Apologies

​​First, please allow me to apologize to the wonderful people who follow my site. I have allowed "getting older" to affect me so much, lately, that I have neglected this website, and as a result, you, who follow it. I seem to be  coming back from this awful condition (cannot avoid getting older, but can avoid letting it bother me). So let's proceed.

I probably should address the issues that have worried me so I will give it a try here, with you, my wonderful website friends.

​I have been feeling that I am in a void. I am surrounded by all kinds and types of older people and I cannot find a kindred spirit. I feel like I am starving, literally. I am craving just one soul who can discuss some of the things I like, dislike, and enjoy - one person who thinks the way I do - one person who loves all the things I do. The only people in my life who come close are friends who live far away. And they are far and few.

​I do not know where to find new people like me. I know I must not be so unique that there is no  one here in this city where I live. But maybe that is so. I guess I am just so different that I am really a weird person. But I did find a few before I moved here.

​I have plans to relocate, if finances can be arranged. My lease is up in 6 months and I am hoping a new move will improve my prospects. Anyone know a place I can go where I will fit in???? Somewhere where a unique soul can find another one????  I would appreciate any suggestions you have. I am willing to try to make the rest of my "old age" enjoyable.

​The other thing that has bothered me is my finances. That cannot be addressed adequately here, so I will just let it rest and stay with the above problem.

Thanks for being there for me even when I was not.

I'm sorry life is not being good to you right now Miss Maudie. It makes me sad that you have no friends where you're living, I thought we WERE friends. Obviously I was mistaking. It takes work to have and be a friend. The fact that no one is just like you, love the same things, etc., is why life so interesting. It would be so so boring if everyone were the same.

I hope we'll continue our friendship (at least I will). In the meantime, look ahead and try to enjoy.
