I feel very fortunate that I am a butch queer living where I do.. about 20 minutes from SF. The lesbian, B-F, Trans, Gay communities are very representative of older folks (guess middle-aged on up is a better way to put it). I believe you are having this problem where you live and wish it wasn't so. |

ALH..Yes u are definatly right on the money,most of whats hear is college kids.Near every college has a gsa,we have a pflag that meets once a month but dosent do anything but have a coffee and donut meeting,there is something called pace, but its geared up for the high end folks and to get in u pay a pricy membership fee,plus anything they do in activities cost from 50 to a 100 bucks to go to but even they arent too active.
I was planing on going to visit a fue places to find a more queer place to live,but as long as my back is like it is that wont happen,tho I do keep hopeing for the best to happen.Now if I took out the bf and stone butch equasion and became a guarden variaty lesbian ..would it make a diffrents..I just done know.I just know I cant chang who I am to please other people. |

This just not good! I say move here!!! Something weird with me though, is that I keep thinking of moving because of having a hell of a time with arthritis and living where I do (dampness). But, I have to say that when I read posts like yours and by others that just live in areas that are really very constraining (in age as well as queer populations, etc.), I think think again. Also, my friends would be hard to leave. I also give just getting older a lot of thought in terms of ever being stuck in some straight old age home! My son has heard a lot about this! Poor guy... |
morning Loft dwellers
reading all this talk about moving to a better queer oriented place..... well... i do know......

Good Afternoon Lofters :chaplin:
I hope everyone is having a great day with laughter and smiles aplenty. Apropos my last posts, I am pleased to report that my anxiety about the cortisone shots in my shoulder were unfounded :clap: ...it only caused mild discomfort for a very short time and I had a very jolly visit with the delightful lady doctor. I'm not in unusual pain today and have high hopes for some pain-free months - watch this space. There was bad news about my neck but I guess one can't have it all It's a gorgeous day and I'm about to tootle off out to get the tailor to fix up my newest suit so that it fits like a glove. ta ta for now lofters :D |

How is Everyone????
Hey A belated Happpppyyyyyy Birthdayyyyy to Christie......You get better with every year!!!!!
Sorry to hear we have alot of people in pain. I had 2 slipped dics removed when I was 12. It was very traumatic and painful. I made a full recovery and was able to lead a normal life. Nothing like back pain. I had alot of crushes on the nurses though. LOL When I was in the Hospital I would put their soaps on so they would all come into my:flying: room and keep me company. LOL Morning I hope you are feeling better by now. Ice is the best thing when first injured. Also I am interested in the bargains you found at Costco. I work for them. People seem to go crazy when shopping with us. LOL Anyway have a great night everyone....sleep well Sunny:flying: |

Well, not sure if I fit into this group...I turned 67 this past December. Let me know if I'm an OK participant, or if I need to open an 'Ancient Group' (60's and beyond...) thread.

Good morning Lofters :cheer: another dreary overcase day here in the Carolinas... and it had been so lovely till yesterday...... anyways, taking mama to lunch today and maybe a little shopping afterwards- tho I hate to shop, my mama lovesssssssss spendin' money! :giggle: Hope y'all have a deliciously decadent day today with lots of smiles! :happyjump: |
I just want to add that Youngstown, Ohio has a great LGBT community, and while small, is very active. I have been out in all my jobs here. My mobile home park has other openly gay people living here. And we have all 4 seasons. While I would love a longer growing season (I am an avid gardener) I cant give up my fall and winter. Cleveland and Akron and Pittsburgh are a short drive away. And our housing is so cheap! I am buying a house for $10,000. Can you beat that where you live?

morning lofters wow its friday already......and i just got a load sent to me to go pick up that will have me end up 83 miles from home...... hmmmmmmmm what should i do ?? lol |

Hey Lofters!

Going to go out today - maybe get a haircut or see a movie - take a nice long walk. Was hoping to take some pics today but it is too overcast. |

Morning, Lofters!
Hoping it stops raining so that I can finish a storage shed I am building. I'm slow as it is, so this seems to be taking forever!!! Going to make some home made soup today. Hits the spot during winter. My weekend will just be spent at home with chores and my fur-kids. Was hoping my son would be around with the Granddaughters, but not this weekend. Phooey! Miss them! Thinking about auctioning myself off.... :floatbee: |
Flying by to say hey. have a good one all.

Evening Lofters. I hope everyone is having a frolicsome day with laughter and love along the way.
I'm on the opposite coast of the UK as of today, spending some time with the delectable Mrs.I - when she's not teaching, or studying or writing essays. :flyingweed: |

Goooood Evening
Hey Morning that breakfast looks very good...... Hope you are having a fine day. Thanks for the Irish songs. I have Irish also in my background. Actually do not know who my Grandfather was so I could be almost anything. LOL
Cinderella, Age is all in the mind. You are most welcome here. Have you ever found your Prince????? Ol' Jet, That is some collage of pics you put together. I bet you have the Femmes eating that up. LOL I am off Sunday. I will have a relaxing day at home. Maybe make some eggplant parm. Have a grrrrrreat day everyone. Sunny:sailing: |
hello Lofters...am feeling a bit under the weather. I ran out of my ulcer and hiatal hernia meds and oh...not feeling so well tummy wise..but along I go through the day into the next when I can go get my meds again! Dont you hate it how reliant we are on meds as we age? I remember thinking I was made out of cast iron. Probably was but I put enough alcohol in me early onto turn myself into a rusty tin! (smiling softly)good thing I got into recovery or you would have had to put me in the scrap pile!
On the other side of my emotions, is excitement. Tomorrow I am picking up the waterfall vanity and bed my sister bought me for my new house. I cant wait to have all my make up and jewelry in the same area, an area dedicated just for them. A dream come true! I hope your weekend is good...and that the rains I am hearing about didnt do any damage where you are! |

[QUOTE=softness;66571][I][COLOR="DarkRed"]hello Lofters...am feeling a bit under the weather. I ran out of my ulcer and hiatal hernia meds and oh...not feeling so well tummy wise......
I have a hiatal hernia and gerd problems and the meds i was on for yrs made it worse, until i tried apple cider vinegar, bicarb & spring water (not tap), 3 times a day, it works and its very good for anyone with athritis/skin problems as it regulates your acidity ph levels............anyone interested google Earthclinic.com.......... |
I wonder if this is why I crave apples when I dont have those meds....thanks for the tip..I will try it...

A very good morning to all Lofters :chaplin:
I hope everyone has a wonderful day doing what they want with the folks they want to do it with. Commiserations to those feeling poorly I hope you're feeling better soon. It's a sunny Sunday here and Mrs.I is engrossed in an assignment that has to be handed in tomorrow and preparing for a presentation tomorrow too poor lass. That leaves me to catch up with my reading and get out for a walk in the sunshine. I also forsee a movie night coming up, I have some fantastic dvds of films I've not seen for a very long time and am looking forward to seeing with new eyes, eg Barry Lyndon and the Last Emperor |
