Me me me meme

I've been away doing family things and it was depressing - all the old folk are getting older and falling apart on me, and I'm worried about all of them, so I'm doing this instead. I'm also behind on Inktober and all sorts of other fun things, maybe I'll get back on track tomorrow.

I'm now officially behind on Inktober, won't have chance today as I spent most of it at Mum's.
*hugs* the old folks getting older, that I get, and sympathise over, honey.
*grins* I knew you'd do this ;)
You aren't clever? Pish! You're intelligent in ways some people don't even understand the concept of. The difference between you (and a lot of my fandom folks) and other people is that you think sideways not front ways and quite frankly that's a way better mind set to have :)
The one person who emails you? LOL!!!!

I think sideways? LOL! I wish I did, I always wanted to be one of those innovative thinkers.
Yeah, I'm way behind with Inktober now, I'm hoping to get a bit of a catch up done tomorrow. Being at my Mum's wasn't condusive to arting!

No, you do :d That's why you get picked for things like art exhibitions etc :)

I'm all caught up and kinda ahead of myself ;)

*hugs* the old folks getting older, from me too! Been there... it's hard.

It's the feeling of inevitability of it all - my uncle's dementia has suddenly worsened, my aunt is having blackouts but hates doctors and hospitals so probably won't do anything about it until she collapses in a public place again, my Mum's mind's sharp as ever but she's getting rather doddery... and of course the ones who are cantankerous bastards and you wouldn't miss are fit as fiddles.

I think you are very clever.
So there!

[identity profile] amberdreams.livejournal.com 2016-10-17 09:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Well thank you, so are you! :D

Hehe, you're not wearing cushions. You need to be keeping up with the fashions!

[identity profile] amberdreams.livejournal.com 2016-10-18 11:01 am (UTC)(link)
I carry my own cushioning! LOL

I definitely know the feeling of worried about all of them. *hugs*

But I enjoyed the impressively laconic meme! Maybe I should steal it.

Go on, steal away! Yes, our elderly are such a worry - I'm thinking of you and your Mum xx

How envious I am that you go frequently to Rome. And you are clever and talented. And I share your worry about the elderly in your life. Glad to hear you're wearing clothes tho... :)

Yes, me naked is not a pretty sight!! LOL

I feel you about the old people. I have to laugh (at myself) because travel is the one thing I want to do, but my phobia keeps me relatively home bound.

Getting older means there is a horrible period where all our old folk are reaching that stage where they are ill or demented, while we are starting to feel a bit creaky too. It is not a good time!

AWwwwwwwwwwwww, those were some pretty witty answers. And intersting ones too. I'll try my hand, but now I have to make sure not to copy you. Ha, well we'll see. Gosh, I've been so absent from LJ, I'm not even sure anyone will notice me posting. Real life is a bitch and I definitely need to get my shit together for writing again. Dang it.

[identity profile] amberdreams.livejournal.com 2016-10-18 09:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Well I guess posting will test the LJ waters for you! RL so often gets in the way of our fannish pursuits, dammit.
