Thanks for your reply and interest. I do have some friends with whom I meet weekly, and have some church-related activities which I do as a volunteer. Volunteering is frustrating, or maybe I am frustrating. I find that when one gives away one's time, the recipient is not especially appreciative...now a large check is a different story. I am an Elder in my church (much to their chagrin, I'm guessing), and attempt to do those things we have been tasked with in the care of others. I work with a homeless program, a food bank, and work in the administration of ministry in this Presbytery. I stay busy enough, for the most part. Just enjoying the prospect of the unknown...
