Biddies

Definition:  A woman, usually an elderly one, regarded as annoying or interfering.

As a gerontologist by training I feel comfortable using the term, 'biddie." This describes some of my neighbors in this so-called active adult complex quite well.  Am I being too sensitive here?  I don't care.  It's my blog:) 

When their perfume isn't making me sick, or the soiled elevator they leave behind, or a comment that my shirt is too low I have a few more thoughts. Sweetheart, get a life.  This is not the Victorian era.  We can show our necks now. Plus your activity level is confined to your mouth.  It is okay to keep one's thoughts to oneself.  I did until now.
