Sue’s Favorite Finds for Life After 60

Smart Home Helper

How Alexa Helped Me Keep My Dad Safe

With me here in Michigan and my dad living in Florida, Alexa became more than a gadget — it became peace of mind. When he wouldn’t answer his phone, I used “Drop In” mode. More than once, I found him on the floor and was able to get help immediately.

It’s one of the best decisions I’ve made for long-distance caregiving. 👉 See Alexa on Amazon


Wellness Pick

Dead Sea Mud & Clay – Jim’s Secret Weapon for Back Acne

My husband swears by this. He uses it regularly, and it’s made a real difference. When you’re dealing with stubborn skin issues, finding something that actually works is a blessing.

Pain Relief Pick

The Pillow That Finally Helped My Neck

Neck pain has been my constant companion — surgery, pain clinic, you name it. But this cervical pillow finally gave me proper support. I wake up feeling less stiff, and for me, that is priceless. 👉 See the Cervical Pillow for Neck Pain on Amazon

Comfort Pick

Cooling Relief for Swollen Feet & Ankles

This ice wrap sleeve is easy to slip on and cools all the right spots — heel, ankle, top of foot. After a long day? Pure relief.

Retirement Hobby Pick

Smoking Meat Has Become Our Weekend Adventure

We chose the Char-Griller® AKORN® over the Big Green Egg — way cheaper, and honestly just as good. Cast iron grates, warming rack, locking lid, plenty of room. Perfect for a couple that likes to feed the whole family.

Fall Fashion Pick

My Daughter’s Favorite Muck Boots

My daughter LOVES these — they keep her warm, hold up in Michigan weather, and they look cute. She finally pulled them out for the season and said, “Mom, these are the best.”
They come in four colors!

I’ll admit it: flossing was never my favorite. This cordless power flosser changed everything.
