One of the "NANA NANO" series.
This series was conceived in honour of all the senior citizens of the world. As an Aged Carer myself I possess a deep and abiding respect and affection for this particular group of people whose wisdom and experience vastly outstrip my own. Who among us doesn’t know an elderly friend/neighbour/family member who may, from time to time, display what society has come to label “stereotypical” traits/behaviours of the more senior members of our population—diminished visual acuity and hearing, memory loss, issues with mobility, etc. These are the qualities that endear them to us, and let’s face it, they are the very traits that each of us has the chance to possess one day as an ever-growing segment of the Australian populace journeys into their twilight years. As the name suggests, it is a (magnetized) nano series containing logs only, so please bring along your own writing device.
This series is a celebration of the quirks and foibles that typify some of the seniors in our community. As an ever-growing group there is the distinct possibility that one day they will simply take over the world, at which point sturdy, sensible shoes, zimmer frames and crocheted knee rugs will be the order of the day. Enjoy these caches and do them in honour of someone you know and love whom you may recognize in the descriptions. Now, I’ll just go locate my specs and feed my 57 cats and leave you all to it.................................
“Buy bread, not glue”
This wonderful phrase was included on a short list of items created by my own beautiful Mother, who in her 88th year is currently battling the cruelties and indignities of dementia, in an effort to remind herself what were the important tasks for that day; the note was left on her own kitchen counter where she was sure to see it and remember what to buy when at the shops that day. Enjoy this cache and every time one of you logs it as found, thereby earning a smilie for yourself, it will bring my Mom to mind and I’ll have a smilie myself in her honour. Thank you.
