Postscript Living began nearly a decade ago with a simple conviction: life after 60 deserves better storytelling. Not limp lifestyle lists. Not pastel platitudes. Not advice delivered in a tone usually reserved for children or the infirm.
We are smart. We are observant. We are still curious. And most of us are living far more nuanced lives than the marketplace seems prepared to acknowledge.
Postscript Living is a reflection of that nuance.
Who We Are
We are a married couple living in central Indiana who still like to host dinner, book the trip, attend concerts where we might dance in the aisle and attend a sporting event.
Ten years ago, Parkinson’s entered our life. It changed things.
It altered pace.
It sharpened our attention to energy.
It forced adaptation.
What it did not do is reduce our appetite for culture, connection, travel, good food, or humor.
So this space isn’t about “thriving despite.” It’s about living with what is true.
What You’ll Find Here
Postscript Living is not a senior lifestyle blog.
It’s a field notebook for people who are:
- Navigating aging bodies without surrendering identity
- Living alongside chronic illness (their own or someone else’s)
- Hosting differently than they did at 40
- Traveling more thoughtfully
- Curious about technology but allergic to condescension
- Interested in culture close to home
- Protective of their energy
- Still expecting substance
We write about:
- Entertaining without exhaustion
- Travel adjusted, not diminished
- What Parkinson’s has actually taught us
- Marriage when roles evolve
- Cultural life in unexpected places
- Systems and tools that genuinely help
- The quiet recalibration that comes with time
This is not inspiration content.
It’s observation.
What This Is Not
This is not a brand built around decline.
This is not a medical advice column.
This is not “aging successfully.”
We are not interested in becoming better versions of our former selves.
We are interested in becoming more precise versions of who we are now.
Why “Postscript”?
Because the postscript is where the author adds what couldn’t fit in the main body of the story.
It is perspective.
It is refinement.
It is often the most honest line on the page.
The later chapters of life are not filler. They are not epilogues. They are not quiet fade-outs.
They are, quite often, the most deliberate writing we do.
A Final Word
If you are looking for anti-aging tips, you won’t find them here.
If you are looking for permission to stay curious, to adapt without apology, to host simply, to travel thoughtfully, to laugh dryly, and to live honestly in the presence of change —you are in the right place.
Welcome to the postscript.
