Hello from the glorious North. I'm struggling to figure out how the chat stuff works but saw your post and as a dedicated Northerner, had to respond! Best wishes from Lancashire.

I guess like most, I'm still trying to figure out how this thing works. I'm a guy that can be funny or serious and I love good conversation. I'm harmless but fun! Love meeting new people.

Dennis,
I’m sorry to hear about your wife passing. It can be a very difficult situation to navigate. I am 69 and have been divorced for 4 years after a marriage of 46 years.
I’m lucky my 2 daughters live in town. Six grandchildren keep me running, especially the 3 year old.
Knee surgery for me on September 19, my daughter is staying with me to help.
I try to stay busy, water aerobics and a little flower gardening, but sometimes it isn’t enough.
Life is too short to let yourself be unhappy.
I’m around most days, especially while convalescing. I’d be glad to chat with you.
Response from Dennis71 made on 14th Sep 2024 11:57:51
Hi Suzz1,

Thank you for writing. Good luck with your knee surgery. Are you getting a knee replacement? My brothers have both had knee replacement surgery, and two sisters in law as well. They recovered well, and are glad they did it. My hip replacement went well also. I had it done at the VA Hospital in Omaha (I’m a retired US Army soldier).

Getting old is not for the faint of heart. I spent yesterday cleaning out the she-shed. Painting the concrete floor of the she-shed was the last project Alisa planned. She bought the paint in summer 2022, but didn’t feel well enough to do it. This should have clued me in that something was wrong, but it didn’t. She never started a project without finishing it. On January 25, 2023 she was diagnosed with stage four pancreatic cancer. She died on March 4, 2023…five days before her 62nd birthday. We were married 25 years. I promised her I would care for our kitties Star and Luna, so my life these days revolves around them.

I hope your surgery goes well. The 19th—next Thursday— I’ll be thinking about you.

Dennis

Hi all I found out you have to comment on something twice before you are put in a chatroom!
Response from tc5706 made on 17th Feb 2025 06:31:11
Hi Catmomma12. I am assuming you are a cat lover. I too am a cat mom. At one time I had 12 cats. Sadly I am down to 5 now. Except for 1, the other 11 were a mother and here babies. It has been a wonderful experience with all those separate little purr-sonalities.
Response from Tree53 made on 16th Mar 2025 21:49:53 > @tc5706
I also love cats. I have 2 cats currently. They're my girls. Don't know what I'd do without them!

It's not the easiest I'll agree but with a little effort it's workable

Hi. I'm brand new to this site. I'm a 67 year old female and I live in the US. I'm looking for some new friends to chat with, have some laughs with and possibly be there for each other to talk to when we have a lonely moment.
Response from Sunshinealways made on 17th Feb 2025 22:31:10
That sounds great! I love to laugh too. Also living in the US right now.
