Honestly it I was still living with my H I probably would have killed myself by now (left to live alone 9 years ago).

I moved 2100 miles away to where I didn't know anyone but I'm so active now & involved with the church community & the horse community, volunteering all over the place, also involved with the wonderful small town community I live in & ballroom dancing classes. It's like I have a whole new & wonderful life while living alone on my little 10 acre farm is my quiet retreat. I need that alone time with all I'm involved in & all the things that just come up in my life out of the blue.

There are many other single women in my community who are also as involved (or even more). We all love our alone time but also enjoy our connecting & together time....not at all hermits.
