THAT TIME OF YEAR

It’s that time of year again. First we have a food holiday, then we have a decorate holiday, then give a present, and lastly a food holiday again. For those of us who can’t eat a lot of foods, these holidays offer ruination.

When I was a kid, I ate everything and got really sick…every year, several times a year including Easter. As I got older, I ate less of the goodies like turkey, gravy, and stuffing. Now that I am old, if 76 is considered old now, I finally limit my holiday eating to those things that sit well. Usually.

Don’t laugh.

I can eat pies, I can eat whipped cream. I can have a naked slice of turkey, and a pile of buttered mashed potatoes. Then Friday it’s back on the lower sugar and very low carb diet. Boy, till then I’m going to have eating fun.

Ahhh, you’re in my age catagory, lol. I’m 74 and sassy, LOL. j/k. I am okay with myself, right now, so yeah. I find some foods bother me now, that didn’t when I was younger. Oh well, just be careful, right? lol.

That’s a lot of whipping cream – enjoy your day off your regimen!

On my mom’s side of the family 76 is considered old. On both her mom and dad’s sides of her family their vascular systems self-destruct by then, unless cancer gets them first.

On dad’s side of the family 76 is just getting started. They only die from cancer and accidents. Accidents seem to be the better way to go. But you didn’t ask about good ways to go, you just sort of wondered if 76 is old.

I can’t tell what your new book is. “#24” just links back to this entry. Maybe we should alert @thediarymaster. He was here but didn’t notice. Is there a tag section somewhere that shows Georgette’s tags?

Oh, how lovely to see you here. I can’t access you yet, but I will figure it out. We are alive and well down here and missing you.
