The AARP says that only 5 percent of bloggers are over 50, but these silver-haired scribes have us wishing there were more key-tapping grannies. This week's LifeSpy points you to five of our favorites.

Mrs. Who's Open Book: An elementary school library specialist who's about to retire, she laments the prospect of a future without the "Soulja boy" dance. She chronicles her struggles to understand the workings of the almighty DVR and pontificates on the magnificence of her Dyson.

Mary's Writing Nook: On "Tackle It Tuesdays," "Show and Tell Fridays" and "Green Thumb Sundays," she blogs about festooning her home with some serious autumn decor and growing tomatoes with her beloved "hubby." Her fairy collection is like something out of a domesticated Disneyland.

Renie Burghart's World: Renie promises she isn't being disrespectful by calling her friends "geezers." Her "Wordless Wednesdays," a parade of lethally adorable pictures of animals and her grandchildren, are addictive.

The World's Greatest Procrastinator (Ditherer)! At 63, Winifred proclaims she's reached another stage in her life, but she's not quite sure what it is exactly. She ruminates on things like the beauty of her teensy iPod ... and the pain-in-the-butt that is iTunes.

Fools Rush In: Granny Annie says she's a broken hip waiting to happen. Though her days of political activism are "supposed to be over," she still weighs in on buzz-worthy items (yup, Sarah Palin). She also writes passionately about a recipe for the 948-calorie "Dangerous Chocolate Cake-In-A-Mug."
