Is it normal to be unimpressed by a lot of things as you get older ?

I really hope so. Otherwise I'm doing it all wrong. 🤷🏼‍♀

Sadly yes, but cheer up, it'll be a lot more cheerful when dementia hits!!
@Adroneandastrain I don't need cheering up

ooo..theres a gaiman quote i like for this

I am old now, or at least, I am no longer young, and everything I see reminds me of something else I’ve seen, such that I see nothing for the first time. A bonny girl, her hair fiery red, reminds me only of another hundred such lasses, and their mothers, and what they were as they grew, and what they looked like when they died. It is the curse of age, that all things are reflections of other things.

@Neuman I like that ...thanks for sharing
I relate to that. I wasn't easily amazed as a child either, and with hindsight, I realize I didn't miss out on much.

I find everything annoying
@SkeetSkeet I am that way
I think it is.
I can only speak for my own experience.
Whether that’s a good thing or not, only time will tell.

It certainly is - unimpressed,and often disdainful also.
