Definitely not twenty anymore

Sep 27, 2013 18:35

Not that I was unaware of the fact that I'm very close to 50. I wasn't quite expecting, though, to feel the effect of stress, little sleep and lots of hard work as strongly as I do. Or rather, I thought I'd recover more quickly ( Read more... )

I hate the new version of Windows too.

As for age...I have learn to help myself with things that make my life easier too. No guilt.

No guilt at all. If you can't accept that you're getting older, life will be hard indeed, not to mention incredibly frustrating.

I sleep on flannel sheets, year-round. They're cozy in winter, don't stick to me in summer, and never, ever need ironing. I don't think I've ever ironed a sheet in my entire life :)

Re: television. Mine is from 1996 and going strong. Well, I assume it is... I turn it on about once a month. I don't think my cable is working, but I can't be bothered to look into it.

How are the cats? My new barn cats are still sorting out their niche among the existing cats, the three dogs, and the goats. There are now ten cats on the property, I think... let's see: Harry, Ron, and Oreo in the house. Jade, Samhain, Venus, Lightning, Cookie, and Stormy outside; Bella and Buddy haven't shown their faces here in the past week or so. So that's 9-11 cats. I think. I do know how many dogs I have (3) and goats (20; 6 mothers and 14 babies). I have no idea how many rabbits or hens there are. Oh well.

My mother used to send laundry out years ago, very civilized. I've been able to move MS office to other machines, wonder why you can't?
I don't think age is your problem, it's the move, renos, settling the cats. Lots of stress. Your energy will bounce back.

Ja, mit 50 oder etwas drunter (ich drüber) merkt man schon daß es nicht mehr soooo geht. Vor allem solche Gewaltakte, wie Du sie während der letzten 2 Wochen erlebt hast sind nicht mehr so leicht wegzustecken.

Aber wie Du richtig schreibst - kein Drama! :-) Geht jedem so.

Dir auch ein schönes WE - bist Du ab 1. 10. schon im neuen Amt und Würden, oder hast Du noch ein wenig Ruhe?
