You really do sum up perfectly what (I expect a lot) of middle aged women are going through. Funny, I too am spending far too much time trying to choose curtain material at present (is it just me or is everything available just so boring?!) and trying to reinvent myself! Perhaps we are more of a "thing" than people/ society realise! It doesn't help that it is still more common that we women usually take a step back in our careers to look after children or elderly relatives and then when we are ready and able to make the difference we want to make, as you say, we are overlooked for a younger model (of either sex). Good luck with the curtains and thanks for your honesty on this subject. Keep the posts coming!
Clearly I can't add anything on the challenges middle-aged ladies face, Christina, still less on curtains. Sorry for taking so long to read this one, I've had a few challenges myself recently including running the gauntlet of NHS A&E waiting rooms, at Moorfields Eye Hospital in fact though it could've been worse. (I'm okay for now as it turned out, just another age thing. Ho hum.). This was just really to say: Well done for promoting Labour to improve the NHS, on Sky just now. Also share your disgust over this Sunak Italy caper, very well said. They are just unbelievable! Even more important to wish you the happiest of Christmas times, if only we could just not see or hear any current affairs reports then we'd be in with a chance of that. Best Wishes ~ John x
