At our Senior Citizen Service Club (SCSC) meeting this week, we had Tobey Gifford, E-CYT and her daughter, Missy, who are co-owners of the Lemon Tree Yoga Healing Arts Studio come speak to us about Laughter Yoga. Boy! was it fun. And boy did we laugh. The best part was watching Jenny laugh so much that she could hardly breathe!

There has been research on laughter which shows all the benefits it does for you and your body. You remember your mother telling you. “laughter is good medicine”. Well, as it turns out, she was most likely right.

Definition of family:

1. Group consisting of parents and children living in a household
2. The children of a person or a a couple
3. A group of people united in criminal activity

Susan, a member of our Club, was saying the other day that a family to her was more than the definition listed above (and certainly not the third definition) but a “group of close-knit friends”. I totally agree with her and I have already written in previous blogs about three of my families. Today I would like to add another one to the list: SCSC.

SCSC is a service organization affiliated with the Greater Glens Falls Senior Center. The organization is dedicated to support of local charities though our time and money and provide social interchange between its members.

This is a group I joined about three years ago after one of my neighbors and Joe K. kept bugging me to join. To be frank, I wasn’t interested in committing myself to a luncheon meeting every Thursday. However, I did reluctantly joined and they have become my family; I look forward to our luncheon meeting every Thursday.
