The Proactive Bitch’s Guide to Storm Prep

September 23, 2022September 23, 2022 ~ Bitchy After 60 ~ 24 Comments

The Bitch is fully aware that she should have written and published this post yesterday, but yesterday, her and The Doc were engrossed in storm prep. Fiona is on the way. She is now knocking on our doors as the rain has begun. She will arrive in full force tonight. Why these storms prefer to … Continue reading The Proactive Bitch’s Guide to Storm Prep

Women’s Stories

July 2, 2022July 2, 2022 ~ Bitchy After 60 ~ 14 Comments

With women in the United States losing such an important right, the right to choose whether to terminate an unwanted pregnancy, I believe it is more important than ever to share women's stories. The strength and resiliency of women all through history are what keep us going. We must never forget this. Our abilities to … Continue reading Women’s Stories

STORIES That Stay

February 17, 2022February 17, 2022 ~ Bitchy After 60 ~ 19 Comments

There are stories, and then there are STORIES. The difference is that, although both can provide interest and entertainment, it is a STORY that will stay with me long after I finish reading it. STORIES like Anne of Green Gables, by Lucy Maud Montgomery, which I read when I was a kid; Sophie's Choice, by William Styron, … Continue reading STORIES That Stay

Late Blooming

December 3, 2021December 3, 2021 ~ Bitchy After 60 ~ 27 Comments

I had felt old for a long time, like a housekeeper, like a working mother; but my body lagged behind. By fourteen, my best friend, had blossomed into a medium-sized-woman while I was still stuck in the children’s pages of the Sears Catalogue. Girls size 12 to be exact and just beginning to outgrow the … Continue reading Late Blooming

The Other Rubber-Soled Shoe

June 22, 2021June 22, 2021 ~ Bitchy After 60 ~ 13 Comments

It was Father's Day and JT was cooking. He had already made delicious omelets with mushrooms, peppers, garlic, cheese and lots of spices for breakfast that were the hit of the morning. But JT was also worried. Not about his cooking. JT is a damn good cook. He was worried because his mom had an … Continue reading The Other Rubber-Soled Shoe

Atlantic View Part 2

May 31, 2021May 31, 2021 ~ Bitchy After 60 ~ 13 Comments

We decide to venture further down The Atlantic View Trail. The three of us this time, starting at Lawrencetown Beach where JT and I ended when we walked it a couple of weeks ago. If interested, you can read about that hike here. Today the beach is sunny and blue and as always beautiful. There … Continue reading Atlantic View Part 2

The Atlantic View Trail

May 17, 2021May 17, 2021 ~ Bitchy After 60 ~ 19 Comments

We needed to go for a walk. Really we did. We have been in lockdown for almost a month and haven't done much walking since it started. Lock down currently means Do Not Leave Your Community! Or in our case our region or zone. Lucky for us, the trails are only a five minute drive … Continue reading The Atlantic View Trail

Random Questions I Feel A Need To Ask

April 28, 2021April 28, 2021 ~ Bitchy After 60 ~ 23 Comments

My brain works in mysterious ways. Something like that guy who is so popular on Sundays. I, however, am not always that serious and very far from popular. I am much more realistic though because I am a non-fiction, tangible character. Some of the things I ponder may not change the world, but they would … Continue reading Random Questions I Feel A Need To Ask

After the shot, certain things tasted funny…

March 23, 2021March 23, 2021 ~ Bitchy After 60 ~ 22 Comments

And by funny, I mean awfully disgusting. Like the chili I made for dinner on Sunday night. It tasted like it was made with shredded elastic bands. I thought the meat had gone bad; after all, the bread-maker cheese bread tasted good, in fact, very good. Nope; The Doc said the chili was fine and … Continue reading After the shot, certain things tasted funny…

Going It On My Own

February 27, 2021 ~ Bitchy After 60 ~ 20 Comments

No I am not leaving my husband. The Doc has put up with me this long, so now he is stuck with me. Plus he sometimes cooks for me, something I have always enjoyed. Instead I have left my yoga instructor, which is a bit like leaving your hair dresser. There is loyalty and guilt … Continue reading Going It On My Own

A Wrinkly Statistic Of Human Regression

February 21, 2021February 21, 2021 ~ Bitchy After 60 ~ 9 Comments

Listening to the radio the other day I heard a statistic that made me wonder about the nature of human beings these days and how such intelligent creatures have evolved to the point that they seem to be regressing. In other words becoming a lot less intelligent. I'm trying to refrain from using the word … Continue reading A Wrinkly Statistic Of Human Regression

Mental Health Day Trip

February 14, 2021February 14, 2021 ~ Bitchy After 60 ~ 7 Comments

It started about a week ago. An underlining fatigue. A lack of focus and ambition. No desire to work on favourite projects. No enjoyment when attempting to work on them. The monotony of the days was starting to take a toll. Personally I was beginning to feel like I was in the middle of the … Continue reading Mental Health Day Trip

How Do They Do It?

January 7, 2021 ~ Bitchy After 60 ~ 18 Comments

Do what? Create blog content that's what. I am at a loss to figure out how some people can create so much content for their blogs while I currently find my brain lacking stimulus and my life pretty uneventful.  There are bloggers out there who create one and sometimes more than one post every twenty-four … Continue reading How Do They Do It?

Bending The Photo Challenge Rules

December 16, 2020 ~ Bitchy After 60 ~ 8 Comments

You didn't think I would play by the rules... Did you? I was nominated by Margie from Back Roads and Other Stories to participate in the 10 travel photo challenge. Now I really like Margie. These days I live vicariously through her blogs. You should check them out. Plus she is an avid follower of … Continue reading Bending The Photo Challenge Rules

The U-Cut Christmas Tree Appointment

December 9, 2020December 9, 2020 ~ Bitchy After 60 ~ 2 Comments

Like toilet paper in April, fresh Nova Scotia Christmas trees this December are the product of panic shopping. This craze was aided by a few news stories discussing the fact that more trees have been exported south to the states this year. Apparently Americans love Canadian Christmas trees so they are considered a hot-ticket item … Continue reading The U-Cut Christmas Tree Appointment
