My 40s were so much fun!
You look younger, that helps. 😊
You’ll have a blast. 😀🌸
I agree. 40s is when I really decided I just don't care. If I want to ogle some hot young thing it's ok cause I'm 40! Haha
But really it's kind of the decade where you just feel comfortable and confident2 -

I’m wondering how it was for my son today working outside up at the yard with his dad.
I feel for him.0 -
Sometimes I get weeks of regret thinking of if I’d continued in the Royal Marines - with everything happening in the world, it seems to hit me more and more lately.
Left due to injury but still doesn’t make it any easier.
Seems to be hitting me like a ton of bricks at the moment.

I'm older than you--67, so I'll leave you with a few thoughts. First off, sometimes it's just time to move on. Regrets about the past are not productive. Then, I've noticed that when I look back on my life, things always happened for a reason. Something always came along to nudge me onto something else--usually better. Your injury could have been the catalyst. If you're not happy where you are now, start looking around for better. Evaluate as best you can. Good luck.3 -

Thanks for the kind comment;
I’m actually pretty happy with life overall (though maybe my comment didn’t come across that way).
It’s just the what-ifs that creep up sometimes!
But yes, I agree that things seem to happen for a reason and over time, paths change and we move on to new places.1 -

Even though regrets are not productive, they happen.
They have a way of creeping into our brain, working themselves around, and then leaving again. Probably to most everyone. It's what we do with them that counts.
Stay happy!0 -
Argh, who know it'd be so hard to find a good set of matte black porcelain dishes that don't include mugs that isn't made in China?? I don't want to 'settle' for something I don't really like, for the prices they charge. 1

I don't think these are regrets per se. I feel you're more thinking of what could have been a different path. As you said the "what-ifs".
As long as you don't wallow it's interesting and kind of fun to think about how different your life could be if you had done this or that. It's neat the paths we take and amazing how all our past experiences shape our current.1 -
Should not have passed on the freezer pops when I got groceries- 🤦♂️ Lesson learned4

First of all, you look like you’re in your early 30’s. You’re going to rock 40.
The 40’s were the best years for me. 50’s have been kicking my *kitten*. I’m fighting back tho. ❤️
You definitely are! Keep making that bombass Lemonade out of those lemons ❤1 -
I'm ready for the weekend! It's been a hard week at work. 😢2

The reality of the situation is becoming more and more clear to me.1

I am anticipating an extremely quiet day at work. Does MFP have any suggestions on how to spend 7ish hours in a pleasant, edifying, & somehow productive way within the confines of an office? Thanks in advance1

Flirt, read, make obscene phone calls, get drunk......you might not want my advice.

Current thought- My birthday will probably end up a sad event like last year because despite the deep desire for change my mental health is making everything a huge challenge.
