Welcome Palm Beach Post Readers


Palm Beach Post: Millie, 81, gives senior a voice in cyberspace:
"Millie — now an 81-year-old who splits her time between Kings Point in Delray Beach and Swampscott, Mass. — takes it with such grace.

The world has been reading her since October 2003, when Steve Garfield, got her blogging at www.mymomsblog.blogspot.com. Not long after, she started video blogging (also with her son's help) in a series called 'I Can't Open It.' Ten episodes have featured her grappling with various containers, then brightening when her son opens them for her.

'At the age of 77, I started blogging,' she wrote in a recent posting. 'Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine that it would enrich my life the way it has."
For those visiting for the first time, here are the I Can't Open It videos:
