Survive Loneliness - how does one do it.
How does one survive loneliness? I have never lived alone for that long. I think when I was single it was for 1 1/2 years. I usually lived at home with my mom and two brothers, lived with room mates, married, common-in-law with Smokey and now. Its hard. It sucks.
I guess the secret it to keep active or busy. When one is on an extreme budget, it gets challenging. The highlight of my week is babysitting my grandson for 3 days, my older brother comes over for a visit, get together with my girlfriend every other week or contact my friends via email. Not all my friends live in the Lower Mainland. I think even grocery shopping is a highlight for me.
The last two days I have been reorganizing my shelves and storage containers. I like it.
I am trying to recycle or dispose of my dresser hutch. I have a lot of no's from various organizations. Even UGM won't take it. I have tried Recycling Council of BC who recommended me to: Homestart Foundation, Eversafe Ranch, SPCA Thrift Store, Canadian Diabetes, and Salvation Army. I can pay by the Delta Landfill or pay thru 1-800-Got-Junk. these are my options. I am still waiting for 3 of the above recommendations. It sucks trying to get rid of furniture. Not every place accepts them. Some you have to take to and I have no means of transportation as I don't drive. Its an old fashioned hutch with mirror and shelves on the side for the dresser. I am trying to modernize my bedroom and remove the memory of Smokey. It was his furniture. I want the dresser and add an oval mirror to it or a picture.
Let me know what is new with you as I am really interested in it all from Diane
