Some people can't wait to get their driving licence and enjoy every moment of their lessons. I was not like that. I learned very late in life to help my mum out as she had many hospital appointments which were costing her money...

deazil @sprite1950 Yes, the older they get the easier it gets. You'll still be able to enjoy your retirement. In the meantime I think you're enjoying watching her grow into a wonderful young lady. And being so close to each other - I think that's...

deazil @sprite1950 I agree, I'm sure it's difficult. Unfortunately, these days many grandparents are in your position. I applaud those who, like yourself, have taken on the challenge of raising a child again when these should be the years you get to devote to...

Decided just to get out of the house for a bit. It's actually a really nice day today. Sunny and 51 degrees. 6 degrees warmer than I thought it was going to be, and it FEELS warm. So, I was liking that. Went to the local flea...

deazil @Mavic123456 Yes, a stuff infestation is better than a termite infestation no matter how you look at it. But still it's hard to get rid of things I absolutely love. At least with the termites you can call in someone else - exterminator - to get...

Good day my sweet winter children. Today, we have too many cooks, yeah right, sooooo many cooks. Do you know the saying "Too many cooks spoil the soup." ? (pessimistic point of view but could really be true) however, in...

deazil @Mavic123456 It's good to live an active life. Although I do a lot of things that are healthy for me that's one thing I don't do - activity - and it's one of the most important things. I think procrastinating is almost as bad of a habit as smoking.

I have been away for a long long time, many things have changed in my life since then and I realized that a lot have changed here also. I was very happy to see some of the familiar people and regular members are still here....

deazil @besweet I've been reading some of your comments and I see you've gotten married and traveled. Sounds like you're keeping yourself busy, too, and making new friends. As for me, old age is taking it toll, I've had a few setbacks but I'm basically...

deazil @sprite1950 I love animals too. My mother didn't like me to cook much until I was about 15. I was rather um, inept in the kitchen,to put it nicely, it was better to keep me out of there. I'm sure Teagan will do okay in school, she'll find her...

deazil @Mavic123456 I never get bored. I think I could sit and stare at the wall for hours rather than get up and do anything. I know that's a bit of an exaggeration - I probably shouldn't make myself sound worse than I am. I need motivation.

deazil @sprite1950 Given the circumstances I don't know anyone who wouldn't have done the same. Years ago there was a guy where I worked, he and his wife were raising their granddaughter. You could see in his face the love he had for her when he talked about her. She...

deazil @sprite1950 You're lucky that you're able to take care of your granddaughter, she'll have a good upbringing. She's also lucky to have you. It worked out nicely for you - it's good that you were retiring. It's not easy raising kids today but it's good to have...

deazil @Mavic123456 That would be great! But I think you'd get tired of my lazy ways. Or maybe you wouldn't let me be lazy. hahaha I think that's what would probably happen.

deazil @sprite1950 Yes, it's quite a drive but I try to eat only organic foods and that's the closest place to where I live. There are a lot of farms in that area too and I shop at them as well. I like to support local businesses. I desperately need motivation. I...

deazil @sprite1950 Thanks. :) I'm fully recovered from the surgery, but I have a lot of things to do now, things I've neglected for far too long. And when I look at the problems I have must admit that 98% of them are my own fault, I have no one else to blame....

deazil @sprite1950 TY. Five days after he passed away I had to have emergency surgery on my throat. It's been a bad start to the new year. I also relied on my partner to ferry me around, for me that was a mistake. I think it's good to have a car, as you said - in...

deazil @Mavic123456 "Change is good" - that's what they say. I don't like change but I realize that the best way to deal with change is to become an active part of it. I remember back in the early '80s at my workplace, my boss had come up with a new computer system...
