When it's COLD I stay in and talk to friends by ☎. I read, watch TV, and study Spanish, work digital crosswords and tend my birds and cats.
When necessary or warm, I dress warmly and work out at the gym, volunteer at The Senior Center, grocery shop and lunch occasionally with friends, always near home.
I try to be positive, grateful and meditate. I'm open to new friends and ideas.
