Hello
I found this site thru a local seniors resources group. I live in the US and of course this virus has me isolated. I am a retired minister, I have traveled some, raised a son and three grandchildren and lived in the same place for 27 years. I don’t think I am boring however who knows. I chose my name because I am curious about the world and meeting others. I have tried my hand at photography but not done much lately. So that’s a little bit about me. tell me about yourself.

Hello, Curious
Yeah, the bug has many people isolating. If you hit the chatrooms at the right time there are some nice people to chitchat with. Welcome
Hi Syd, Some days I don’t think the isolation is affecting me much because I go walking by the river or reading books or puttering around the house. then I will hit a day when I wish I could talk to someone face to face and hold their hand or get a hug. fortunately I have a cat who likes to chatter and another one who likes to cuddle so I get some attention and contact with another living thing. I recently retire at the start of the pandemic so my isolation was paired with the loss of contact with people on a regular basis. I live in Williamsport PA and we just had 2 feet of snow so there is white all around the trees are painted by the snow. tree limbs are bare. I spent the evening on line watching a program on global unity. Sorry for the late response, I am just learning how to work this system. Where is Shropshire?
Funny, I too have a cat and live alone. I do so love being with people that I know and care for. My daily walks keep me focused on the things that matter in life. I retired a few years ago, and find that I do not miss the intense pressures that my job placed on my life. Now I am able to relax.
Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year and stay safe.
I hope you had a good holiday season. It was quiet around here. The most exciting thing was New Year’s Eve with a zoom party. Today I am trying to figure out if there was anything I could have done differently in my life to make this world more kind.
Take care. As you can tell I haven’t gotten the hang of this yet/
Hi Curious, how is the isolation affecting you, are you ok ? I live in Shropshire, England. I am used to being isolated living in the country, in fact I prefer it. I too am curious about the world, especially nature.
Are you having fun on the site now?
I haven’t figured it out
well curious, keep on here you’ll get the hang of things, I have faith in you luv!
Stay safe and out of the way of things there.
