Jan, did you know that doing "new" things, or doing old things with your
non-dominant hand will keep your brain cells stimulated and sharp for the
looooonnnnng haul?  In articles about getting older in years but not
declining mentally, they recommend that we do routine things once in a
while with the non-dominant hand--such as brushing teeth, combing hair,
opening bottles, etc.

One can also put jigsaw puzzles together or work cross-word puzzles... or
have a job that is different and challenging each and every day--nothing
routine.  Now, where would we find such an occupation?
