What have you not done in ten years?

😘 best I could do at short notice

@pennynoodles: ☺

@Wraithorn: It really isn't anyone else's business what you choose to do. People make assumptions on all sorts of things, like married women for example that don't want children. Some find it impossible to understand why on earth they don't want them. Each to their own, I say.

@pennynoodles: That's true. Expectations are one of the stresses in life. If we could just let people be who they want to be and accept that then we would all be a lot happier. I think it is awkward for people who have partners though to be around single people who are not even looking for a partner.

I think it's that so many conversations in social circles just automatically lead to romantic relationships etc. When people learn that I just don't do that any more they have trouble understanding it. Similar to having children ( I do have one myself) it is generally considered a normal part of life on Earth and in fact many people's reason for living. When people opt out of that it's not "normal". For many people it is normal to try and fix that abnormality in order to put their own minds at rest.

I understand that so I don't get upset when people don't believe me. It also has the side effect of making me more accepting of other people who are not "normal". :-)

@Wraithorn: oh,,and I may be 20 years ahead of you, but I'm about 25 years older. 😊

I did one of those tunnels about five years ago but never done the real thing.

@pennynoodles: is that fun??

I've done two tandem jumps. Planning another this year

@Ynotjenn: It was fun but probably not worth trying if you've already done the real thing.

Wow, well done you

I never have!

@pennynoodles: That's cool.👍🏻

I try to purchase new tires or change vehicles before tires wear to the point of compromise.

My daughter has never changed a flat, either.

@Maverick1962: But I have phoned a man that can.

I'm sure you have your reasons for it.

@pennynoodles: I do. I also don't expect anyone to understand. People presume the most outlandish things because of it but that is their problem , not mine. :-)

Kids are approaching the right age, so my time is right around the corner. :)

@rottenrobi: I understand what you mean, I'm at that stage and although I miss them, it is nice to have some 'me' time again.

Lol! I adore thinking for myself and not for the greater good again. It's fun.

Mine has the tendency to still drop things along the way when he comes to visit.

@pennynoodles: Now I pick up after the grandchildren!

@SweetMae: None for me yet

🙈

@Ynotjenn: 🙄

@Degbeme: 🙊

There is still time

@pennynoodles: Full of daffodils, lol

@Moonpenny: Already? whew..... I wanna be where you are.

@pennynoodles: Take a visit to Mr Aldi. My own are only just shooting :)

Good for giving people a prod though huh?

@pennynoodles: i used to think about doing it but....

let's just say i want to keep my ass intact! ;)

@sighmeupforthat: The trick is to do it quickly and then have that innocent look down to perfection.

Not if you played table football 🙂

Awww but I miss those freezing cold, windy, rainy Sunday mornings complete with muddy fields and showers that don't work in the changing rooms afterwards...

@Curiosity: They sound wonderful.....just wonderful......no wonder you miss them....

I still have my moments

You need to get back out there!

I just lost my taste for it. There is one black cherry soda that I'm absolutely in love with.

I don't drink it very often..... Ive seen what it does to a coin.

Scary.

I can't help with that one I'm afraid.

Nooooooooooo

true

Wow, that is quite something.

Ha ha, I haven't heard it called that in about ten years!

It's overdue. Do it.

@pennynoodles: I wll. 🙂

Do you miss it?

@pennynoodles: Sometimes I miss the convenience of being able to jump in a car and just go, rather than planning outings. But I can walk down the street and jump on a bus or streetcar. And there are cabbies I have on speed dial.

@bijouxbroussard: And with a cabbie, you often get a conversation.

Perhaps a bit longer than that?

@pennynoodles: perhaps
