Today is Baby Boomer Recognition Day.

I am not making this up. You can actually send a fellow baby boomer an e-card through “Blue Mountain”:http://www.bluemountain.com/display.pd?prodnum=3057325&path=76752&bfrom=1&va=1, an online site that offers free greeting cards.

So go celebrate! And let me know how you marked the day.

About this blog

We've been called "the sandwich generation" and with good reason. Most of today's baby boomers (born between 1946 and 1964) are dealing with aging parents and college-age kids -- or starting again as empty nesters, adapting to a new life without children at home.


In the Middle will address a variety of topics, including caring for aging parents (medical, ethical, emotional and financial issues) and caring for parents long-distance (what do we do when parents live out of state, or are citizens of another country and we can't bring them to the U.S. for medical care?).


It will also cover the way we deal with the financial and emotional demands of our teenage and young-adult children. Middle age also presents its own "crises": How do we handle that first mailing from AARP? Preventive health screenings (like colonoscopies and bone-density tests)? What are the dating options for those who find themselves single in middle age?


In the Middle will explore all these topics and more, as we share resources and learn from each other's experiences.
