Am lucky to be enjoying my time at this age. Am on semi retirement. I work homebased, full time, but it's really a breeze. In fact, I have so much time in my hands that I can accommodate freelance assignments. I have technology to thank for that--my laptop, hsdpa phone, pda, desktop, dsl.
Am not saying that I have loads of moolah to support my lifestyle. I don't really have savings but I live a good life. I have a house. I have parents who are both retired and own a farm. More important than that is the support that we give to each other.
If only I can drive, I have a car too. Hahahaha. Money was not a motivation for me to accept a job. As long as am paid a fair amount, am ok with it. I finished a Journalism course. Although it doesn't necessarily follow, I write. I enjoy it. Getting paid for something that I enjoy doing is really a bonus. I've had many free assignments before, mostly for friends. Am fine with that. Although practically speaking, I need to earn to cover the bills. When I earn enough for my internet, cc, water, electricity, mortgage, am good. Shopping is not really something that I miss although I love to shop. I've had my time.
I have the things that I need--clothes, bags, shoes, makeup, lotion, moisturizer (day & night), gadgets, etc etc etc. I didn't have all those during my younger years. But I don't have regrets. My parents have provided a good home. Enough money is good for me. I don't want to be filthy.
I cherish the relationships that I have. Am very comfortable with the people that I choose to be part of my life.
So I have a happy family, great friends, and a very nice bf.
Guess am really lucky.
Thank you. Thank you very much.
I feel good.

So now that's everything top-notch, when's the wedding day???? :)
Hmmmmm, this takes over as my favorite blog! hahaha. Thanks for mentioning me baby.
joni......hmmmmmmm ;)
Hard work pays a lot. Wedding with your man and children of your own, i guess, are what you should be looking forward to for now. I hope it will be soon...
What wedding? Her BF is STILL married.
Isn't your boyfriend still married? i'm pretty sure he has 3 kids and a wife that he lives with. are you allowed to have a wedding while still married, or have they changed the rules?? weird.
We don't personally know each other, but we both know the KNIGHTMAN. I was accused of posting the ANONYMOUS comments, which I did not do. Besides if I want to say something I can just say it to KNIGHTMAN. To ANONYMOUS, I know you mean well. But, you just don't know what kind of backlash I get when you post a comment. ANONYMOUS whoever you are thanks for your concern.
I know that there are things that should be kept private and not be put out here for the free world to read, but then again some people just love to express there feelings for others and I am fine with that. DO NOT BELIEVE EVERTHING YOU READ ONLINE, hmm sounds familiar KNIGHTMAN? IF you get offended by comments, then don't post a blog.
To LoveBUM, thank you for loving and caring for KNIGHTMAN, and thank you for showing him the way to whatever it is that he is searching for. I hope one day I get to meet you too and personally thank you. If not for you and Knightman getting together then I wouldn't have open my doors to someone I've known for 31years and finding out that after a failed marriage I can actually move on with someone I can be comfortable with and someone who loves me. From the bottom of my heart I wish you and the KNIGHTMAN many years of togetherness..good luck and GOD bless you both!
