I like to think of myself rather cheerful, (even through the pains and lack of sleep) however do you spend most of your time simply being GRUMPY ?

I live a cheerful life. I had a triple heart bypass when I was 59 (14 years ago), and I remember saying to the surgeon ” I’m not worried, I’ve heard you’re a brilliant surgeon, I’m so pleased I managed to get home from the Dominican Republic a few days before I had my heart attack.” He laughed and said I was one of life’s optimists. After a seven hour operation I was proved right, lol.

Chronic pain, being wobbly, and a raft of inconvenient problems won’t dampen that optimism.

Life is good …. There is always something enjoyable just around the corner if you’re prepared to go for it.

After reading his posts for the past few years I think I can say with a fair bit of confidence that wigwam is a grump ?

I come on this Forum to get cheered up but he never fails to depress me ?

The only person who got all his work done by Friday was Robinson Crusoe.
Anything i post over three lines long please assume it is an article lol.

I suffer POM syndrome when I’m in a lot of pain as Ive got older but 9/10 I’m a cheerful go lucky person.

However I was once given a Mr Grumpy T shirt so perhaps others have a different view .

[Wigwam]

Taking about me behind my back, Brydo?

[Brydo]

No right to your face ya old grump.

[Wigwam]

Sorry to be late responding Brydo. Let it be known I’m a cynic, not a grump.

[ajn]

A cynic is a typically jaundiced person who has the rare ability to be able to see through common belief and see the truth and faults in today’s society….

Cynics are non-believers and do not conform, and have no interest whatsoever, in conforming to everyday society….

Cynics are usually disliked for their jaded and negative views…

Seems too much hard work for me Ww, prefer just leave everyone get on with there very own sanctimoniousness..?

[Wigwam]

It’s no effort at all, @ajn.  I’ve a lifetime of experience..

[ajn]

Understandable Wigwam, great to know it don’t make you grumpy..

[ajn]

I sometimes see people, their actions, behaviour or attitudes or maybe their position in life, and think …

I’m so glad I’m not you..

Happiness is a great thing, always take note when it crosses your path..

Maybe

Elloooooo

I to consider myself to be naturally cheerfull but also find that earmarking a certain amount of time in the day for grumpy, whingey, complaining behaviour makes me quite a pleasant individual for the remaining 60 minutes when I’m asleep

Existence is a state of mind, my minds a right state

[ajn]

Read a few post on here from you wheezy, sorry but you don’t listed as a grump..

Most of your posts got ?, saying that I’ve had a moan about the heat today, bloody panting Bulldog don’t ease matters either ?…

 

 

[Wheezywindbag]

Aaaaaaah! That’s my cunning plan (I do look abit like a 1 legged version of baldrick) I lull u all in with the he’s quite a cheerfull bloke facade. Then WHAM! full on grump onslaught ?

[ajn]

Yeah one day hopefully I’ll learn a life’s lesson, that not everyone is what they seem wheezy, haven’t quite understood it fully yet, hopefully I’ll understand it one day??..

[Wheezywindbag]

How right you are ajn. I’ve tried all my life to understand why some people do what they do and tbh its a bit beyond me but then I don’t ,or ever have, professed to be the shiniest button on the tunic   ?

I know all I need to know and am quite happy in my lil corner of the quagmire. Anyway anything comes along that’s out of mental Pay grade I just unleash Mrs wheezy on it ?

[Fastbike1000]

according to my wife I’m bloody grumpy  but when I’m on my own or with a couple of mate’s I’m quite cheerful, funny that.

[Wheezywindbag]

Alright ajn

Just been on another thread and saw ur flower pics. Am a bit envious of the hanging basket. I’ve had a go at them before but might as well just buy 2 pounds of straw a chuck it in a bucket. Have tried a bit of gardening but it’s really not my game……resulted in the at home nickname of the black thumbed devil ,courtesy of Mrs w lol ?

Existence is a state of mind, my minds a right state

[ajn]

Hopeless at gardening too here wheezy, not bad at the lawn mower stuff, however planting not really for me…

I just get in the wife’s way, however if I do plant or start some off, then well, I’ll do my best to see it flourish..

You need a chat with good old Tharg, he’s got a great set up going on…

 

 

[Ady]

I don’t want to be grumpy, I wake up, not feeling my best, but try to smile and make the most of life, until I leave the house where my favourite words seem to be “why?” and “really?” as there is always someone or something that wants to annoy me and spoil my day.
