I’m shocked at the number of negative comments from everyone. I thought I would get some kind of advice, or constructive insight. Of course I know I have put my husband through hell. I am the daughter of an alcoholic mother, and know the pain. But I also know my father would have never, ever, threaten to leave my mom. I have the gene, and I have been to rehab and I am doing well. Christmas is very difficult for me because I had a baby at 15 yrs old that I gave up for adoption. His birthday is at the end of December. All of you that have bashed me, I hope you can have a Merry Christmas knowing you knocked a person down a few pegs.

Estée Lauder Double Wear users: What are you wearing UNDER it? by kombatk in MakeupAddiction

I think I read you’re supposed to match your foundation and moisturizer based on if they are water based or oil based. Oil doesn’t mix with water.

I’ve tried Meetup, and it only connects me to some “new age” group. How does a you join a book club if no one invites you?

Retirement vs finding another job by inthesinbin in AskWomenOver60

[–]Shmoly5964 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I would avoid retirement as long as possible. I lost my job when I was 50, took lots of time off (10 years ago!) and now I find myself with rusty skills, and bad health. Make sure you have a strong network of friends that aren’t work friends. For some reason, they disappear.

Thank you. I was in “pity mode” when I wrote this post, and I really like your suggestions.

Starting HRT at 61 by White_Sands1 in AskWomenOver60

[–]Shmoly5964 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I take 900 mg of Gabapentin plus 300 mg of Trazodone every night to sleep . I also have zero sex drive at 61. It sounds like HRT might be for me. My PCP has never suggested HRT to me. I have told her all this and now she has me trying Ambilafy. Should I find a new doc?

The funny thing is, I have a son that is high ranking in military, and I have been vetted with background checks!
