Hi my name is Jennifer and I'm proud of my bitchiness. It means that I am a strong individual, and an independent thinker with passionate opinions. It means that I stand up for myself and speak my mind.

Going Solar

May 26, 2023May 26, 2023 ~ Bitchy After 60 ~ 18 Comments

Our new solar panels are up and running and we couldn't be happier. Polaron made it easy to go solar by walking us through every step of the way. While working with them over the past several months, we were impressed with the quality and professionalism of both the product and the process. What impressed … Continue reading Going Solar

What Happened To Warm And Fuzzy Fundraising?

May 17, 2023May 17, 2023 ~ Bitchy After 60 ~ 17 Comments

The doorbell rang when The Doc and Bitch were downstairs in the family room, both reclined with their feet up, intent on watching the baseball game. It was the ninth inning and their beloved Blue Jays were losing. As loyal fans, they were hoping for a ninth-inning rally. It was early evening and it was … Continue reading What Happened To Warm And Fuzzy Fundraising?

It’s Fixed. It’s Washed. I’m Happy.

May 12, 2023May 12, 2023 ~ Bitchy After 60 ~ 20 Comments

Early Monday morning, well early for us retired people, I took my banged-up, duct-taped car in for repairs. Some of you will remember my car. The car that I had backed into the plumber's van last year causing the plastic bumper to tear. The car that was also hit on that very same bumper by an … Continue reading It’s Fixed. It’s Washed. I’m Happy.

Film Noir In My Dreams

May 4, 2023May 4, 2023 ~ Bitchy After 60 ~ 13 Comments

Where do they come from, those crazy and strange dreams? Subconscious thoughts are interesting things that, most of the time in my case, stay in my subconscious. I rarely remember my dreams these days. Maybe once or twice a year when I awake suddenly in the middle of one. Whether a short snippet or an … Continue reading Film Noir In My Dreams

Will It Still Make It To September

April 27, 2023April 27, 2023 ~ Bitchy After 60 ~ 14 Comments

I am sitting curb side in my car waiting for The Doc to rescue me. I am usually not a woman who requires rescuing. I am supposed to be delivering library books but after my second delivery the sliding bracket of my rear hatch broke. I tried and I tried to push it back to … Continue reading Will It Still Make It To September

Will We Ever Learn

April 23, 2023April 23, 2023 ~ Bitchy After 60 ~ 11 Comments

So Earth Day was April 22, which was yesterday at time of writing. I honestly believe that the majority of people on earth didn't know or care that this was happening, even though it has been happening since 1970 when it was considered the birth of the modern environmental movement. 1970. Fifty-three years ago. And … Continue reading Will We Ever Learn

Don’t Ever Tell Me You’re Bored

April 5, 2023April 5, 2023 ~ Bitchy After 60 ~ 17 Comments

I just don't understand boredom. Even retired, I don't seem to have enough hours in my day. I am never, and have never been, bored. As far as I am concerned boredom is a choice.  As I child, I was the kid who knew how to entertain myself. Though I usually had a single good … Continue reading Don’t Ever Tell Me You’re Bored

Meat Loaf at Midnight

March 25, 2023March 25, 2023 ~ Bitchy After 60 ~ 18 Comments

She knew it wasn't wise to have tea after 7:PM, but what else should she have done? The doorbell rang just before that and standing on the step was Steve with a couple of bags of Rita's Oat Cakes. No she is not having an affair with Steve. He would need to bring a lot … Continue reading Meat Loaf at Midnight

After the End

March 15, 2023March 15, 2023 ~ Bitchy After 60 ~ 18 Comments

No one wants to discuss after the end because that means acknowledging that there will be an end. And that means acknowledging one's mortality–the fact that we all must die. This has to be the most avoided conversation subject in history. People prefer not to think about, let alone, discuss this topic; but it is … Continue reading After the End

Just When She Thought The Bitchiness Was Waning

March 3, 2023March 3, 2023 ~ Bitchy After 60 ~ 16 Comments

It had been rather calm in the bitch's life as of late. Some people may even call it boring, although this bitch is never bored. Personally, she considered herself very content because her house was back to normal after a year of insurance claims and repairs. She didn't mind that this calm state didn't produce … Continue reading Just When She Thought The Bitchiness Was Waning

Affordable Reads

February 25, 2023February 25, 2023 ~ Bitchy After 60 ~ 19 Comments

Have you noticed how expensive books are these days? As a person who always has a book on the go, I can’t help but be shocked to the point of wanting to scream multiple four-letter words at the top of my lungs whenever I see the price of books lately. Ok maybe the same four-letter … Continue reading Affordable Reads

In Need Of A Car That Talks

February 17, 2023February 17, 2023 ~ Bitchy After 60 ~ 23 Comments

The bitchy ditz has once again reared her unfocused head. It is as if her brain has gone on vacation. I have covered this topic before and admitted to a full range of ditzy moments in a blog written last April. If you are interested, you can read about that here. Focus is a big … Continue reading In Need Of A Car That Talks

Skip The Card… Buy The Wine

February 13, 2023February 13, 2023 ~ Bitchy After 60 ~ 21 Comments

Photo by Jude Beck on Unsplash It's February. The month when couples have fourteen days to try to find the perfect way to express their undying love for each other. I guarantee most people will still be figuring it out on the 13th. If nothing else, they will buy a card. Who's idea was all … Continue reading Skip The Card… Buy The Wine

Christmas In February

February 8, 2023February 8, 2023 ~ Bitchy After 60 ~ 24 Comments

There was that day in December, two days before Christmas, when the weather across the country wreaked havoc on travel and 370 flights were cancelled at Toronto's Pearson International Airport. It would become a Christmas people would never forget even if they wanted to. One for the history books. And because of this, JT did … Continue reading Christmas In February
