Greetings, looking for a PenPal...
Watch this postI have a good brain but a bad body due to medical issues so trying to widen my world with some friends online. Anyone willing to give me a try? Best wishes and good luck, JMC

If you are still looking for a pen pal let me know. Looking forward to hear from you!
But, but....but as your post is such a long time in the past I doubt you'll be still be wanting more pen pals?
If so please respond and I'll open up about myself.
Hopefully you received lots of would-be correspondents prepared to give you a try and have enjoyed the months in between.
Just as I went to sign off I saw some other recent comments and realise being 70ish and arthritic with active imaginations and brains is pretty rife.
I find this SS forum hard to work out, so frustrating so perhaps the old grey matter not as strong as I hoped.
Good luck to you and other fellow sufferers, magic dragon.

Hope you see this and hope it makes you want to reply!
Either way, I wish you all the best

I have just read your profile and comments, and I also love dark chocolate ginger chocolates! I am another lady who loves to write, but not as prolifically as you.
I was thinking maybe you would care to go on Chat, so that we can have a private correspondence. Anyway, let me know if you would like that. Of course, you may be doing that with loads of other people. I have one person with whom I chat, and I find that very rewarding, although we mostly talk about everyday things.
Look forward to hearing from you.
Best wishes,
Val
Always happy to correspond! I'm not quite sure how to do the 'chat' thing online though, so perhaps if you could explain how I do that? I'm comfortable with techology (don't like it but know how to use it lol). Worked with some complex software in my job for many years. In fact, I've been connected to the internet since 1997! It's just that every application has it's own way of setting things up, as does this site. Have to be honest and say that the 'every day stuff' isn't of much interest to me, I can indulge in it for a few minutes than my mind starts wandering because I'm thinking, 'Okay, so it's sunny today, what now?' sort of thing. I'm not knocking it, the main thing is communication and we all need some of that!
Thank you for replying!
