Just saying hello

Hi everyone, I've just joined and am from Ayrshire. I retired a long time ago but it seems like yesterday. I have lots of hobbies but they are mood inspired, I'm not dedicated to many of them. The more important ones, are Local History, Family History, Gardening and some craft work. I like to think my cup is half full and not half empty. I have one daughter living in Cheshire. I miss her a lot although I do see her fairly often, it's the wee things I miss most, the impromptu popping out for a coffee now and again. I don't get out nearly enough so I'm always willing to make new friends

Hello and welcome ! Although I have been a ' Silversurfer' for some time, this is the first time I have ventured to actually take part in ANY part of it----but I hope to do better in future !!! Like you I have been retired for a while but health issues plus a diagnoses of Alzheimers Disease has curtailed many of the things I used to do. One thing we have in common---only one daughter--( 2 sons as well--) but my daughter and her husband and 2 little boys decided to emigrate to Canada--- and absolutely broke my heart. Now I am letting all who read this know how foolish I am. Like you also I miss going out for coffee or lunch or shopping or ANYTHING with her. That's enough for now I think. I like poetry very much so I am going to put an end to this and go to the poetry page( s) and cheer myself up.
