Feeling Good AT ANY AGE
I woke up and feel great which I do most days. If a doctor prescribes a medication and I feel worse. I stop taking it. I am not sure that I am always right to do that but that is what I ususally do. I am on no daily medications and treat most things with exercise, massage and diet changes. I live a normal life and usually never make an issue…

Rose, there is no such thing as a ‘normal’ life or a ‘normal’ way of living or a ‘normal way of thinking. Its only others that judge because your way is not their way. As for food, I believe our individual bodies tell us what our body needs, if its chocolate, the body needs iron, if its fish, our bodies need calcium etc. If you dont think…

Pollypie, I love and agree with what you say, but if there is no normal then what is considered weird. Our bodies do know a whole lot about what we need. It is our inability to translate body messages that is the problem. We all need to take our bodies much more seriously and reflect on what did when we feel great or don’t feel good. None of…

A Monday morning HELLO to everyone at 4:33 am CDT zone, Chicago Metro. I slept well and feel great. I looked out my window and saw a ground cover of snow. It is 27F now and will go down to 12F before the day is over. Yesterday we had 4 seasons, warm, rain, snow and cold. It was warm and dry when I went to church. We have blizzard warnings to…

Walmart VS. Amazon and the Modern ERA
I switched my grocery delivery service from Amazon to Walmart and am enjoying the change, though Amazon has the easiest Website to use in the business. Walmart has a better grocery service and more products. Today, I discovered a recipe area that I can choose a recipe and add the ingredients to my shopping cart list. I chose asparagus…

Well I didn’t know Amazon did a grocery delivery service. I wonder if they do in the UK?

Podcast and Science and Doctors
I love it when other members start conversations and I get a whole new way of thinking like a member who shared a Podcast Star and I remembered the name of a Country Music Star so I was befuddled. The world is changing and I am out of touch. Truth Social may be a news source for some. Everybody’s opinion matters. I cannot put everything in…
-
We couldn’t possibly be in touch with everything at every level. When we were youngsters our outlook was different and lacked a lot of knowledge & experience, so even then a more adult person would say we were out of touch. The truth is, we are in touch with the most important aspects of our lives, things that are important to us and our…

@roseinbloom & @dj I like the expression “In touch” because I think thats what open minded and inquisitive people are. We dont grab and run with stuff. We touch, get a feel for, explore and revisit. We keep touching on subjects that interest us. But I think the wisdom of age and experience gives us a light touch. Most of us are less certain,…

Overthinking
Thinking preceeds any action and overthinking has to meanhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TsSq7r02yv0 we are stuck on something and need to move forward. Write down pros and cons and decide On an action and accept what you choose or accept what you do not want to change. Sometimes, we have information that is stored and troubling but we push…

I’m quite famous (or infamous) with my family for my ‘lists’ which basically means that when overthinking occurs, write things down. If it’s chores or jobs? Write it on a list. If it’s a decision about something? Write a list of pros and cons. If it’s something upsetting that’s on your mind? Write or type it out, and print it if necessary and…

I start list of thing’s that I deem important – then I can’t remember where they are. Seriously though, I’ve had a LOT of trouble reconciling to the fact that I’m old ! It’s totally illogical but my brain refuses to admit it. I find myself saying “back in the day” and “when we were young” which is both terrifying and laughable.

Tuesday and Storm warning
A Tuesday hello to everyone at 11:20 am CDT zone. My weather is cold again but the days keeps getting longer so that helps a lot. Storms are predicted and 2 inch hailstones. High 63F and low 38F. I don’t have any big or exciting plans for today. I worked on an Amazon return and printed shipping labels. I am happy to have my printer working,…

@roseinbloom Hi Rose. Amazon are still okay with their returns over here.

Hello Rose, I rarely use Amazon, I tend to use E-Bay for most of my on line shopping, but I guess Steve has answered your Q.. I’m happy you have your printer working again, have a great day Rose.

Aging and No Respect
There was a comidenne whose big line was. “I get no respect”. Many aging people get no respect. In my US culture leaders are a perfect example of our aging culture. Hide it deny, it defy it and still look very foolish a ot of the time or all the time. I try not to look foolish or act foolishly and to respect myself enough that the opinion…
