> Do you have friends who are helping you?Hi! Yes, my T is forgetful. That is one thing I have not liked about her. She is very busy. She is married to a doctor who is not internationally "famous" in that respect or anything but is well known in his field and unlike me who doesn't do a whole heck of alot, she is very, very busy outside of her work.
I have not had any friends helping me because I am too afraid to ask for help for fear people won't like me. This has been a huge learning experience. I have taken upon myself to try to do everything without help and it has caused me so much stress I have had a mini nervous breakdown over it, I swear.
Glad you are going back to work. Do you feel like saying what kind of work? I have a graduate degree but right now would do anything. Including minimum wage jobs. I have no confidence to look for anything that I am qualified for. I used to be pretty but since hitting my 50's, even my 40's my appearance started to change alot. I put on a ton of weight, hair started to thin out. The menopause thing and pre-menopause. I just don't look or feel sexy anymore and I never felt that way prior to this weight gain and thinning of hair.
I wish I had a boyfriend, a relationship but haven't dated in years.
Be well,
