It would also be helpful if you found other groups you could join, cooking classes can be fun and some people join reading groups or do this thing called "meet up" where people get together and socialize.
My friend goes for a message once in a while too. She says it just feels wonderful.

This is also a really good idea Open Eyes.
I need to be social more. This is hard for me. But I have to. I'm not sure about dance classes. I'm shy and just not sure. But its something to think about.
I volunteer. But its completely not enough. Its once a week.
I am going to be taking some academic classes in January. So that's something.
I'm allergic to cats n dogs. But I do miss animals. Maybe I can volunteer at my local animal shelter.
Massages are a good idea too. They're expensive. But sometimes possible for me. Sometimes.
Edit: in terms of group and social things, I have a lot "in the works." There are 2 other volunteer gigs that don't start till January and April 2020. Same w school. Hey, its coming up, so that's good. December was sort of a dead social month. I remember looking for things to do in early December, and it didn't seem like a very fruitful month. Anyway I think there will be plenty to do in January.
