I find with my hubby he just just to me been involed with the grandkids for years .so not much chat going on with him. .. we always say that just how he is ..But now that the grandchildren are growing up , and most times just doing their own thing 7 of them 12 to 26. And one great grand child 2 months old ....I am so lucky really all live In same town ..But see them on and off for their Hugs which is a must every time we see each other 4 boys 12 15 19 19 But never too big to give Nanny a Hug and they do .where ever we are . Same as the 3 girls. 16. 22 ( 26 a mummy now bless her ). But now days u call them my IT I pad or Tablet grand children .. So I see them every day and chat to them on Face book Instagram Twitter Skype . I am glad I have learnt to do this As a few years ago I thought to my self it the only way to go to keep up with them . So my local library helped me so much to get this far ..also helped me keeping in contact with friends .AS NOW DAYS Thst all people do , nit many phone calls just chatting on here ,But where would be without it I think now ., As learning to chat to my husband and relising how much he has took a back seat I am sorry now of course because time has come to try and do something for us .And Believe me it not easy .. In fact it hard work . But we getting their slowley .. He also Into his Tablet and I pad . Reads every news paper and cards playing . So now if I am not careful it be me taking back seat because I just love to chat and more chat .., I love going meeting up with people friends or strangers shopping buses my mobility scottor and just chatting . And now also on here . Just got to take life as it is now days .. And reach out learn new things , join places where you know people are .. Your local library would always have little meetings going on. . Quiz days , book clubs or just topics chats . I go sometimes to these . And Joined swimming club for Health reasons and love it .. Now a few of us have coffee afterwards 2 Days a week. .. But got to say I do support my local library by donations for coffees etc. But I love me fire kindle , So love reading as you can. Tell Also I joined a creative writing class Amanzing .. But never been good at Grammer or spelling , but told to just carry on and I did ..

Tears in deeed and you Hubby and family were all so Proud for giveing it a go and for also for trying to move on , and takening my retirement in a better way .. I did not enjoy giveing up work , hated it in fact ,,Worked on a Milatery base for 32 years. With my hubby with our catering Trayler which was our life ...Metting so many young trainees Growing up through the years . Basics to start with than following their careers to be what ever they wanted in the RAF.
So the chats were with so many people over the years , I think hubby and myself just stop talking for a year or more because we missed it so much we were the young Basic mentors .,As soom were first time away from home and over the years we found that home sickness was def their and affecting their traning . So the C Officers over the years asked us to just simply be there for them that needed a little chat .And I think that was so many . So we become Mum Dad , Aunt Uncle , Friends to the older ones , as years went on we now become Gran and Granddas ... Than worked stop did not mind that really ,But I So so missed the Young and a# they got older years went by for them and they came back for courses . We heard so many story’s of their life’s and Become Mums dads children. Post abroad fighting somenot coming back .It was our life and boy did I miss it more then my husband .. So you got to get out their and still
Live fins things to do because you can . Don’t be lonely or sad . Please try it can work. God bless all x
