Linda you have the best ideas:beer:
OH is out to the local pub for local people so I will be at home feeling the need to drink cider.........
Party on?????But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.0 -
If I am honest, it was wonderful. I had beaches in the summer and a lake to swim in, beautiful Autumn colours and leaves and car-free roads to ride my bike on, VERY cold winters but was either skating on the harbour or cross country skiing and in Spring, well, trees to climb etc. I used to be a member of the 'Canoe Club' and we had regattas where we races inkayaks and war canoes (the huge canoes with about 20 people in them) and I knew everyone and always had friends to play with. It was a rather 'bohemian' place to grow up-loads of artists and hippies but truly, it was wonderful...Empty pockets never held anyone back, only empty heads and empty hearts can do that -Peale0

...Linda xxIt's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.0 -

I went to a tiny school-my grade had 4 graduates and we had amazing teachers-about 20 kids a class!
My cat (Leo) and dog (shanty) used to meet me off the schoolbus everyday.Empty pockets never held anyone back, only empty heads and empty hearts can do that -Peale0 -
I guess all my RL friends are busy with there lives, I dont see a soul when I am off work except the kids:o At work I am now a team of 1 so I feel a bit desolate working on my own.....
I guess I have just been thinking that I dont have many friends at all.
