Subject: RE: BS: Being alone, how?
Okay Gals, I'll take the back bedroom-I'll cook tonight. This Mudcat Haven was a great idea.

My husband died 10 yrs. ago, (no kids) I have no one except a few cousins. But I have great neighbors (friends) who have seen me thru his sudden death, cancer & a heart scare. I had friends of friends (strangers) bringing me meals. But in the quiet hours of aloness I wonder what happens when I can't drive or because of a drought in the area -I may have to move. Moving scares the hell out of me-all the friends scattered. Nursing homes scare the hell out of me. I'd rather get a rope & find a tree, then end up there.

Jeri's last paragraph sums it up.You take care of today and have faith & just persevere. Keep puttin' one foot in front of the other with some great music to help you keep step. Try not to worry - Be Happy!!
