HAPPY MAY!

So, I wear it as a TOP!

My legs are not ON DISPLAY!

I take it all in STRIDE!

Lucky to have THESE DAILY REMINDERS OF HER!

MY TOP can be found at COTTAGE BY DESIGN in Placentia, California.

TEXT TRISH saying CONTESSA SENT ME……….she is a LOVELY HUMAN.

If you are a PILLOW FREAK GO TAKE A LOOK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A BEAUTY in full REGALIA!

I have a funny story to share with YOU ALL.

My health insurance GOT CANCELLED!

Due to signing up for Medicare.

Long story short.

Some IDIOT at the ITALIAN’s union tapped the wrong button!

CANCELLED MY HEALTH INSURANCE that I use NOW!

Medicare is an insurance once we HIT 65 here in the USA for those of you lIVING ABROAD.

GOLDEN CELEBRATION; I think is this roses name.

It really is more yellow not PEACH!

ANYHOW, let me share a GOOD story.

So, I went in for MY LAST PAP SMEAR of MY LIFE!

Did you know once you HIT 65 NO more SPREADING THE LEGS and bracing for that COLD TOOL that CRANKS OPEN that area down yonder?As long as you have been NEGATIVE for that virus they have been hunting for for YEARS you are done with THAT DOCTORS APPOINTMENT!

I had NO IDEA………..

I celebrated with a glass of PROSECCO that night!

LOOK AT THIS CREATURE!

VISITING MY GARDEN…………….looks like a BUNNY with WINGS!

Look at his ANTENNAE not to be over looked his FURRY BODY and LEGS!!

HE WAS ENORMOUS.

Twice the size of a MONARCH BUTTERFLY.

FOOD FOR THE GOATS, but first let me share with you more of the MEDICAL SAGA I encountered with NO INSURANCE!

I needed a refill of medications.50 pills to be exact which will get me through almost two months.

The medicine is called JARDIANCE for the heart.

I tried to order by phone.No can DO cause I had no INSURANCE.

SO, I need to wait two weeks as insurance starts on the FIRST of the MONTH SO SAYS SOMEONE.

OKAY,I have enough pills to wait.

I call MAY FIRST.

NOPE NO INSURANCE.

I wait SIX DAYS.

I can get pills but they cannot be mailed to me.

I need to pick up.

OKAY, I can do THAT.

Get message on my text messages that they are ready for PICK UP to the tune of ONE THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED AND SIXTY DOLLARS plus THIRTY TWO CENTS!

$1260.32

50 pills…………..

AM I WORTH IT?

I MARCH UPSTAIRS TO CUSTOMER SERVICE.

ONE PHONE CALL and back down I went.

EVERYTHING TAKEN CARE OF I HOPE!

IT REALLY WAS TOO EASY……….I’m certain there will be a HICCUP later in the saga!

There have been many phone calls regarding this SITUATION which is supposedly resolved.

It seems the MORE HIGH TECH WE BECOME THE LESS EFFICIENT!

WE attended an event from noon to 3 last weekend.

These creatures were off to the side and I made a BEE LINE FOR THEM!

I WAS SMITTEN IMMEDIATELY!

So, its an outside event and we know the hosts only.

There is an empty chair and I ask the first group if I can sit down with them.

The response was “NO we are saving that chair!”

Okay, I understood someone was coming so I walk away, but hey I’m trying to be nice and socialize!

Can I sit there as I point to another chair and a different group of people?

NO!!

Chants the GROUP!

I JUST CRACKED UP and sat down by the goats.

WE HAVE LOST OUR SENSE OF COMMUNITY PEOPLE!

I understand the NEED to save a friends chair, but hey look around for another chair to pull up to the GROUP PEOPLE!I am so tired of who we have become.As another friend stated yesterday,

“What has happened? WE ARE SO BROKEN AS A SOCIETY!”

They were HAPPY TO SIT WITH ME and I them.

MAYBE it was MY OUTFIT?

(BRYN WALKER SPRING 2024)

TOO MUCH FOR THE WINE TASTING AT NOON?

I did leave THE HAT at HOME as it looked like rain when we left…………

SO take that out of the EQUATION!

THE “NECK SITUATION” did travel with me to the winery.

So, what do you think for a day time event?

Over dressed, too much, color not BRIGHT enough?

Tell me what I did wrong PLEASE!

Photo above is down in my backyard.

The creek area that I have tried for years to make into a MEADOW!

But YOU KNOW WHO loves to mow it all down before one flower can BLOOM!

I would like to SEE IT BLOOM just ONCE IN MY LIFE!

That is it from me today.It is MAY and its going to get chilly here.

I have a new neighbor who has never had a birthday party before so what am I doing later this week?

I am having a couple of ladies over for cake and tea.

Let there BE SUNSHINE!

As always thanks for reading along.

TO LEAVE ME A COMMENT keep scrolling DOWNWARDS………….

I answer ALL COMMENTS and the EMOJI’s DO NOT WORK on the BLOG!

Those symbols turn into QUESTION MARKS on my blog, so NO HEARTS AND KISSES for me!!

THANKS PEOPLE…………

I have been doing this since AUGUST 11, 2009.

IT cost me $2,000.00 to get set up!

WAS IT WORTH IT?

FOR ME IT HAS BEEN A WONDERFUL OUTLET TO SHARE MY JOY OF TAKING PHOTOS AND MY LIFE STORIES.ALSO, IT WAS A GOOD WAY FOR ME TO KEEP TRACK OF MY MEDICAL SYMPTOMS THAT KEPT CREEPING IN AND PUTTING A SNAFU INTO MY STEP!I went from owning an antique shop to posting about what I wore and what I did.Many of you found it amusing!I found it amusing that so many of you cared to follow me and recognized me clear across the United States!I realized a few years in that what I wore was not the NORM for the average woman so I couldn’t do the OVER 50 FASHION THING!There were other blogs to help you get dressed.I LOVED the Advanced Style movement and appalled it from the get go.It has been 16 years of me SHOUTING AT YOU and you RESPONDING with LOVE for the most part!

YOU ALL HAVE BEEN AMAZING WITH YOUR SUGGESTIONS AND HELP OVER THE YEARS!

I THANK YOU for that.

I am running out of steam and photos to share, but I will let you know when the LAST POST IS WRITTEN.

BE WELL.

HEALTH IS EVERYTHING as I have found out the hard way.
