Oh no, we're getting old? @greenpea Aren't we supposed to be in total denial of that...
Well, that seems what much of society does (denies ageing)...
Yes, taking antihistamines & cortisone nasal spray (yuk, that makes me feel sick).
They help a little bit.

@Adge Yes well I cannot believe that my ex is now 59 the big 60 next year! Well might I laugh but that means I will be turning 55 next year 😮 I will have to start being sensible .... I love being older and invisible it is great because I can do as I please as a female because men just don't notice you and you don't want to be noticed (talking for myself here anyway). I don't know what it is like being a male but speaking for me aging is great 😄
Am glad that the medicines are helping a bit. 🙂

Yes, well I cannot meditate sitting upright @Appleblossom
Even though I keep on being told (eg by psychologist) that I should be able to, or should make myself do it.
It doesn't work for me, I don't relax - I have to lie down, cut out as much noise as I can, & cover my eyes.
Only then can I relax & concentrate enough, to make a difference.
I have been managing my chronic back pain (from scoliosis) for over 20 years, it costs me much sleep.
Brown is groovy & cool I'm sure....
I'm glad you had nice compliments about what you wore.
I wore only brown, navy blue & black for so many decades - that I now much prefer brighter colours.
Apparently I'm the only man that my co-workers have seen, who wears bright orange pants (I have 3 pairs)...

I'm turning 50 in March next year @greenpea So you're just 5 years ahead of me...
I've been overlooked & invisible to many people for most of my life.
So I would rather be noticed, only for good reasons of course....
I've always been very over-responsible, over-sensible, & highly restrained.
So it's time for a rebellious phase, even though I don't have a rebellious bone in my body....

@Adge o0o0o0o0o0o0oo0o .... I could give you some lessons if you wish Adge :P. A rebellious finch and a mischievious pea could get up to all sorts of trouble. :).
