Hello to all the Members

I thought I would join this forum as I sometimes get fed up with just talking to my dog Rosie and myself. Or just watching TV. So if anyone wants to chat and tell me about themselves I would love to hear from you.

Hi DeDi warm welcome to the forum new blood always very welcome. I am pretty much like you I lost my wife one year ago and have a little dog Roxy to keep me company. For human company I play golf 2 or 3 times a week weather permitting. Love to hear more about your interests.

Everything will be alright in the end, and if it’s not alright, its not the end.

Hi Dedi
Welcome aboard. You don't have to be mad to fit in here, but I have a sneaky suspicion that it may help!  ;D ;D
I'm another one on my own - lost my wife 2 years ago and our little dog 1 year ago, so I find this place a great comfort

Thank you for the days, the days you gave me.
The older I get, the better I was!

Dedi, welcome. I am alone and this Forum is the best ! When I feel terribly lonely, I enter here my misery and the members are so truly kind and help me. I am a bit of a nuisance at times, but in general , members seem to put up with me and they are generous in caring how one feels. It is a good place to be. Join and enjoy....gmx

Very curious why you picked the user name DeDi so I google the name to see what popped up. Djedi came up first followed by Israel music.com. I expect they are both wrong but this give you a chance to post some thing of interest

Hi. I have just logged in and was very nicely surprised at all your lovely replies. About me! Here goes. I live in Warwickshire. I live alone except for my Shih Tzu Rosie. I'm 66 and still work 1 day a week but unfortunately my job is coming to an end on 30th March. I was really gutted as I have been there for 22 years. I was Housekeeper for 20 years and Retired from Housekeeping but stayed on for Administration work. I have been with my boyfriend for nearly 33 years. (Stop laughing)I know what you are thinking lol. Its a long story. I have a Son and Daughter and 5 Grandchildren. All girls. My boyfriend is my Sons dad. I have suffered from Asthma since I was a baby but I manage it quite well. Of course as you get older you start suffering from aches and pains usually due to Arthritis. Got that in a few places! I do not go out very often which I know is my own doing and I really should. Money is a bit tight. Weather is not great at moment either with the wind and rain. My dog managed to trip me up just over a week ago which sent me slamming down on both knees. Ouch. It could of been a lot worse. Very grazed and bruised but luckily no broken bones. DeDi comes from the Ice cream van from years ago. It was my nickname as a child. I go a little stir crazy sometimes being on my own.
