I do not know quite what happened or when , but my hubby and I now qualify for seniors' discounts at some venues. This creates a quandary; in order to save money, but not face, we have to admit to our age. HMMMM..... We definitely do not consider ourselves to be old. In this day and age ,when people as a whole are living longer and healthier lives why are 'young seniors', those in their fifties, like moi, considered 'old'?? It's so true that age is just a perception! "Maturity" is very objective/subjective, and I object! Whew, a few years have skittered by since I composed this biography block. Those "fifties" are in the rear view mirror and they are distant, fond memories. Oh, I do not plan to stop writing any time soon.
I would've never guessed you to be an adrenaline junkie, Sandra. Way to go girl. I agree swallowing salt water isn't refreshing. As a child I loved swimming in the ocean, as an adult I think about all the stuff dumped it in.
You have lovely memories of your library. You must have lived close enough to go on your own. I loved my local library too. I went on Saturday morning with my dad.My favourite books were Little Women, What Katy did, Heidi, and any Dickens books.
Happy 10th WDC Anniversary, SandraLynn Team Florent!! I'm sorry I can't battle alongside with you, dear Florent. Go forth and go well! You are doing excellent!
WWAD-what would Andre do! Maybe he could get a 3D-printer, make bracelets with WWAD on them and sell them on the side.
We get our dogs braided rope toys to chew on and use dental sticks to help clean their teeth. Perhaps Andre would enjoy a nice braided chew rope, and if someone would make a banana flavored dental stick, he could use it for a swizzle stick in his drink and chew on after he downs it.
My grandgiggles now ask if I'm wearing bubble wrap when I venture forth for a meander/walk/stroll. I thought a clumsy monkey could be conceivable and that he'd be told the same thing I am. Be careful. What is that? Accidents happen, to me any way.
QueenNormaJeanGreeneggs&vegham You win! I've never been shot at, well, not directly. I once experienced the back window of my car being shot out as I drove along a highway. I believe it was a hunter's errant bullet. I wrote about us accident prone people. I refer to it as O.U.C.H. I believe I intended that to mean Our Unique Clumsiness Hurts. We create our own writing material.
Oh come on - I've had so many weird accidents - last one I swear I tripped on a feather. Broke 2 bones in my hand, cast for 4 weeks and now I'm going to see the doctor tomorrow. Cannot move the blasted hand at all.
Car accidents, been shot at, blew my knee getting into a truck. falling down drunk and waking up looking like a prize fighter when I had to go to a family funeral. I've had a few good ones.
May 21st Prompt: Write an open letter to a person or group of people you strongly disagree with and explain why. Use reason not emotion. Dear Creator and Overseer of Facebook, First let me begin by stating that I am a Facebooker. That means I use your app and enjoy sharing with my friends and family. I anticipate viewing the myriad of photos that are posted begging comment. I discover random rants and varying levels of conversation that intrigue, entertain and baffle me. Now I know what a meme is. Crazy, huh? The Facebook content never fails to amuse me. BUT,,, yes, I have a but, a dislike, a difference of opinion. Why are there advertisements insinuating themselves into my newsfeed? I do not consider ads to be news. I do not particularly like ads either. They are annoying enough to be sprinkled willy-nilly amongst any of my online forays and I do my best to ignore, if not outright shun them, but why on earth did you consider them important enough to insert them amongst my stream of photos and updates? Yes, ads have always 'framed' the Facebook page and they floated in my peripheral vision. I never understood their necessity. I ask again, why are they now infiltrating my newsfeed and intruding upon the user posts? I never agreed to this. I was never consulted. They are not user driven. The ads are not proposed , or shared by my fellow Facebookers. Where do you get off 'suggesting' ads for me? This is presumptuous. I do not want any ads littering my newsfeed. Over and over I attempt to discard these unwanted ads by requesting you 'hide' them. When I do this I am asked why? Do people actually enjoy these ads? I opt to answer that the ads are 'irrelevant.'Thay's what they are, irrelevant. And another thing, have you been spying upon me? Do you follow every thing I do? How else did you determine the ads that you presumed I would find interesting, or irresistible? My mind is boggled. Where did I ever indicate that I was wishing to purchase a new vehicle and also so many makes amd models? Why throw international travel options my way? I am not a drinker, yet you assume I have an overpowering thirst for beer and alcohol. What I am getting at is you do not know me at all. Stop the onslaught of ads! Irked and Ignored
