I would like to make new friends for general conversation onlyHI, I am facing retiring after a very consuming job of teaching Orchestra in the Public Schools for 30 years. I started teaching late, so that brings me to a healthy, active, mind and body young-at-heart 77. I say, facing retiring, because I haven't wanted to let go of my job which I love. However, Corona has brought me to my knees and I'm saying "Uncle". I'm done, and am using the Corona shut-down to start my new life with online violin teaching, online languages, this chat-room, reading, writing my life-story, etc. When we're back to normal, I will visit our Senior Community Centers, and back to church, and choir, etc. My daughter and son-in-law, also musicians, are presently living with me, luckily., and their dog. So, I'm a pretty happy camper with the shelter-in-place of California. In spite of my ability to keep myself connected and active, I find living alone really hard, especially at this age, when, our options seem limited. Not for activity, but for relationship. I miss conversation, hugs, family around me in my home. I can only get a small pet in my present home, and I like big dogs, so, I don't know... Would love to chat with similar aged people, any State, California would be nice, and the Bay Area really nice! And very interested in Scotland, as I am half-Scottish. My grandparents were born about 15 miles south of Glascow. I have never been, but, on my Bucket list. Here's to chatting! Shelley -
