Living alone can be very lonely, for
some people but not me~ I have so many people coming to pay
a visit that sometimes, I just need to get off into another
room to find a place to be by myself.
No, I haven't lost it altogether; just
making a statement of fact. You see, it is like this; you
may have entertained angels unaware but I know that I
entertain a lot through cyberspace.
I have this one darling niece whom I
rarely see that meets with me almost on a daily basis from
her perch in the state of Washington to my screen here in
Ohio. Then I have my friend, Dixie, who meets with me from
her armchair in Missouri to give me her plans for she and
her husband's day; the Hammonds..
Never could I tire of hearing from my
Injun friend, Harry, who is the reigning King of Komedy in
the Hammond household! Then we have my cousin, Fred, in
California who is handicapped with Parkinson's but keeps me
informed on our family's genealogy. From there we move
along his state to my friend who carries my name,
Norma, constantly sending me reassurances of our friendship
Moving on up the road a piece from her, we have my friend,
Melbah who keeps me on my toes with her daily inspirational
tracts.
From there, we may go along the
waterways to my friend, Bette, who is originally from my
home state of Ohio which lends interest and from there, we
travel to southern Calif to San Marcos where my friend, Barb
lives and keeps me informed of their travels and her
writings.
We travel over to Georgia where my
youngest daughter, Lori, lives; keeping me informed of my
grandson, Zack's latest ventures on the computer to the neat
things that her new baby girl, Katlyn, is learning. And then
we travel a little more south of Atlanta to chat with my
granddaughter, Melodi, who lives is Valdosta who checks to
see if G'ma has a minute or two to spare for her.
We aren't done yet as we find my
daughter, Cheryl, beeping her instant messenger; to see if
Mom is behaving; giving me the latest on what my son (her
husband ~ my son only through love ~ not biological) and so
you see, life for me is not lonely.
Life can be lonely if you wish it to be
but if you, my friend, are a victim of cyberspace, you can
only be lonely, if you wish to be!
Now, I have to squeeze in some time for
my writings? Never let it be said that I ignored my most
welcome newsletter from Starfish! Heaven forbid!
