Thank you for your comments. I’m sorry to hear you have the dreaded arthritis too. You never realise how important your feet are until they refuse to work.

Nice entry and I hear you.
I too have arthritis in my feet, ankles mostly; although, except for when it flares up, usually I'm okay. I can only wear sneakers, and at home, special shoe-like slippers. The podiatrist prescribed insoles but I could never use them. Instead, softer gel-filled inserts work much better. And I would never go barefoot, even at home. I'm just not used to it.
I hope your arthritis is tamed and you feel no pain at all.

In response to "Voice of doubt."

Yes, I do very much believe what we tell ourselves, in an internal convinced voice, to have a great effect on our feelings and behavior. So glad your friend is singing.

I find it disrupting to my sleep pattern.

Thanks for your comments. Yes, you’ve right about things changing with age. I never thought I’d find myself incapacitated. Weird isn’t it? I’m sure we all have had the sense that ‘old age won’t happen to me!’ It seems life had other plans.😂
Hope your recovery after your knee surgery is progressing well.

Nice entry.

Like you, I don't do clothes shopping anymore, and with the arthritis, I stopped walking outside, but I walk inside the house and around the yard. Things change greatly as we grow older and older.

In response to "Artificial intelligence "

It's like the apple in the garden, too tempting to avoid and look what happened after that.

In response to "Work Ethic"

Hats off to you! I don't think I could do what you did. On the other hand, having a lot of people fixing things while you are taking care of the kids and trying to keep them safe would have its own downers, too.
Anyhow, so glad you could and did do all that! That's some feat to be proud of.

I wish you a speedy recovery from your knee replacements. I understand it’s a painful operation but worthwhile. I’ll be thinking of you on Monday. 😉🤞🍀☘️ Good luck, Lyn

I agree the cheetos aka the man who wants to be Hitler and Putin rolled into one, his ignorance will definitely have global impacts.

I've been getting as much as I can in order before my surgery on Monday, February 3rd. I'm having my right knee replaced followed my left shortly after. Writing didn't fit in for me either. Looking forward to seeing more of you in the months ahead.

Prompt: Taking risks
What is better, staying safe or taking a risk? Did you ever have to make such a choice and would you do it again?

Life is all about risk. I was very risk averse until I was in my mid twenties. It was about that time we took the biggest risk in my life by taking our three years old daughter and leaving everything behind. We came to Australia, a place where we knew no one or even anything about the place. We risked everything to find a better life.

On a much smaller scale, I’ve risked abseiling when everything in my body was screaming at me not to walk backwards off that cliff! I’ve scuba dived in shark infested waters, been less than a few feet from a jumping crocodile and probably the most scary thing of all was to join a writers group at aged 75 and read out loud something I’d written.
