Time for my pity party!

I am close to your age and I had one of them today; even cried; I got three tickets yesterday and have to appear in court on the 13th; I have to pay for my tag and insurance which I don't mind but that will be around the same time my car note is due and one thing about that, I pay it; then my bf kids came and he has yet to introduce me to them so I have nothing to say to him at present; the parttime job I had hired another lady and didn't bother to tell me to come or not. that income was to facilitate the other income I have dried up and that had me truly upset; the Avon business I had went belly up but somehow I feel that will work otu. I know the edema I pushed away is coming back but I refuse to use the pills they gave me because they made my hair fall out and sorry no way Jose. I was told I'm borderline diabetic; I am trying to change my eating habits. I feel life is passing me by; but somehow I won't chuck it off because somehow I get a push to keep it moving. I really do. I may be an old dog but I think I can learn stuff and I guess that's the extent of this pity party. Ma'am; you may be big but you can walk daily; take it in bite sizes. don't give up. if you want we can encourage one another but whatsoever you do, don't throw in the towel.

First 50 isn't old!Second, You Can Still change your eating habits if you want to.Third, It is only May, The suits will get the NFL in order. Fourth, I will not stand around and have Anyone Bad mouth my friend like that , even if it is she doing it! Forget the numbers. Age is just a number. You are a good person and you deserve to be happy. No one's life is exactly the way they thought it would be. Just try to find some joy each day. Even if it is old tape of an NFL games online to hold you over until the season starts. Have you seen the documentary called Lombardi? That is a good taste of football.Rent it, I think you will like it. Just take it one day at a time. Hang in there.

I know how you feel. I am going to hit the big 40 next year. I would like to lose some weight too but it seems every time I try, it just stays on me. I constantly worry about bills too. I miss my daughter. I hate the heat too. I hope things get better for you.

hi blue65packer oh my goodness sos sob hey I am 84 and will be 85 on my irt5hday, wish I was only close to fifty. as for obese I am in the club too but you can do something about it as overweight causes a lot of your problems as the edema in your lower legs. just try to lose six pounds a month. get out and walk a little you can do it I just know it. what you need is not going on a silly diet, you need a more healthy lifestyle as now if you are not diabetic you will become one because overweight is the biggest cause of type 2 diabetes and in ones fifties and sixties is when it starts. the diaper rash I also get but I am trying to slowly lose weight just by cutting down on sugary desserts here at Gold crest. loneliness is a real bug aboo for us as we get older. I am glad you can come here to Mylot and rant a bit, if I am on your friends list you can p m once in awhile to share the pits of old age with. I sure did not think I would be spending my so called golden years here in tiresome retirement center instead of our apartment. but we were evicted and my adult son whom I lived with was laid off from his job so I can feel for you really.but you are wrong we may be old dogs but we can learn new tricks blue, come on lift up your head and shout hey I am only 60 and hatley is 84. oh I feel better already; try it.

My dear Mum, who I miss every day, used to say this when I was having a pity party about getting older: 'Well, my dear, every age has its compensations.' She was right! I'm heading towards 57 now and don't have a loving family around me or lots of nearby friends. I too suffer from various annoying aches and pains but know there are those far worse off than me. Strangely, I am happier now than I have ever been because at last I am comfortable in my own, wrinkling, skin. I've been through several sorts of hell, but I've made it! I am a survivor and very proud to be in the club! I'm going to enjoy every second of the rest of my life, and put a positive spin on everything! Blessings XJane

I'm so sorry you are feeling sorry for yourself. None of us expect our lives to become what they have become. I've been having a pity party myself lately. It makes my bofriend upset to see ME upset. A lot of it is my frustration about my current life. Of course, while he is a good part of that frustration, much of it is money overall (or lack there of). I miss my family too. My sister lives in South Carolina. My daughter chose to live with her father and is in New Jersey. My parents are also in New Jersey, but they are deceased now, and I miss them every day. If it weren't for Facebook, I wouldn't even know what's up with my cousins! That, and texting with my daughter and sister are my only means of talking with my family because I can't afford to go anywhere to see them. I have multiple sclerosis and no health insurance. I haven't been to see a neurologist since September 2008. I'm starting to go blind as a result, but haven't seen an eye doctor since 2007. The heat is bad for me too, so you're not alone! Stop comparing yourself to others--and start being excited that you have an adorable 6 month old niece! Pray for your nephew in the Navy--is he expecting to be deployed? And we can both pray that this damn lockout ends soon--I really wanted to see my team try again for the Super Bowl! I'm an Eagles fan and I still wanna believe! Who do you root for?

blue65packer listen here you are not too old to do something about your obesity. get to your doctor and do like I did ask himn to check your thyroid with blood tests. I bet you will find you have a low thyroid andonce you get medicated for it it will be really easy to start just slowly cutting back. You do not have to lose a ton of weight to be healthier. My doctor tells me six pounds a month and it will stay off.you can change, if I at 85 can change so can you. You have time so do it and you will better and happier too.you are not a dog but a human being and you can change a bit at a time. I double dare you to try it.

You should never worry about your age. Unforunately, it's something that none of us can change, so we just have to embrace it into our lives. I am obese too, but have lots 3 and a half stone in the past 9 months, so I am getting there. Weight is so hard to change, but you have to do it for yourself. Don't worry about what other people think, you should just worry about what you think. Have you been to the doctors about your health problems? You might be able to get something to help you, and you would be able to live your life more happily then :).

It hard cos you feel depressed, you are not too old . Its never too late to change, decide what you want and reach out for it, you need fun and happiness, get close to your family.they'll make you happy
