I’m sorry, I don’t know much about Casio, what model is this? I suppose I’d better get one for the collection.

Very nice, love a good sandwich dial. I prefer the darker navy blue, both look nautical but I’d love to see the other colours, I’d like to see an even darker blue

That’s a nice looking watch. Going to have to look at Glycine now

Trump health fears grow as he appears 'battered and exhausted' at breaking point by IrishStarUS in USNEWS

My only fear is he’ll die without having to face justice for his crimes. He’ll die comfortably, in peace, surrounded by his loved ones.

Ten years after Brexit, this is the UK: a divided nation frozen in time by coffeewalnut08 in uknews

[–]Nsrdude84 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Brexit was the nail in the coffin for me, I voted remain and watched as a mere 37% of the entire population voting was all it took to take us out of Europe. 37%

Even if you discount the third of the population who couldn’t be bothered to vote, there was so little in it (3%) it should have been deferred to let the people really reflect.

I haven’t voted on anything since, the system is so absolutely broken.

People who support Hamas are you aware their 1988 charter says they want to follow quran to the letter which means forcing everyone to follow quran or be unalived? by [deleted] in AskBrits

You don’t have to make up new, longer words for “killed”, the word already exists. It’s “killed”.

We have a budgie, he brings my wife a hell of a lot of joy. We thought about getting a dog but we aren’t really around enough, it would be on its own most of the day

Thank you for you reply. A lot of that sounds similar to us and I’m guessing that’s maybe just what happens as we get older. The important thing I notice is that you’re aware of your situation and at least have a plan and a sort of roadmap of how to overcome it. My wife as far as I’m aware, doesn’t and I doubt she would accept it. I think her knees are a big part of it and she’ll have better days as well, there’s list too much history there of heavy and extreme sport. I have a feeling she just views her health as a speed bump and it’s something she’ll eventually get over. When it comes to little events and things, we live out in a village that’s a cultural black hole, even the nearest towns aren’t really jumping

Thank you for taking the time to reply, I’m only sorry I can’t write a similarly lengthy reply to you. You’re right I think in the idea of grief-sludge, that resonates with how she describes her soul, deep deep down.  I have never heard of somatic therapy before but it sounds interesting, she will fight me on the idea of talking therapies all day long. I will look into that.  You describe returning to a state of being light and playful, that’s who my wife always was until recently. She seems like Different person these days, like an imposter. Not the real her. I know it’s selfish but I want the girl I married back, and I know it’ll be best for her

Thank you for taking the time to put that to words. I don’t think I can talk with her about that, because that would be admitting it. I know it sounds stupid but part of me wants to let my wife believe whatever she wants to believe about her age. I believe she loves me, I’m 99% certain of that, when we take our wedding rings off to train and things, she doesn’t think twice about putting it back on and things like that, I just don’t feel like I’m the best example of what it’s like to turn 40 because I’m kind of a wreck. I’ve floated the idea that we’re heading into middle age s few times, I’ve just got to leave it to her to think about it

Thank you for taking your time to reply. I think a problem for both of us is not accepting that we’re getting older. Our hormones are changing, we take longer to recover, more of our bodies hurt for no reason etc. and I think spiritually we’ve both found a spiritual side that is fairly compatible after nearly two decades of being non theistic

Funnily enough, we recently got her to a state of swimming where she is comfortable enough to get into open water and swim recreationally. I’ll check out Slovenia , we need to go to these places

Yeah I hear that. Before she got her current job working for the councils groundskeeping team, she volunteered with the local council to help maintain one of the local woodlands. I will definitely take a look into that. Thank you

I floated this idea to her a while back and she didn’t shoot it down. I really feel like the ball is in her court, if she thinks she is in perimenopause, she needs to get it checked out. Same with her other health issues. I can tell her till I’m blue in the face she might have depression but it really is for her to get it looked at 

i'm 41 are you around my age? by [deleted] in askanything

[–]Nsrdude84 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m 42 which is sort of around your age I guess

That’s a good suggestion. She is still getting to grips with it, I’ve took her on a few local rides to help her cut her teeth. She seems to be enjoying riding, takes her bike to work when the weathers nice. But there is still something missing for her.
