Yes, but with age ideally comes experience and wisdom.

The experience to disagree when really necessary but also the wisdom to respect the house we are in and the owner's wishes.


We might be better served if you actually watch the video, so that we’re on the same page … Because I don’t think we are at the moment.

Fair point. Sorry.

I'm comments were entirely related to the OP's original question and then what subsequently happened here.

I should have made my comment in a separate post and not in a response to yours.

All good. Thanks for the reply.

Haveme1or2, I see you still looking in. In case you haven't figured it out, I haven't revoked your posting rights.

You can stay if you like.

Normally, at a point such as this with a member, I would say that I hope we understand each other, and I would say this as a way of making clear that this is a boundary they should avoid. But, it would be pointless to say that to you, because it's apparent we do not understand each other, and that will be much more of a problem for you than it will be for me.

And if this isn't acceptable to you, all you have to do is speak up and then I'll tend to it.

Haven't sifted through all the thread drama, but to answer the question in the title, Yes!

I'd say I certainly am grumpier now than when I was a kid or young adult. It's not normally obvious, but when I'm on the phone with one of my brothers, I laugh and joke around like I'm 16 again. That contrasts with how glum I am day-to-day.

Like the meme says, though - It's not that I changed a lot. It's that a lot changed me.

I would like to apologize to anyone I have *not* offended. Please be patient. I will get to you shortly.
