This morning I noticed a trend within my in-box. The email titles were very disturbing.
I'm not sure which one is the most offensive. My knees are just fine (they may click a little but they are just fine) and I think that also addresses the Bone on Bone. AARP-I have been a member since 2013 (age 50) Hair loss: you are wasting your time. My hair is fine, yes fine in texture but FINE none the less. Diet solutions: HOW RUDE! While I am pretty much on a diet 50 weeks out of the year, I do not need some random email telling me how I should do it. I like my diets to include wine, Ruffles and peanut butter. I have yet to get THAT diet solution. So back off. Avoid Dementia: while I am always afraid of this happening, I try and do puzzles and games on my iPad that will keep this disease at bay. And while I often have the "what did I come in here for?" thoughts, I do have a pretty good memory. Of course, I remember things that do not really matter. Here are some facts that YOU may not know or remember-but I do: Florence Bush was the casts' hairdresser on Leave It to Beaver. Rob and Laura Petrie lived at 148 Bonnie Meadow Road. Miss Landers was Beaver Cleaver's teach and Mrs. Rayborn was the principal. I even remember the poem I recited at my kindergarten graduation! My memory is fine. Walk in Bathtub: while this sounds very convenient, they are expensive. Any ad that says $500 off means the price is at least 10 figures. Plus, everyone in the ads are OLD and have gray hair. My hair is not gray, as far as you know. OK. I have said my peace. I do not want some strange company sending me these disturbing emails reminding me of growing old. Now I need to run to the drug store to get some Icy Hot and Advil. If I could just find my keys..........

I love looking at real estate online. I also like watching the shows centered around real estate: Million Dollar Listing, Lottery Dream Home, etc. I also like the home remodeling: Flip or Flop, Love it or List it.... basically, pretty much anything on HGTV.
When I am looking at real estate through apps like Zillow or Realtor, I tend to look at homes in Malibu, Newport Beach, Hollywood Hills, Beverly Hills---and of course, these homes all come with a 7-figure price tag-some are 8 and even 9 figure price points! WHO ARE THESE PEOPLE? Oh, I'm sure if I looked, I could find a home that was under a million but what's the fun in that?? So, I look at homes that overlook the ocean or have an ocean view--because if I'm going to pay millions of dollars, I need a view. While I know that these homes are often staged to look like they belong on the cover of Architectural Digest, I often wonder what it would look like if someone actually LIVED in these houses. Where do they put their clutter? Do people REALLY have garages that are three white walls with no ladder, no shovel, no boxes of crap lying around? Needless to say, while I can dream about a big Hollywood Hills abode, that will never be my reality. EVEN if I won the lottery, I would remain here in Texas. That will not stop my dreaming and I will work to keep my envy in check. But I do believe a view of the deep blue sea and an empty garage is little bit like heaven. |
