Clarification (2nd post Tuesday, 5/10)
I don't believe I ever said I NEED a partner in order to go RVing, but I did say I was tired of doing it alone and I WANTED a partner if I continued. I also never said anything like I thought other women felt the same way as I do, and if I didn't make it clear, then I am truly sorry. Sometimes it isn't easy getting a point across that you want to make, but can't say clearly.
I am not a hothouse flower and never have been. I have been a strong and independent female from the time I was a child. For the last 15 or so years since I retired I have traveled in and out of the country alone, hiked about 900 miles of the Appalachian Trail alone, moved myself to Ireland where I lived for 3 years, alone, bought and sold several pieces of property on my own, and tried solo full time RVing.
Damn it all, at the age I find myself is it ok for me to wish I had a partner? I'm not asking that anyone live their lives or plan their futures as I do, so please give me a break.

Back To My Old Haunts
Yesterday evening was my first trip back to the gym, and it was like going the first time ever. I didn't realize I'd have to start all over from scratch, but I believe it shouldn't take me quite as long as it did the first time to get...

A Little Stir Crazy
I have been so good and quiet the past week I can't believe I'm still sane, but I'm pretty sure I am. I decided this morning to see if I could drive, so I went the approximate mile to Home Depot and bought a cheery plant for my kitchen window....

Blogging
I began writing a blog in 2008 when I decided to sell my house, buy an RV, and live the full-time RVing life. That lasted for about 2 years, and I had some good times as well as some traumatic times. In the long run I discovered it wasn't fun to do...
