Oh, Ok, so, looking out of the window I see the sky is still blue and nobody has stolen my drive.

Hi, I am 76, male, retired, single and now living in Italy. I would love to chat to anyone about anything as long as it is not some princess from probably Africa wanting to offload $25,000,000 with me getting 25%
Response from Mamite made 1 days ago
Hi Vizsla
My name is Kathy, I can assure you im no princess wanting money, and I love your sense of humour.
I am a young at heart 78 yr old widow, who is still very much in love with my husband, but would love to be able to chat to someone. If you’re interested send me a message, best wishes, Kathy

This all seems a bit slow. Guess I will have to wait and see how chats develop. Maybe I am just new and learning how to navigate the site. Say hello as you pass by.

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. 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.
Response from Drin made on 20th Jun 2025 21:05:38
Hi, I live in the US, 71 female and would love to chat with you or others who might be interested. We all need friends to laugh and share life with. Have a great day!

I'm looking at solo traveling. My husband has always been telling me that day would come when we would travel together. But, I'm tired of waiting and in my sixties. Any advice on the best first time solo trip as a woman would be greatly appreciated.

I know what you mean. We had local authority elections on Thursday and well, promises, promises if you get my drift. The trend seems to be throw enough money at it and all problems will miraculously go away. Not happening right? The screen reader I use is Australian as well. She’s called Matilda but I’ve never seen her waltzing. I’m in the UK btw.
