Synopsis
In a collection of revealing, humorous, and often self-deprecating essays and short stories, the author describes her decision to move into a Senior Community, or "Wrinkle Ranch," her initial struggles to adapt to her new lifestyle, and her successful transition to "Rancher." In the opening chapter through a series of vignettes about real people with real, but sometimes not realistic, desires, Ms. Key provides insight into the process of choosing to move to a Senior Living Community. Subsequently she introduces the reader to some challenges presented by the lifestyle changes of Community living and explores the opportunities a resident may encounter - from new hobbies to love and marriage Drawing from her wide range of interests in sports, music, and literature and her experience in business and with the military, the author leverages her proper Southern upbringing and love of people to pry into every corner of her Wrinkle Ranch and put its residents and staff on display for the reader. In stories like "Working Fast" and "Wardrobe Malfunction" Ms. Key gives us a window into the process of "ageing in place" with a huge dose of humor thrown in for good measure., In a collection of revealing, humorous, and often self-deprecating essays and short stories, the author describes her decision to move into a Senior Community, or "Wrinkle Ranch," her initial struggles to adapt to her new lifestyle, and her successful transition to "Rancher."

    Ordering the true 1st edition of this book proved to be an ordeal. It took me four goes to finally land one! It seems for this specific book the automated form filling software used by many sellers puts forward the multiple reprints between 1999 and 2001 as 1st editions. Thankfully this seller provided detailed photos, so I could order in confidence. The book arrived on the 1st day of the delivery window and was very securely boxed up. A happy customer.
