friends

I have been a bit low in spirits today and it has taken all day to shrug it off, I've been thinking of a friend who hasn't been feeling too good. I feel that part of the way he was feeling was because of attitudes of others and part because he was poorly. I hate it when he is upset and stupid idiots with brains the size of peanuts are the cause of it. I read his blog tonight and I see he is brighter and happy again, that lifted my spirits and I feel better now.

My retirement is going well, two days into it and I am not twiddling my thumbs. I could get used to it I suppose but a life time is a long time. I will see what each new day brings and make each of those days count. I am not your typical Pensioner, in my head I am in my 20s it's just that my body is out of sink with my head. I like to be busy and on the go, so I hope my bus pass is covered for wear and tear because I'm going to be using it a lot.

I will be back in town on Wednesday having my hair cut so maybe I will look up some friends on the Shopping Centre and maybe have a coffee in the fish tank and watch the world go by. The cameras will be on me all the way so why should I hide myself away, I can even use my mobile phone or smoke out in the open. I may go on to smokers bridge for my Summertime fix with my friend, hope to see him there with GB. I hope to have something more to tell in my next blog, until then I will say a fond farewell to my true friends.

p.s I have managed to get my time zone right.

  1. That's quite overwhelming - to think of me in such terms, thank you very much, it means a great deal. I make no bones of the fact that I'm a sensitive soul who can get upset easily but with friends in my life, such as you, there will always be more happier times than sad.
    It's good to know your retirement is going well and I hope it continues to fill your days with happy memories.
    Age is just a number, nothing more, something people use to categorise and judge; buck the trend and forge your own path!
    Come look us up tomorrow I'll save you a front row seat on Smokers Bridge and dust off that old 45. xxxxxxx
