Sharing My World 27-05-2024

Here is my post for Share Your World, hosted by Di.

What frustrates you the most about modern day living?
How much busier it has got everywhere. I don’t know that’s a “frustration” as such, but still.


What was your favourite decade and why?
I don’t know that I have a favourite decade, as such. My best times were at university, but that started in the 80s and finished in the 90s.


What was your β€˜best buy’ (for example: house, car, clothes, computer etc)
Probably my house. I managed to arrange it so that when I retire it’s all paid off so I won’t need to pay rent or mortgage out of my pension; It’s a nice little house, too πŸ™‚


Do you have any non medicinal allergies?
I’m slightly allergic to pollen, probably grass pollen. But only in a very small “itchy throat and eyes” way, not in a full scale “threat to life” way.

    As someone who is closer to retirement than you, I say “bravo”. You have the perfect plan.

    Now I realize I should have said my favorite decade was 1984-1993. A decade’s just any ten years in a row after all…

    Thanks for playing along. Great plan for your house to be paid for when you retire.

    We are finally getting close to completing the mortgage on this place. If we hadn’t had to refinance for other reasons, we’d probably be finished by now. We just need to live long enough to make it to home plate!

    That was a super plan with your house! I wish I had been able to do that.

    WOW! We liked that answers, Draliman. Granny says the feels the same about the first one. It’s frustrating when you’re living in a world where effurrything is speeding up and you’re completely different from that🐌 Great you could buy yourself a house, here the rent is getting completely out of control…it’s all in the hands of the governmentπŸ™€Double Pawkisses for a Happy Week aheadπŸΎπŸ˜½πŸ’ž

      The rent here is out of control, too. Usually far higher than the a mortgage on a house, but you need to save up a deposit to buy a house which is difficult when you’re paying such high rent 😦
