I feel for those alone
My new boss is in a giant house alone. Well 5 cats and a dog but no woman
Can’t imagine life without my dear wife
I suppose it depends on the person. Having spent a lot of my life trying to get away from clingy, demanding, nagging, whining people, the invisibility of old age is a delight to me! As a woman, I can travel freely on my own and no one even looks my way. My money is my own, my decisions are my own and I am beholden to no one...except one being...
I remember from whom blessings flow and stay active in my church and try to live for Him. He took my husband young, but I don't hold that against Him. He's given me all I need and I intend to enjoy it to the utmost.
Never had kids...and I won't kid myself. If I become unable to care for myself, I'll sell everything and check myself in to an old folks home where I can listen to everyone complain about their no-good, ungrateful kids who put them in an old folks home! All I really need is a warm bed, a simple meal and a good book. Happiness is a choice.
