I had a good Sunday - woke up now in the middle of the night with insomnia. I did go out on Sunday, got out of my apartment and went to church. I don't feel comfortable there as a former friend who I don't talk to much (actually a former neighbor) - her father attends and is not a friendly person and it sort of makes me not want to be there. The idea next time will be to sit in the back and get there early and go to the opposite side where he is sitting. I am doing well otherwise, just more aware of how little I have materially in this messed up world where possessions and traveling etc. are more to people than friendship. My three closest friends are all like California people, meaning "What have you done for me lately?" I can't get a ride from any of them without forking over a lot of dough, so maybe it's time to not go anywhere with them anymore. I get a check Tuesday so I think I will just go and take the bus to the place I want to get the printer instead of waiting for one of my so-called friends to take me/not take me, and that way I won't have to worry. Family is people I see once a year maybe who I have no connection with, and will leave nothing to as they don't care really about me at all. Moving away will be a good idea if I get published as I am not going to let phony friends I have now and phony relatives suddenly be nice if I do get published. Thanks for letting me vent... Off to some writing, my food intake is much less than it was a week ago so I am on the right track!

Thanks Lisa for being understanding. I need to get out and meet new people as my few friends never are around anyway and are completely broke all the time too. When I lived in CA I had a good job, most of my friends did not and were basically all broke so I always payed for meals, etc. It's the same now, except I don't have the money right now to take other people out just to have things to do so the best thing to do is just go out by myself. Tonight there's a poetry group - too many people are likely to be at the movies for the holiday so I will go tomorrow probably. I am just glad I don't live in California any longer...

yes abba - Just noticed your comment, it is quite warm out - low 50s here so that is a big relief after a month plus of cold weather. Those big snow piles are melting fast! :)

Went to the poetry group, not too many there since it was Valentine's Day, but it was a lot of fun and free. Next week the library is closed for the holiday. Next month there will be a reading one night that the group will be off, so I will go to that and it should be fun. The group meets at the Calvin Coolidge room of the library, his presidential room is there with memorabilia and even his law desk from here in Northampton is in the room. Not much really, most prominent are a picture each of he and his wife. Inevitably if I go out and socialize more I will have more friends. This spring I hope to get going to another gym with a pool to swim in too. There is a mystery book club, but I don't read those very often, except maybe Agatha Christie or Mary Higgins Clark and I know there are dozens of them who are very successful and I don't read their books. I'm glad I went out this evening. Hopefully some time this week I will get that printer! Anyway, book 2 is coming along well - about half done with the edit and the book is an enjoyable read, somewhat easier than book 1 as there aren't multiple characters in different locations, everyone is on a journey together. Have a great week ahead everyone. Busy day tomorrow most likely...

Glenn, I'm so sorry that this person in church is so rude to you. And also that your so called friends are not there for you as they should be. I read a quote this week about friendship and families. "God gave us friends when he wanted to apologize for our families". We are your friends and family and love you very much. Have a good day my friend.

It's OK - this person is not rude to me, just in the past made it clear he didn't want to talk to me when I was friends with his daughter, I feel uncomfortable around him though he has never been rude. He is a school teacher and I certainly wouldn't want to be one of his students, I had many rude teachers and good ones too! Anyway, back to your daughter - is she nagging him out of the house? You aren't there 24/7. This morning I saw a woman give the 3rd degree to her boyfriend at a restaurant because he didn't call. He was all lovey/dovey, honey, baby, blah blah blah and she wouldn't stop. Some MEN will put up with so much for one reason - a steady supply of loving, if you know what I mean. I am one person who will not put up with that kind of stuff and perhaps that is why I'm alone. Thank you for saying you're family, I come on here as I realize I have no way to get around and stuff since my friends Ted and Marge moved. I need to get back to bed as I am very cranky and tired so I will take a nap. It is very cold out here today, thanks again for your kind words...

Hi Glenn hope your day is going well. I finally got to walk a mile on my
driveway this morning. It was a little nippy at 38 degrees but it felt so
good to get out of the house and get some fresh air...Bren

Hi Bren it's Monday afternoon, I probably am staying in unless I walk the dog, I really needed sleep to feel better. It is supposed to warm up here soon enough at least for a few days, anyway. I definitely feel better after sleeping and have to realize not to sweat the small stuff in life, and it's all small stuff...
