I'm another one in this age group...60 this year....looking after elderly mum and mum in law and two sons at uni to support. 66 seems oh so far away....I will be too worn out to enjoy it by then !
Lurker here also 60 this year & looking after the 2 mums, was looking at the tena lady post with interest. Lucky me can take some work pensions if I want & both young adults independent. I was enjoying the mother of the bride frocks as I am mother to the groom but have to get to Sydney to wear it.0 -
Struggling to get going this morning but will have to get out of bed in a minute for my Pilates class. Would rather sleep for another two or three hours. DH still snoring away, he doesn't go back to work until tomorrow.

Can I please be added to the list of those suffering from pension deprivation, as I will also be 60 this year.:eek::eek:N1LDA:D0 -
Good morning everybody, I hope you are well and have a fabulous Monday.
Happy shopping.Mortgage debt 45,000. Thank you all for your help so far in helping me save to buy the house. I could not have done this without all your help.0 -
Morning all - still very cold outside, all 3 cats are inside but one is def going out soon.
2 problems this morning
Treacle is an incredibley stinky cat, sure its getting worse - I think its internal coming from his mouth and innards but he does not leave a smell on your clothes or hands.
Any suggestions please - Febreezing is not allowed although I have resorted to it beforehand in exasperation
I thought it might get better now they are outside a few hours a day.
He has his check up in October. I did wonder about getting his mouth checked out by the vet but its a major thing for cats to have teeth scrapped. I don't think its a dental problem
more like really bad halitosis
He is such a loving cat, wants to be snuggled up to you as soon as you flop on the sofa, he is nestled up on my arm now and at the desk he insists on sitting on my lap while I try to type even though it means he gets side swiped every few seconds
But the smell is atrocious“Create all the happiness you are able to create; remove all the misery you are able to remove. Every day will allow you, --will invite you to add something to the pleasure of others, --or to diminish something of their pains.”0 -

I am sure it will make itself clear in the next day or so ...0 -

Have you tried toothpaste, from the vets for the cat? My cat loved it. I'd put a little bit on my finger tip and she'd quite happily lick it off.0 -

2nd problem is why won't my iPad and iPhone speak to me
I sleep with the phone under the pillow and the iPad next to me. I had Messages come through via FB messages this morning about 6.30 but no pings or vibrates and even the bank update which comes through as a text on a Monday morning never produced a ping
OH brings tea about this time or at least just before 7 so I must have been awake and I wished I'd checked them both at that time
Is there anything I need to check is switched on?
I always used to be very against taking phones to bed, not that anyone ever took any notice of me. It drives me crackers whenever we have visitors staying over - at all hours of the night phones are pinging
But when youngest son went away last summer I started taking the phone and now the iPad as well - he is 8 hours ahead so on the rate occasions we hear from him its at very odd times of the night - usually about 4 our time“Create all the happiness you are able to create; remove all the misery you are able to remove.
