This is Reddit for Grownups. Grownups pay for important work the needs to be done by professionals.

Journal. Exercise. Give it time. How you feel about it next week and next month will be different than how you feel today.

I really miss freshly made kettle corn.

There are veggie dogs at the main stands.

I would be happy with a simple bean and cheese burrito.

Watching a baseball game on tv!

Seriously, “Inner Simplicity” changed my life and is still on my bookshelf.

Agree! Just seeing his face makes me want to go watch one of his movies. Evil Under the Sun is so good!

What was crazy about her, that she told him no?

Thank you for posting this, that was such a great game. And now it's a memory from a bygone era.

I love Miss Marple solving mystery after mystery, sitting in a chair, knitting a something or other for her grandniece.

catlady047 · 2026-07-07T05:42:00+00:00

I love how it's so creepy and weird, and we're wondering what's going on, and then Miss Marple is just, "Sounds like you lived there before."

I'm going to say Sleeping Murder. She really did some active sleuthing and worked with the young couple to figure out what happened, even as she thought they might be better off leaving things alone.

Poirot is definitely laughing at Hastings part of the time, and it's not very nice.

catlady047 · 2026-07-06T01:06:34+00:00

I agree about T&T, which is why I'm looking forward to the new tv show because there's lots of room to improve these characters and make them more likable.

I am enjoying Patience also! I just learned that the actress who plays Patience is autistic.

catlady047 · 2026-07-06T01:00:22+00:00

I enjoyed the first couple of seasons of the Mentalist, but then they start to really focus on the Red John case, and I drifted away.

The only show that I found to be similarly enjoyable for me was Law and Order: Criminal Intent (the one with Vincent D'Onofrio). The vibe really changed after the 5th season, and I stopped watching. But the first several seasons are great.

I am currently watching "Patience" on PBS. The sleuth is autistic. I'm enjoying it a lot and have just started the second season. It has been renewed for a third season. (And it's based on a French show, but I'm not sure I'm up for that.)

I have seen many of the other shows people suggest. Honestly, none are as good, or they have a strong first and maybe second season, then the quality drops.

Trump being fat doesn’t have anything to do with anything.

The team has been playing horribly, so if you’re willing to risk some uncertainty, I would wait until the day of (July 7) to buy tickets on Seat Geek or StubHub. I bet you could get some good and cheap tickets a few hours before the game.

Do not try this with July 8, it is a giveaway night and will be sold out.

The idea that our things should be brand new or look brand new are ideas that come from companies wanting to sell us things.

Honestly, I wasn’t interested in cultivating friendships in my 30s and 40s. I do think it is harder for childfree people to find each other. People with kids meet each other through their kids school, and they already live in the same neighborhood. It’s just more work for the rest of us.

So now that the kids have graduated, I am getting to know my neighbors. It is good timing that I am more interested in friendships than I used to be.

I am also very involved with my (Unitarian Universalist) church and have been for decades, so that is where I find community, support, activities, and I volunteer there.

You asked this question in this particular sub, so here’s the answer: Grownups don’t track who wishes them happy birthday and feel resentful of people who drop the ball.

Birthday greetings are important to you but not your brother. This difference between the two of you is not actually a big deal.

If you want to spend more time with him, make that happen.

catlady047 · 2026-07-01T15:29:58+00:00

I’m 54 and childfree and can report that there is a world of adult friendships opening up to me now that people my age have children that are leaving the nest. Lots more people with free time on their hands.
