The 50-Plus Room - for

[Lilianna23]

Can’t believe I missed this thread!

58 here, been around a long time, mainly to write but I do wander into the forums sometimes.

Don’t consider myself old unless I have to move fast…that ain’t happening anymore!

Married to a Litster who is CONSIDERABLY older than I am, but I don’t think he has found his way over here.

Going to go back and read through, hopefully I’m not the old lady in the room!

You are definitely not the old lady here! You're just a baby girl! I'm not sure, but I may have snagged that particular honor! Welcome! I'm glad to see more ladies here!

I joined the Navy at 17, retired at 37 and have been at my current job for 24 years. Same stuff, different day or SSDD. This is why I joined Literotica to see if I can get a little excitment back in my life.

Welcome.

I was in the army - a tanker. But I am male.

Anyways - thanks for your service. My dad was in the navy. I shamed my family by joining the army!

Thank you both for your service. My dad was career USAF.

So what did you all have for dinner. I am going to brag a bit about my BBQ pork ribs. They were delicious.... moist fall off the bone with a sweet and tangy sauce....yum... the pic isn't great... it was the thick end....hahaha. I have never cooked these before so I am pretty proud of them

Excellent! They look yummy!

From the heart of BBQ country, a lot of my brethren here prefer burnt ends, but I'll take some smokey, tender pork spare ribs any day of the week.

Baby goats are so cute! Get a herd of them!

Baby goat yoga! It’s a thing! Just pull it up on UToob

One of the first things I did was write a book. i self published it and had a blast. It was a book about local history and I sold copies by giving talks to history groups, book clubs, community organizations, and seniors. It went so well that I ended up writing a second book, this time with a publisher. Most of us have at least one book inside us waiting to be written.

Oh wow! Congratulations first and foremost on your writing! How interesting. I’m a history buff also, but there’s a historically based novel swimming inside my head…I only need to put pen to paper now.

Yes share your recipe... would love to try it

 

[Missk_2022]

Lentil soup was on the stove when I got home. It was quite good.

Oven ribs are pretty easy. I'm glad they turned out to be tasty.

Yeah they were easy and I will definitely do again.

My oldest nephew is in reserves.... I have been told that that service is not as important but I happen to think it is.

I have made shrimp etouffee before and everyone loves it. I dont like seafood so I didn't even taste it

Everyone has a role and none of it is unimportant. It’s a large machine and there are many cogs!

Congrats to him !!

Seafood not so good here in Illinois, but I used to date a NOLA black honey who could also make a man cry, in more ways than one.............

It is important, I learned in 1991 that the regulars need us when shit gets real.

When my mom retired, she never had to come visit me, she was too busy with all the extra curricular activities she got involved in. She never had the opportunity when she was working to do those things.

Well Hump, I am 79, and there is lots to do, esp if you are healthy and can afford to travel. I have kids all over, and friends from NYC to Washington State, in Dixie, etc. Hit the road.

I still have a corporate job and I enjoy it. But my wife and I bought a small farm and I LOVE that. Keeps us plenty busy.

What does a gentleman farmer grow?

 

[Wonderer67]

Hardly a gentleman! Firewood primarily. It’s largely a wooded lot.

Also pumpkins, gourds, sunflowers, ornamental corn.
