Kerry - I found that using Custom Light strings and getting your guitar "set-up" (about $40 at your local guitar shop and should take 30 mins.), where a professional will lower the action and release some of the tension on the strings, will make your guitar INCREDIBLY easier to play and will sound great. You'll need to change your strings more often (I do about once a month or 6 weeks) to keep them sounding great, so get the $6-$10 set, not the $22 ones. Hope this helps, us old folks need to stick together.
