Wednesday, April 16, 2008 | A General Update story

Ok so now I'm in my own apartment, my girls are grown with lives of their own, my ex is well my ex, so I'm feeling lost. I went from my parents home to making a home with my own family and now I'm out in the big world all by myself. I like my apartment and after living with my oldest daughter and her family for almost 2 years it really is nice to have my own place, I'm just not sure what to do now.

 

I started physical therapy last week for the first time in nearly 10 years. Now that I'm on disability and medicare I can actually go to the Dr. and PT again, not to mention no longer worrying about how I'm going to pay for my meds.

 

I can't imagine dating again, for one thing I don't go out much so I never meet anyone. I know I miss the physical contact and can't bear the thought of never being held by a man again, but on the flip side it scares the crap out of me!

 

I'm feeling pretty lost and lonely right now. I need to work out a plan, otherwise the days will continue to run one into the next and I'll still be sitting here with my dog wondering why I'm all by myself. I feel like Bridget Jones!

    Ph my goodness, I feel the exact same way!! I'm here to go through this with you. My kids are still "living" under my roof, but the loneliness and sadness is consuming me. Try to focus on the opportunities you now have and try not to look back. I know.... easier said than done. If were so smart, I'd follow my own advice! Lol. HUGS
