    how much of a necessity is it to have a car where you live?

    I can walk most everywhere or take public transportation, but I have a car anyway - for bad weather, big shopping trips, visiting friends who don't live in the city. Average under 4,000 miles a year.

    Hobbies you have had that have gotten out of hand?

    I have a needlepoint obsession - it calms me down and stops me from snacking at night. I like to do it - but I never send to the finisher - have over 100 finished canvases that can be made into something - pillows, purses, ornaments etc. Doesn't really go with my decor, but I continue to spend...

    Dating Red Flags?

    Different political views I can handle as long as they aren’t cult like. I couldn’t date a Qanon person. My go to question is do you have a passport and where have you traveled.

    What do you do for insomnia?

    I have tried everything - changing my diet, eliminating caffeine, meditation, massage, yoga, sleep study, alcohol, melatonin, new mattress, new pillows, new sheets. At age 55 on the bad nights, I use marijuana gummies for sleep. It has been life changing!! I no longer am exhausted, my doctor...

    Anyone else watching the news for that freak Epstein's Creeper List?

    The problem with this is it presumes guilt. Whoever is named will be forever tainted, whether it was a business meeting, a plane ride, a party etc. After all one expects everyone named to say they are innocent! Hindsight is 20/20.

    Keeping Political Discussions away from Your Thanksgiving Table

    I am old (55) and no longer tolerate the intolerant. I know, I know it makes me intolerant TOO! So I chose to celebrate Thanksgiving with people I like to spend time with. I remember being a kid in the 70s and being at a table where my grandfather insisted women should not be able to vote...

    When did morals go away?

    Well if you are single and don’t want a relationship? in my opinion Sex work should be legal and regulated for safety. Like in certain places in Nevada. (Obviously no underage or sex trafficing) And honestly- there are websites where girls are seeking sugar daddies. And women who will only...

    What does aging gracefully mean to you?

    I am happy to be 55 and have acquired (hopefully) the wisdom that age brings. However I like to look "better" so I have plastic surgeons who have nipped and tucked various areas on my body and face - getting my upper eyelids done was huge - I stopped looking like I was always tired. And I...

    Jewelry insurance?

    It’s a pair of flawless diamond earrings from Graff with diamond jackets that can be added. I have the sales invoice and another appraisal. Sigh. Seems like I’m stuck paying the insurance. Earrings seem way to easy to get lost. Thanks everyone.

    What has been your clumsiest Injury?

    I couldn't get my birth control pills open (way back in the 80s), so I used a knife. Which promptly slipped and went into my hand, which then required stitches. Had to call my mother from college and explain my "kitchen accident".
