad the Talk head is back you do good tours, but I like talking her keep going with the talking head

Love this 😻 Better write my book before I forget. Hate the receding gums, the dentist and the hair loss. It could be a little more wonderful if society valued the "elders" instead of chasing youth with face and butt lifts ↑↑🤣 You are beautiful. And your obituary will be on legacy.🌟

Good laugh Lindy!! Also hearing goes 😂 . Maybe all those rock concerts I went to for years. I hate the word elderly!!!! When I read that about someone I shudder and think don’t ever call me elderly. At 72 coming this year I don’t feel elderly! My motto has always been …. Keep your sense of humour and don’t take yourself too seriously. Thanks for the chuckle that sadly I can relate to now. 🤪😂😘

This is hilarious Lindy 😂 I'm in my 70s thinking all this ! Bless you're heart 🙏 love from Wales UK 💛

Hi Lindy! I can relate to everything you’re talking about. We worked so hard all of our lives…and it’s a struggle if we age and are not well off. Like you, I have one son. He’s done well, and can’t understand why I am poor now. It’s a long story… we all have a story. Hang in there.

Spot on Lindy. Just love you

Loved it😅😅😅

Lindy I try not to think about the future. Or I would be frustrated and I be depressed so none of that right now. I do have insurance but I just pay it and that’s it. I take care of my things pay bills and take care of my dog. I’m fine but things do happen. You’re doing well you are a positive lady so we just go on praying for you and your doggie you are a survivor. 🌸💕✨

Boy you nailed it for sure. Love your sense of humor.

Omg, you are just inspirational, true, and a joy!!! And I’ve only started watching you 20 minutes ago. I’m 49 years old and I thank you for keeping it real.

I keep reminding myself that getting old is so much better than the alternative! My joy now is watching “nomad” videos and thinking what if. But I was born with children, I KNOW, that seems impossible, however I can’t remember a time without them. I am now raising my third generation. Soooo I thank you for your travels, your talks and just being.

I laugh about my age, tease about playing the old lady card. It is what it is, I just go with the flow, and try to enjoy the rest of my life. Hugs Lindy

Lindy I love your spirit and all that other stuff is to be considered a life well lived. To add….you still have glamorous nails.

Oh Lindy, for me it hit me when my sister died a few years ago. When my rock and roll favorites started getting old and dying. I’m an inch shorter and my feet are a size larger. I started”the conversation “ on my last visit with my son. At our age I believe we should live life to the fullest with the time we have left. You are a treasure. Glad you are sharing your time with us.

Just turned 56 & it’s really starting to set in. Letting my grey grow out. And running #’s to see how will we survive our “golden years 😂” as you said it bs 💩.

Thank you for being open and vulnerable regarding aging. I lost my mother a year ago and turned 43 last month. Im starting to look more and more like her every day (gray hairs, wrinkles, bad skin, double chin, fat sticking around). Im starting to realize I have less time left on this earth than Ive already had (that went by in a flash) and its honestly freaking me out. You are correct, aging is hard and not for sissys. I say this as a tear rolls down my face. I appreciate your video, thank you for making me feel less alone.

Hi Lindy ! This was being real for real ! Love you attitude & honesty ! That's for being you !

Great topic! I love your sense of humor. Im 68 , still upright and taking care of myself. So I consider myself very blessed. ❤

Woohoo. Closing in on 40,000 subs. Go Lindy 💋🙏🙏💞

God Bless you Lindy!
