The Old Folks Home

[CapricornFarm]

I signed up for our insurance. Get to the part about "click Pay button below" and there is NO SUCH BUTTON. I'll have to go back online in a couple weeks and see what's going on. SO. Darn. Frustrating!

I have that problem when using my phone.

Never tried to pay a bill with a phone .. Darn thing sends me text messages to
respond with a number 6 digits like some hacker would pay the bills.

Heeeelllllloooooo....where is everyone. Did all the old folks die? Are there none of us left? Why didn't somebody warn me that Penny and I are the only two old farts left on BYC?

Hi, Micro! Been in Arkansas helping DD with kids following her surgery. Back home and need to catch-up with stuff here and around the property…leaves are coming down in droves. I blow them away from the house and mow/mulch them to leave on the ground. Some may get bagged for coop bedding. The shorter days are not my favorite but temps have been mild so work outside is pleasant.
Have a great day OFs!

Good morning. I'd turn my biological clock back to 50 if possible - I don't want too much.

I love "turn back" day... right up until it gets dark at 5:30. Sigh.

Yep. At Age 60 the warranty is officially up and it's all replacement parts and maintenance.

I'm in that interim age where I am being solicited heavily for Medicare but not quite at that age yet to apply, plus regular healthcare sending me solicitations. Then there's Joe Namath, Jimmy JJ Walker, William Shatner and Joe Montana at every other commercial on TV hawking Medicare plans when the politicians aren't on there mudslinging. I kind of miss the glut of car commercials and haven't seen a product on TV in ages. Am I hitting the Age of Intolerance and Crankiness? In half a year it won't be an issue anymore, but all of this is SO annoying.

(pardon my rant. I'm a tad discombobulated with the time change)

Ditto. What you said.

Gee, Joe Namath looks sooooo old!!!

I am very ready to be done with political commercials. All of them.

Good morning Old Folks. With ya there Sally more than I hate those adds.
We do not have rain today they say. How did I get grandma arms?

 

[microchick]

Morning everyone. Wouldn't mind the time change so much if the dogs and cats would get the hang of it and quit waking us up at what they think is the usual time.

Hi @NotAFarm, good to hear from you! Hope DDs surgery went well and she is on the mend.

I hate those commercials but what I hate more are the ones for life insurance for final expenses. Keep getting those in the mail. Every time I get one I look up in the sky to make sure there aren't vultures circling over my head.

There is snowballs chance in the spring.?
When we are back on daylight savings it may end. ?
At least we may hope?
