THINGS HAVE REALLY CHANGED FOR ME OVER THIS LAST YEAR. I'VE BEEN GONE FOR A WHILE DUE TO DEPRESSION I SUPPOSE. LAST YEAR ON jULY 5TH ILOST MY HUSBAND OF 22 YEARS TO CANCER. THAT HAS REALLY CHANGED MY LIFE. I NOW LIVE ALONE IN AN APARTMENT. I AM A LOT STRONGER THAN I THOUGHT. I GO BY MYSELF WHEREEVER I WANT WHEN I WANT. I AM ABLE TO TAKE CARE OF MYSELF. THAT SOUNDS LIKE A NIRMAL THING BUT MY HUSBAND ALWAYS DID THINGS FOR ME. I DID RETIRE FROM MY JOB AS A SOCIAL WORKER AT OUR LOCAL HOSPICE. I NOW VOLUNTEER THERE. I SIT WITH PATIENTS WHO HAVE NO ONE WHEN THEIR TIME COMES. SOUNDS DOERESSING? NOT FOR ME. I AM LEARNING SO MUCH DOING THIS. I REALIZE HOW BLESSED I AM. I HAVE MADE NEW FRIENDS IN THE APARTMENT BUILDING AND AM CONSTANTLY BUSY WITH LEARNING NEW THINGS. I AM LEARNING HOW TO FISH RIGHT NOW. WORMS ARE ICKY BUT I HAVE TO DEAL WITH THEM. IN FACT I FEEL SORRY FOR THEM. OK ENOUGH FOR NOW. i REALLY AM GLAD TO BE BACK. I HAVE MISSED MY FRIENDS HERE.
