My uncle's wife died in the 80s in a car accident. She was drinking, a single car accident.

He sold his house, stopped drinking, in his 60s, bought an RV. Worked at Disney land in the winter, traveled the US in the summer, went to 48 State Capitols.

Came back and became a horse trainer.

All between 60 and 90 .

So inspiring

Just came home from my uncle's military funeral, it was very touching, and in a strange way inspirational.

Learning all the things he did after retirement, he truly reinvented himself.

Somedays I feel a little silly for being a 60 year old and finally learning all the things I never new because of being dyslexic, because I never new how to learn. Now that I'm learning how, and the positive benefits of dyslexia, I've been inspired to keep learning.

He totally inspired me to keep up what I've been doing.

Thanks Alva, yeah, I think blood clots after probable covid took my dad, but it was at the very start.

My brother went to Italy, right before they shut down, brought home a cold.

Houseflower, thanks, that's what I was thinking, to keep an eye on, her cognition wasn't not great today, cold be covid brain fog, also could be from being alone so much, but UTI is definitely something to think of if it gets worse.

Nacy, I had covid twice and both times had UTIs right after. So I think it is a good idea to keep a look out for that.

I am wondering if after covid, we should watch out for UTIs?

My brother had one after covid, I expect it had something to do with dehydration, he has never ha one before.

Just wondering, anyone else experience this?

Eva, your right finding something that gives you a purpose in life is so important, I think it changes year by year.

Id think even my mom feeding her squirrel friends can give you a purpose.

Alva that is excellent app.
Nacy, yes Jimmy Carter wants to be alive at least to vote which begins mid October. It is going to be interesting Nov, I think entire world will be watching
Sadly, his grandson gave update on his health and he is sleeping most of the time.
Jimmy Carter some years ago talked about longevity and what contributed in his view to this, one was finding purpose in life.
I am thinking about that often as it seems to me caregiving cannot be it for me, what if something changes drastically?

Yes, port strike. Biggest in many decades. Funny how you so seldom get the real news anymore, but just repetitive same old stories over and over. I found an app I LOVE which is CNNs app called 5 things. It gives a very brief paragraph on five things you really should know this this day. The port strike was one. Covers the world so you can imagine you get 5 IMPORTANT things.

Adding to this for no reason at all! Jimmy Carter is 100.

Feeling the same here Evamar.
The dresses may never arrive.
A friend told me something about a port strike?

For this new month, starting today, we are on a strict budget.
Considering cancelling a lot of automated payments.
Can I be strong enough to cancel instacart too? We will see.

Sendhelp,
I did that as well and felt stupid.
Ordered from one of those online store because they had those greek tunic dresses which I really loved in my fav store.
Well, it arrived, cheap clingy polyester, size small in asian sizes is like size 0. $40.00 gone.
Good thing hubby gave me Gift certificate to my fav store and I purchased two authentic greek tunics, which are beautiful and will last at least 5 years.
Great cotton, beautiful design.
And they were on sale!
For good measure I ordered another one from original store in Greece, which had sale and I got another discount.
I can wear them all summer, take on every trip and wear with snickers and hat for tour or at night with nice sandals and some delicate jewelry.
Diversity, durability and quality!

I will wait to hear from you Send.

Yes, the clothes are lovely and I noticed one of the models looked like she had to stand funny to not have the sleeve stretched. Truly is a buyer beware, when I tried to read their return policy it would not come up, makes sense now.

I just placed an Amazon order that can be expected before Oct 16, so something is up with deliveries apparently. Good thing it isn't anything I need right away.

Thanks for the update.

Something doesn't feel right about my clothing order.
It is possible I had made this same mistake over 5 years ago.
The names have changed, but the m.o is the same.

A beautiful product arrives, made weirdly, in a way that leaves no room for normal body parts.

I now recall that you must pay for returns.

Not worth it.

I just did not learn my lesson.

I will write again if it all comes out good.

I should have read the reviews.

Thank you Isthisrealyreal.
I hope they arrive!
Soon.

Wait.
Online reviews indicate delivery may be an issue/delayed or wrong product.
Coming from Hong Kong with no delivery date given. They did not tell me that.

Their products might not be their own.
Such a large selection.

Do the clothes look too beautiful to be true?

Ols cancel my recommendation.

I would feel so very bad to have misled anyone.

Waiting on delivery.

Send, thanks for the new resource for clothes. I am definitely going to spend too much buying the gorgeous dresses and tops.

I hope you feel beautiful in your new dresses.

Just ordered some flowery dresses from curvedream online.
The clothes all look beautiful.
Don't mean to fight the casual trend, but I feel fall traditionally brings on dressier clothing.
If I don't like them at only 35 dollars, I can wear them as a house dress.

I took care of my daughter and DH October of 2020 with Covid . I didn’t get it then . I got it spring of 2021 from the family I worked ( nannied ) for at the time because I could not keep any distance taking care of a 3 month old infant with it . The whole family got it , the 3 year old brought it home from preschool . At one point the two parents were upstairs in bed while I took care of both kids . The parents were very sick . I was able to function . I got it last and didn’t miss a day of work .

Not getting sick doesn't mean you are the carrier, Nacy.
It means you have a stronger immune system or were not exposed in the same way at the same time to the same virus.
None of this is really on you.

As far as covid , doesn't look like I'm out of the woods yet, step son , upstairs is pretty sick.

Just had his dad check on him, because I haven't heard him moving around all day.

If I don't get sick , then I'm probably the carrier

Good for you eva, if that's what you like that's awesome, I think if I lived in a city I would be like that too. I use to dress up a lot more, and people would give me looks,,,

Now I'm use to not dressing up and happy with that too.

Wow, cwillie. Is that because of the Candada USA thing? YIKES. I believe they are USA brand and wondering if a tariff on them??? Because mine were 30.00 at Target. Not even on sale and the most wonderful sort of navy blue-grey color that almost makes them look like well worn jeans. Could have gone with the tan. My target tee shirt, my favorite which is kind of a boxey overside short sleeve that is kind of short, below belt length--up from 6.00 in past to 8.00 now. Still a bargain though don't last forever with washing washing. Just about buy them in black by the dozen!

They look comfy though, I see they have them at tractor supply for 40.

Reminds me of the lesbian national anthem, lol it's a comedians song on Instagram. A friend sent it to me when I got my Subaru .I'm check off way to many of the boxes, with cargo pants. 😂
