FindingNemo, I’m another who prefers to put on a brave face for the world outside, I find this is the best way for me up to now. I do wonder though, is it sometimes better to let the veneer drop a little to let others in when we need a bit of TLC. Sounds as though you could do with letting people in for a bit of support.

Thank you LauraNorder. The hardest part is putting on a false front to the outside world.

FindingNemo no shooting down in flames, just a warm hug.

That is sad * FindingNemo* but behind all that there must be something of beauty.

La mélancolie

I suppose I am going to put a downer on things and get shot down in flames, but we have not all been blessed.

1. Childhood - complete lie
2. Marriage - a sham
3. Work - boring
4. DD - estranged
5. Retirement - disappointing
6. Conclusion - God's waiting room

1. Childhood wanting pony
2. Teenager still wanting pony
3. Met like minded OH, buy pony ?
4. Have children
5. Buy children ponies
6. Have granddaughter who adores ponies ?

Foxglove, that was me! Except my shared pony came in late childhood, then my own one. I adored him. No ponies for quite a while, then a move from London to the countryside led to ponies for the children, and many happy days following their pony dreams. I still love ponies.
That’s me, about three years ago.

I watched the program and have wondered what I would include if I had to do the six tiles but keep changing my mind!

A long line of cats would have to be a border. Books, writing and all kinds of crafts would also need to be shown. Not sure how I would depict travel, theatre and the arts in general. Then there' s OH, children and grandchildren.

Childhood memories creates mixed feelings and work was just a job, but retirement is mainly happy if frustrating at the moment.
