Got a life, now what?

[97Hope]

Dilly,

Yes, and guess what? I went out for a pedi and started talking to a woman and told her I was looking for friends. lol She almost started tearing up! Her best friend of 30+ years passed away about 9 months ago and she's really missing her. I told her that I couldn't fill the void, but I could fill the chair next to her at dinner or a movie or painting. We exchanged phone numbers and I'm excited.

It felt good to take a leap. I've done it before with mixed results, but I won't give up. I also reached out to a neighbor I haven't spoken with in several months and we have agreed that it's dumb that we don't get together more.

Thanks for your encouragement. : )
