News Year - New Experiences

In January I decided it was time to "stop eating my feelings" (I borrowed that saying from a friend) and get out and live life, again.  I was married for 35years; separated for four years and divorced for one. 

So, I got off the couch, stopped eating ice cream every night, put some Joe Cocker in the cd player and started dancing around the house - at least one hr every day - down 13 pounds and counting!

I'm no spring chicken - I didn't have a clue about meeting people.  Do I just walk into a bar, order a drink and hope for the best?  Not my style; not to mention one drink and I probably couldn't walk out of the place let alone make a wise decision.  Friends setting me up -S-C-A-R-Y!!!

So, I sent a message to several of my girl friends on facebook.  Most ignored me - they are married and perhaps the thought of suggesting ideas was a jinx?  One suggested I go on-line (I'm still deciding if I should thank her)!  I swore I would never do that - well, guess what...yep, I did.
Let me tell you,  this has been something else - quite the experince.  I will take this opportunity to share what goes on in the online dating world-from my prespective.  Sometimes funny, sometimes scary, sometimes just down right -What Were You Thinking?

Did you like the web address?  One of the guys I went out with actually made that the subject of an e-mail he sent to me. - more to come.
