Is that by choice? My health doesn't allow me to do all the things that I wish I could do, but I am lucky that my kids and grandkids keep me engaged.

My siblings and I were not brought up to celebrate and have fun. My parents had enough trouble putting food on the table. They passed away when we were young, and we sort of grow up, the way we were brought up. "It's just another day!"
The Chinese New Year is the only time we 'celebrate'. We look forward to it with dread, and we were only too pleased when it was over. We love our routines.
So, I guess I am one of those who doesn't know how to have fun. Actually, my kind of fun is to sit down with friends for dinner and drinks, and chat about anything and everything under the sun. That don't happen too often, as it is quite difficult to get all the people together. But I am happy to be left alone, to do my own thing. I am never bored.
Sorry to hear that you are not in the best of health. I hope it is not something serious. Cheers!

I love that you are never bored! I never can understand people who are!
I have always been very active and loved to travel. I have three kids, who are all adults now with children of their own, and I raised them to know that there is a big wide wonderful world out there. We did a lot of traveling and had many adventures. 20 years ago I started having issues with my balance and was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. Because I knew there was a distinct possibility that I would reach a point where I would no longer be able to function the way I wanted to, I crammed in as much travel and adventures as I possibly could. And I am so glad that I did. I am no longer able to walk, or drive a car, and I can no longer leave my house unassisted, but I really have no regrets and am enjoying the life that I am living today. I have learned to appreciate different things than I did before and like you, I am never bored and am so grateful that I am still able live alone.

Awww, that's sweet of you to say! We all have to play with the cards we are dealt. And just about the time I get feeling sorry for myself all I have to do is look around and realize there are so many others who have so many more challenges to deal with than I do and it makes me count my blessings. Besides, I think I have more miles on my mobility scooter than many people have on their cars!, Before my husband died we traveled all over the United States and I have used that scooter to explore Cities and deserts and gardens and waterfalls and mountains! Most of the photos I post were taken from the seat of my scooter!
