I hope it sorts itself out and that you can spend time with the people you care about, and not lose too many nights sleep over it. Love the photos you added to your blog dear Mandy!

Or as I have learned to intense feelings can co-exist at the same time. Miss talking to you, miss picking up the phone, miss being in reach for one another.

Its a vexed question. While we carefully factor in superannuation,I know one or two people who have erred on the side of caution with savings to make sure of a happy comfortable retirement and didn't get to live to do so. Husband and I luckily travelled a lot when we were younger and have always tried to live by the motto "Life's too short". but now have to tighten our belts with our house purchase and daughter's health expenses. I hate debt so I think its a balance. When you think you'd go insane if you don't get away - then do it, but do it within the limits of what won't cause you financial nightmare. Tiredness lifts too when your kids are happily financially and emotionally independent - so good luck there too - I have times when I could sleep all week!xxxxxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-72316245999049873.post-18992563289170710122011-05-06T01:11:48.332+01:002011-05-06T01:11:48.332+01:00Oh boy......let's not go there.

I write down what exactly I need, or want, or think I`d like to have. And then I leave it up to the Universe to provide for it. <br />Have you tried? Sometimes it finds unusual solutions, but it mostly does! (Like, one of your friends can come to your place, or you can sell some old silver you don`t need anymore, you get paid for something you haven`t expected, whatever).

I ...I also relate to what you have shared with us. I retired at the age of 64 to care for my mother. Worked part time to supplement my social security benefit. I am also leary of going way into debt .. though I certainly do have some. I am blessed to have some savings and dip into that more frequently than I should I fear. However as I approach the age of 70later this year, I become more and more aware of 'not being able to take it with me.' I need a little adventure and I intend to have it. Trying to sort out what it might be. Maybe a trip to your wonderful country? It's been far too long ..........Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16619199535376925989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-72316245999049873.post-12313846147940128752011-05-05T13:21:10.029+01:002011-05-05T13:21:10.029+01:00Much of what you've written here today I can r...Much of what you've written here today I can relate to and a lot of it characterises my life too. I keep telling myself that in 15 months time my superannuation will kick in, just last out until then girl as I am not fit enough for a 'proper' job. So, perhaps you can do some car boot sales between now and September? I've just spent £13.63 in the supermarket and I feel rich! BHAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
