Dear Partners in Aging,

I will confess I have never been this old before; I have little experience at being 60. Still, just two weeks into the project, I’ve noticed some changes.

I mused a few years back that over 50 years of wearing socks resulted in a case of “old man feet” where I was no longer able to grow hair on my ankles. That condition has not changed as I am still wearing socks; but now, further down this aging body journey, I’ve noticed new signals of deterioration.
