Happy Thursday JEG... Keeping busy with Chicago's weather.

Chipping ice, salting sidewalks, shoveling snow....

Florida is starting to look pretty good right now :)

Make it a great day

Hi. Today has been ok. Worked at my PT job so at least I got out. Now have 3 days off. By Sunday I am usually down and have run out of things to do

I hear you Senior70...those weekends can seem long if we don't have something

to look forward to, no matter how small. I'm glad you have a PT job just to get out

and be with people can help. I use Saturdays to run errands, bank, post office and

fill the car with gas. I've made Sunday my grocery shopping day which takes care

of the afternoon. I have a house so there are always a million and one things to do.

(That came from my father who when growing up always told my sister and I that he

didn't want to hear we were ever bored during summer break. :)

The list was longer than the hours in a day.

Do you have hobbies or projects you enjoy doing? I also use to do a lot of volunteering. You'd be surprised how many people at any age are lonely.

The smile you can bring to someone and feel the gratification back to

you a hundred times over.

Of course, I spend a lot of time on the forum 7 days a week from morning thru evening in between appointments and calls I may get.

I'm looking forward to hearing more about your life, what your part time job is, do you

have family and friends around you.

I was agoraphobic for 5 years Senior70, so I lost a lot of time from my life. I am so grateful that I'm no longer afraid to leave my home and so I keep myself busy. It's never too late to start doing something you always wanted to but didn't have the time.

You're young my man. Reach for the stars. Life is Good :) x
