I know I am getting old because I use a Wall Calendar and NOT the "electronic" version my daughter is attached to. 🙄

And FORGET about using steps that are more than 3. 😱 My OLD knees/lol 🤣😂

1 comment (8/31/23) Hi @s804940b , so good to hear from you!

I never had close friends as all my life I moved around. And never been a Facebook fan - too much drama. 🙄

What I am MISSING of late is my "childhood" with my grandparents.

I would kill to have them in my life at "soon-to-be" 65.

Sucks getting old = losing folks we care about. 😥

I do understand that.  I only had one grandparent and she died when I was 7.  She was very loving.  Two of the others died when my parents were teenagers and the fourth was just mean and never acted like a grandparent.

1 comment (8/31/23) Hi @s804940b , it is so "unforgivable" when a grandparent is TOXIC.

My only child is dealing with one I have AVOIDED since she turned 18 = she went away to college, told her and her "wimp" (scared of her 🙄) of a husband they can go visit her on campus.

18 years of H.LL finally ended. 💃💃💃

That sounds just awful.  Much like the one I mentioned.  Always trying to start trouble.  She hated my Mom because she took away her only means of support between husbands.  Sometimes she would come to our house and eat everything we had with one of her new boyfriends.  We were poor, so my Mom started hiding food.  There were four children and then my parents to feed.  My Mom did a great job of it unless the witch just dropped over at night for a so called visit.

(8/31/23) Sometimes we have to "laugh" at ourselves!

Had bought a NON Walmart pack of wipes BECAUSE that is all they had. 🙄

So just now, time to open it.

Lol, took me awhile to figure out that I PRESS the button on top and up comes the cover. NEVER had that before and LUV IT!!! 💃💃💃

So yes, I am very OLD....

I know I am getting old because I have to leave a reminder note in front of my microwave. Lol, a reminder that I am cooking/heating up stuff. 😁🤣 Before using a note, stuff would stay in microwave until I used it again. 🙄

I know I am getting old because I sat down today to drink my first cup of Hazelnut cafè (my fav) and wondered why it tasted off. 😤 Lol, when I finished drinking it and returned to my kitchen, guess what was still sitting on the counter? My sweetener! 🤣😂 Got to luv those senior moments. 🙄
