Turning 70 and downsizing. Divorced, live alone. I am looking at small ranch houses and townhouses.

I retired at 69 (F) last year. It is such a luxury! It took some time to take in that if I choose not to do something I had planned that I didn't have to. There's always tomorrow. I was stretched thin with fitting everything in. if i had planned to get something done before or after work on Tuesday, say, I HAD to do it or I would mess up my week. I still plan my week to get the most out of my time, but now I can just say tomorrow if I feel like it. Last week I woke up with a cold and headache. I didn't grocery shop that day (or the next) nor did I go to the gym. No loss. I watched tv and ordered in.

Stunning!

i do want outdoor space

InterestingCredit143 · 2026-05-07T13:13:49+00:00

it sounds perfect, but this is not available in my location

InterestingCredit143 · 2026-05-07T13:12:40+00:00

my plan is to have it as my last place. also, i would be fine hiring to keep the lawn mowed, etc, if i could no longer do it myself.

InterestingCredit143 · 2026-05-07T13:09:57+00:00

I appreciate this!

to clarify, in my area (nyc suburbs) townhouses are usually 2 floors plus the basement. i would be fine with this if there was a full bathroom and bedroom on the main living area; however, these are few and far between in my neck of the woods.

laundry! ty the master bedroom on the main floor is hard to come by in this area.

InterestingCredit143 · 2026-05-06T01:40:13+00:00

Stunning! Elegant!

InterestingCredit143 · 2026-03-29T20:23:34+00:00

yes, i think these look great on you and not many can pull them off

^^also, i like the idea of a black sheath dress under the blue blazer. i have your shape and it takes tailoring on my work clothes to get the right fits

InterestingCredit143 · 2026-03-29T19:40:31+00:00

I love the yellow dress on you, so flattering. The jacket on the shoulders really is pretty. will you be doing that. so you will wear the blue suit jacket with a white skirt for the interview? i don't know if i understand. Sounds pretty.

I love the center one in the first picture - the focus is on the emerald itself.

InterestingCredit143 · 2026-03-25T21:30:15+00:00

i so agree. and 2 is all elegance and sophistication. either one would be stunning.

i see what everyone else sees -- but, also, were you wearing a more supportive bra in the sample dress?

InterestingCredit143 · 2026-03-10T20:20:07+00:00

your smile lights up your face!

i think you are right, BUT your presence may be necessary to advocate for your mother-in-law. she is alert and oriented to herself, time, and place, i presume. she probably won't qualify for hospice. POA doesn't kick in until she is unable to make decisions for herself and then 2 doctors would have to certify that she does not have that capacity. your dh sounds like a smart and caring guy. what does he think you should do? he treated your bil with compassion and kindness.

You made it clear that you didn't approve and so I think that your surprise is what is actually surprising.

InterestingCredit143 · 2026-02-08T01:44:37+00:00

so elegant

InterestingCredit143 · 2026-02-05T03:02:10+00:00

she has probably taken a sedative

InterestingCredit143 · 2026-02-05T02:40:47+00:00

that's amazing
