Hi All,
I have moved as some as you may know. It is so nice to be away from the crazy old neighbor of mine. I do miss my garden though. I like my new apartment except for some things that are broken. I have to go back to court with my ex next door neigbor in January and I'll need a lawyer.
I have a new love interest in my life. His name is Bobby. He is a REAL person which is so unlike what I've been use to. I've know him a little over a month and we are taking things very slowly. I met him at the restuarant I hang out in. People that know him say he's really a good guy. We have the same mutual friends at this hangout. He lives 3 hours away from me and comes to town for a few days a week. He's been in town for the past 10 days so it's been nice seeing him a lot of that time. He's a real sweetheart. _________________

Hi Barbara ~ It's nice to see you smiling again. Do you have room for a couple potted plants? They could take the place of your garden for now. Flowers always make me feel better, in fact, sometimes when I'm feeling down I buy one of those $3 or $4 bouquets at the grocery store, it really helps lift my spirits. And a love interest to boot! Wow YOU! Keep smiling! _________________

Thank you Essie,
I really don't have room for potted plants. It is so nice to be happy again. My new apartment needs a lot of getting things put away sort of thing. My landlord wants for me to sign a years lease but I'm not going to. I plan to move in another 6 months to a year if I can. _________________

Thank you all. I had fun with my new love interest yesterday in our hangout. He makes me feel so special and on top of the world. A friend of mine who use to work in the hangout/restuarant is after him though but I'm not worried because the way Bobby acts with me I know he won't stray.
Life is good once again. I have so many people in my life now compared to 3 years ago. People who are interested in what I say or interested if they see me. I have people who want to tell me about them. I can go into the restuarant where I met Bobby and him and I both know a lot of people and we have fun. I haven't been in the neighborhood bar in a long time cause I have more fun in the restuarant. I also have no interest in talking to any men in the bar. There are men in the restuarant also but that is different. I have my men friends in the restauarant and Bobby has his female friends in there. My male friends are Bobby's buddies and his female freinds are my close girlfriends. _________________
