I've made friendships even if they are mostly on screen. I've been challenged to think through my positions on several subjects. I've seen the solidarity of other women and men.

I was parked on a slope, driver's side was downhill. As I opened my door I bumped the car next to me. Oh, it had a passenger. Passenger opens the door and said something to the effect that he did not appreciate me dinging his car and I should be more careful. Then he told me that however, forgave me. At that I just laughed! And he sat back down and closed his door. I don't usually return rudeness for rudeness, but I thought that was about the best answer to his pomposity. Oh vey!

Anybody else planning slide gradually into retirement?

HippieChick58 comments on Oct 3, 2018:

My last job was very stressful, and I was not keeping up with the case load. Essentially they offered me micromanagement that would likely end in firing for cause or I could resign. I chose to resign. I have some retirement income from my ex, and an additional amount will begin as of 11/01. One of my kids has a small baby and she required surgery on her foot and would be NWB (non weight bearing) for some time (think holding baby and being on crutches). This was an opportunity for me to be available to help out and do my favorite job - Grammy. So, in a few months if I decide I need to I will look for a job that is low stress. All I am really looking for is health insurance to be covered. COBRA is almost $600 per month. However, I needed new glasses and the insurance paid almost $600, so I got a good value for this month. Also while I am off I am catching up on my projects and improving my health. I'm getting into better shape and losing weight. I'm liking retirement, but will play it by ear.

Do you think you need romance to have love, or can you have love without romance?

HippieChick58 comments on Oct 2, 2018:

Word nerd that I am I had to get the definitions. Love is characterized as a powerful attraction and personal commitment and sacrifice. Attachment or affection in love are not limited to human beings and extend to other entities like animals, things, and ideas. Attachment results in a very powerful connection and bond between two entities. Love can exist in many forms and be manifested in many ways. Forms of love include: non-romantic, unconditional, and romantic love. Manifestations of love can vary from simple to grand gestures. In contrast, romance is referred to as the actions or gestures in the context of a relationship. These gestures are done and seen as an outward expression of the feelings of a person towards another. It is also seen as a tool to prolong and reinforce both the relationship and the bond between two individuals. Romance also develops the romantic love in a potential couple and reinforces the connection. In this situation, romance improves the potential for a couple to be in love. So to play with that, love is the powerful attraction and personal committment, romance is the actions or gestures. Therefore, you can have love without romance. Romance makes it more fun, deeper, a more outward expression of the love.
