Growing up post 1945 doesn't make all seniors stubborn, feeble- minded, or set in their ways. Squawk blogger, Judy and her friends may be in the evening of their lives, but they are progressive seniors. Not the progressive title espoused by liberal members of the Democratic party or mainstream media. These women are progressive in their belief that the principles, tenets, and fundamental rights this country's history is built upon belong to every citizen.

Life for them was different, harder in some respects and easier in others contributing to larks that make jaw-dropping stories. They have individual opinions they share as well, on men and marriage, sex and surgery, millennials and mothers, Black Lives Matter and the COVID-19 pandemic, politics and psychics, cosmetics and clothes, and don't forget kids. Sincere? Definitely. Politically correct? Not on your life. Apologetic? No way. Compassionate thinkers? Without a doubt.
Ready to remember the passing of years? Secrets you shared? Opinions that differ from yours? Even if you disagree, respect the right of others to say what they believe. These women recognize not everyone is evil, not everyone is eloquent, not everyone is always right.

Well, fasten your seat belts, girls. As Bette Davis once said, "It's going to be a bumpy ride.* "
