Your “imagination” is correct. Not sure how to straighten it out or why it turned.🤔😡

That's a nice picture of you. I'm sure we will have many new female customers asking for your service. 🙂

Not even a cigarillo?

Cigarillo occasionally with my then partner.

To leave the world a little better than you found it.
That's the best a man can ever do.

And I thought I knew everything.😉

It feels good doing it. 🙂

When I reached a certain age I too thought that from then on life would be “a bowl of cherries” but instead it became “the pits”, of those damn cherries.😲 Now having said that I am to blame for my mood as I have found out I can’t say NO.😲😁

Saying No certainly helps, it is something we have learn to do.

More a symbol than an object 😉

A symbol of the carefree life, and I'm still not there. 🙂

I can’t imagine you with a cigar.

Nor can I, but at that time when this was a dream I just wanted to relax without any obligations.

I must say you are covering a lot of retired people especially in the winter time, when they can't get outside. Remember the day will come when you have difficulty getting around and wind up in your housecoat and slippers sitting around watching TV or on your computer all day. We just don't know from day to day what life will happen to throw our way as we get older.

When I was much younger and my life was hectic, I used to dream of the day when I would feel old enough to take it easy, eat Danish pastries and smoke an occasional cigar. I figured I would be about 70. So far it hasn't happened - I still am careful with the pastries and have never tried a cigar. 🙂

I honestly don't know remember where my 50s went. They zoomed by so quickly. I passed 65 several years ago. I now consider myself to have arrived at 'advanced middle age.'

Advanced middle age sounds fine. 🙂

Well done, that’s very good. I use Google Earth to mark out the perimiter of my cross country walks which then gives me an accurate distance.

You take care of yourself in an excellent way.

Excellent, daily walking is one of the best ways of looking after your physical and mental health. I read that walking on uneven surfaces like through natural woodland and hillsides is good for your brain because of the subtle challenge of trying not to trip up. Use it or lose it 🙂

What are your steps in kilometres?

Today the app says 6,8 km, an hour and a half. I can't say if it is accurate but at least I use the same app to compare every day.

Hey if we happen to be over 65 we are seniors whether we like or not. 😉

I'd give you a race if you were closer, but I'd have to get some sneakers on instead of my slippers. 🙂

I don't mind being senior, I retired from work 20 years ago, it's a good way to live. Don't you use sneakers outdoors?

@drewnogal said
You’re a little older than I but I’d never call you an old woman as you have a great zest and passion for life. My idea of old is someone who shuffles about in slippers and sits around all day watching TV.

🙂 Thank you. May that day never come. I have an app on my mobile counting steps when I walk - today it measured 9,700. I think it's good to compare on a day-to-day basis, preferably an average of 6,000 over the week.
