What's the party this week???

Sorry for the delay - internet issues. First off, I wasn't here for many Decembers until recently following my retirement. Secondly, I stupidly posted before looking at my calendar. Finally, while I've own for 22 years, i have not lived here that long. Mostly I'd be here for a week or two when conducting business in Mexico. Four years ago I started spending winters here and will continue to do so.

Well, maybe not quite that long ago....but she is old.....

You’re dead meat if she finds out you said that. How much will you pay me to keep my mouth shut?

I'm at your mercy, so try to be kind.....I'm too old to be kicked on the street.

I have to learn how to do this......

Or this . . . . . . .

God, you are all wicked and mean...….

I won't be "mean or wicked", because IMO, "old" is a badge of honor in it's way. It means you've survived and are still "kicking".
I'm order n' dirt, too.  If your woman is old, it also means you've treated her well. If you hadn't, she'd have kicked your ass out long ago.  So...let's say anyone who thinks it's an insult doesn't realize that if he/she stands around on the planet long enough......they'll get OLD, too.

BTW, what's the going rate for being silent??

Hmmm What is the going rate for silence? LOL!

It would cost him nothing to keep HIS mouth shut.
Of course, his wife probably thinks he's older than Moses... "thinks" being the operative word.

She's so busy being "old", she hasn't noticed me or my age.....

Just keep digging that hole deeper and deeper. She’ll bury you in it.

Boy Slainte! I hope she doesn't read this.

Only you can bale yourself out. :) Idrews can't bale his way out of a beer mug.

Estás en un hollo y cavando. Suerte!

We have dogs that do not like loud noises and our neighbor here in WA state shoots guns all the danged time. We also live near a very busy train track with trains every 20 minutes or so all night and all day. At night we use a white noise sound machine to sleep with and we and our dogs sleep through anything outside pretty much. I love music festivals here in the US and even if the whole campground is partying I can sleep through it with the sound machine. During the day we play music, listen to audible books or have the TV on and really do not notice the neighbors gun going off or the train for the most part. For those with pets who do not like loud fireworks this is a great way to deal with it:-) A white noise machine costs about $15-20 and for us is worth its weight in gold! There are many phone apps that do the same thing for free but the volume is not always sufficient to drown out really loud noises with out an amplified speaker, at least for us. We and the pets are so conditioned to the white noise machine that when it is on we go right to sleep:-)

Wow!!! Actually back on topic!!!!
