Hey folks, welcome to the new whine/general topic thread. Feel free to use this thread to discuss anything that is on your mind. Caregiving- related stuff, life after a loved one's death, your own emotional wellbeing. Whatever..........anything on your mind.
Imagine waking up one day, and thinking that every one of your decisions in life, until now, was wrong.
By the way, I don’t mean: your husband/wife, kids, being nice, being polite, etc. (Those decisions are not part of what I’m talking about).
But imagine you try totally different decisions. I think I’m going to try, just for fun.
So for example: I hate tomatoes. From today (for 1-month experiment), I’ll eat tomatoes now and then. I’ll read books I would normally never read. I’ll start some hobby that’s totally not part of my personality normally.
1-month experiment. I’ll see how it goes.
Enjoy it while it lasts! 😊
That’s our issue. The humidity is awful!
I am absolutely jealous! I’m so ready for fall!
One thing most of us never get enough of is sleep. A good night sleep does wonders for the body and the mind.
I hope you still have time to stay in touch with us occasionally.

Vancouver experienced what they referred to as a "heat dome" a couple of years ago and it was 44 celsius. Now that was freaking hot. Scary hot. So I know we've been lucky this year. I think the highest it's gotten this year is 33 celsius.
We do have an AC but I personally hate it. Hubs would love to have it on all the time but the noise and having frigid air blowing on me isn't a personal favorite of mine.
I got one the other day that actually interested me. I emailed back with the caveat that my availability is extremely limited and that I'm out of the country for the month of November. They came back even stronger, asking for a resume. Sent them another demurral this morning and they came back more insistently that they want to talk to me. So I sent them my bona fides and we'll see what happens!
Wishing you all the luck!! 🥳🥳
What are some of your plans for retirement?
Can be bittersweet.
It was a mystery.
But looking closer, it was fun recognizing who the poster was without seeing their name.
Still, a frustrating glitch. Hope it's fixed soon.
My dH said it has not been hacked, but may be from site development.
He said not to worry.
:)
The site is weird right now but they are supposed to be working on it.
Enjoy your retirement!!!
I hear you! I am done with summer too! I would also freeze during the winter months in colder climates.
Need, I prefer needing A/C to months of needing a heater or fire but, this record breaking heat is really tough this year.
We aren't even getting down to 77° overnight and I am soooooo done with summer already I would love a single day of 77°, it would be a reprieve to be sure :-)
I am always amazed at the difference tolerance levels based on where we live.
Oh my gosh, it would be a delightful not to need air conditioning!
But then people in BC often don't have A/C.
