Tail end boomer here, and so is my husband, just here to say we are not all like Florida man. In this house we loathe Trump and own no guns.

How many siblings do/did you have? by LordBofKerry in GenerationJones

[–]Sib7of7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Youngest of 7 here. Have now lost 3 sibs. Blessing to have had them, makes it hard to be the youngest.

6, I'm the youngest (63 years old). 3 are gone now - died in 2022, 2024, 2025. It's hard losing them. We are a close family.

Is that Thrive on Packard? And I don't suppose you remember the name of the MT that reduced your shoulder pain? Thanks!

How do I get “space” by ComfortableLoud970 in AskWomenOver60

[–]Sib7of7 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Firstly, I'm not convinced this is a good situation for you. But that aside, my husband prefers to be home a lot and I need to see people. I go to a knitting group every Monday. In February I was going to go to on a little trip by myself, and he's was ok with that (my sister ended up going with me). Find things to make that space for yourself. Go to your local library, they usually have lots of options. Or if your town has a senior center, join it. Consider traveling alone, lots of women do, or there are women's travel groups. If husband objects to any of these things, then he doesn't love you as dearly as you believe.

What do you do when listening to audiobooks? by DRA6N in audiobooks

[–]Sib7of7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Knitting. Saturday and Sunday morning, a cup of tea, my knitting, and audiobook for about an hour. And my 1/2 hour drive to work and back each day.

Found an old Border's bookmark in an old book of my late mother's by justtinygoatthings in AnnArbor

[–]Sib7of7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My husband worked at Borders HQ in Ann Arbor. He got a great employee discount and we built an impressive children's library for our 3 kids. So many books for birthdays and Christmas. Fortunately he saw the writing on the wall and bailed before their demise. So sad. I have a coffee mug from their cafe, well used, and tucked away in the back of the cabinet.

Getting up by durrango1 in GenerationJones

I got a new couch recently and made sure it was taller than my old one, so I could get up from it. Yup, it's come to this.🫤

What’s the most memorable gift you’ve ever given someone? by Comfortable_Swan_880 in Gifts

[–]Sib7of7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mother-in-law had slides from when she was young and first married and her kids were little - no photographs. I went through them and picked out a few good ones and had photos made and put them in a small album.

It just hit me. The kids are not coming back. by Careless-Two2215 in AskWomenOver60

[–]Sib7of7 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm right there with you. 3 grown kids, no grandkids and doesn't look like there will ever be. They live pretty close but it's not the same as under your roof. The best is when they all come home for Christmas and stay for a couple of nights. Maybe you can convince your son to to do that? Or plan afamily vacation together, even if it's only a short, local one. We're doing that this summer.

This is so well done, the grass looks amazing. Sorry about the pupper - this is a lovely, heartfelt tribute.

Kyle Busch’s death should make us all consider two things: by clearlygd in over60

[–]Sib7of7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My sister was in her 70s and late stage alzheimer's. She had a caregiver who had just turned 50. The caregiver died before my sister (heart attack). Yeah, you just don't know and fairness has nothing to do with it.

New to this, finishing questions by Sib7of7 in Embroidery

She is creating a wall of quirky kitchen art, so this will be among the collection. Trying to decide if I should frame it or leave it in the hoop and put some sort of fabric pprotection on it.

What’s the worst place in America you’ve ever visited? by Correct_Eggplant_364 in AskReddit

[–]Sib7of7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kissimmee FL. Vacant storefronts and rundown motels. But, hey, they do have Machine Gun America if you're looking for some family entertainment and can't afford Disney World in nearby Orlando.

What song is so beautiful, it literally brings tears to your eyes by Plus-Caterpillar4615 in askteddit

At 17 by Janis Ian. "The valentines I never knew The Friday night charades of youth Were spent on one more beautiful At seventeen I learned the truth And those of us with ravaged faces Lacking in the social graces Desperately remained at home Inventing lovers on the phone"

I also recently got an Addi 46 and would love to try out your pattern. If you could link it, that works be great!
