I think that I am probably too much alone, for example I have not gone to any bars or restaurants or elsewhere to socialize with other people, in many ways I like my routine, almost as ‘Mr. Bean’, but in many ways I also miss some human contact. Well, it has been in this way for many many years and so somehow I feel nothing. What do you miss in your life?

and comes home and has an event every evening

He also does a camp weekend every other month
or about 5 times a year
it’s respite, and it’s covered for parents of dependent adults or kids
I do take advantage of it usually
a motivator for me to get out of the house

Hard not to notice how the older you get, the more things hurt. Argh. Never been that worried over my looks, but I could do without all of the aches and pains.

I used to do stretches every day when I was younger
now it’s too painful to even do that!

I ache in solidarity with you, my sister.
do you get restless leg syndrome, @shutterbug?
I used to get it bad
but it went away on its own
maybe getting on propranolol?
Both Clozaril and Olanzapine made me pace horribly. I couldn’t stop. I was scraping HUGE callouses off my feet every week. That did help with weight. I remember always having the police in my small town I lived in at the time questioning me as to why I was out walking at 3 am. I just couldn’t NOT walk. They eventually wrote me off as weird, but harmless.
Don’t remember restless leg other than compulsive pacing. Does that count?
wow, weren’t you scared being out at the dark time of the day?
I pace a lot now
what about shin splints?
I get that on my treadmill
real bummer
