older generations unite!

This thread has really uplifted me. Mostly hearing from so many folks in their 60s and 70s who are avid Simmers. Sometimes I wonder about my future as I age (I am almost 39 and have not found the life partner I hoped for, or had any children as of yet. Of course it may happen but it also may not!) Sometimes when I meet with older folks for work, some of them are really struggling with physical challenges and loneliness or isolation. When I picture my own older years, I often think "If I still have the Sims, that's one thing that will give me joy for as long as I live." It's so nice to hear that that's a real possibility. I think sometimes I imagine that as I age, for some reason I will no longer enjoy it. So thanks to all who have shared your ages and your interests. You're awesome, keep on Simming!
