  • Never Giving Up

    What does it mean to be a kid at heart?

    Growing old sucks. Being in my 63 year. I thought my husband and I would grow old together. I don’t want to be just a cat 😺 lady. I love 😘 him, but I don’t want to be alone.

    When my hair fell out, and it turned 🤍 white. I hated it. I colored my hair, and I started to wear makeup 💄. So my nose runs and I can’t win. Life sucks 😞.

    But what I believe is, never feel old, keep thinking positive. Even when you want to scream. Even when things are tough, just keep in your 🙂‍↕️ head. I am a kid at 💜 heart. I am not giving up.

    I still love ❣️ cartoons, mystery stuff, and keep my special kids busy with stuff. That keeps me going. The kid in me says. Kids know how to be funny and creative. So that is what I will do. Love yourself and keep saying I am okay. Life is for the living. I know my husband is watching over me on the other side. It’s cool 😎 to think like a kid, and still do what you need to do.

    Thank you for dropping by and have a good day or night wherever you are in the world 🌍❣️.

  • Learning Lessons

    What do you think gets better with age?

    When we are kids we don’t think of the consequences of our actions, even when we are teenagers we don’t think about one’s future. When we are adults we learn lessons but at a cost. When I reached my fifties I wish I had done things differently but at 60 I have learned to love myself and say I can achieve my dreams and tell myself I am okay being me. My life was tough, but when you have one good friend, the world is a better place. Aging sucks, but knowing I can live for me and keep my mind active and my body moving. I will not give up. Aging is a number, but what you feel like on the inside matters the most.

    Have a good day or night wherever you are in the world 🌍.

  • Coldness is not Cool

    I never liked cold rain because it was cold to walk in it. I do walking in warm rain and I did not need an umbrella. But those times were rare. Today I stay in and write. I enjoy spring, summer and fall. I take pictures around my house because I have a hard time walking. Life sucks when you get old. Being 62, I wish I was 40 again or maybe 30. Life goes on.

    I never felt good when my mom would touch my neck. It was a cool feeling. Winter I did not like either because I did not like to walk on ice and today I have good reason not to go out. Coldness makes my body shoot up pain and that sucks. I like hot days and people don’t understand that. Warm days are good until the bugs come out at night. You can’t win it all.

    I use to hate sitting outside on a cool breeze day, but today I enjoy it. I understand that I am a empath and anything touching my skin can make me comfortable or bothersome. Coldness will never feel good, but the warmth of the night or the early morning will brighten up my day.

    Have a good day or night.

  • Fighting

    My life is a struggle since I was born

    Nothing I did was ever right

    Had no friends

    And no one cared

    Alone I was and I still am

    No one to talk to because my best friend died

    life is unfair

    No one truly cares

    I fight to live because of my kids

    Cleaning the house day in day out

    What fun is that

    Life just gives me heartache and pain

    Family who does not give a damn

    What I say does not matter

    What I feel does not matter

    My heart wants to die

    But I fight it because of my kids

    I am alone, I am alone

    The end

  • Getting Old

    Getting older is not fun especially when you reach your 50s and older. You get sick or a bad illness. That sucks. I say you are old as you feel which helps. It is a frame of mind. I don’t want to live to be 100, but I want to happy with my best friend. Life can be bring challenges, but age is not stopping me for doing things I want. The thing i say keep your mind busy even play video games to keep your mind busy. Even do weight training. Even if it is light weights. Try not to get old. Ha!! Ha!! Have a good day or night.
