My life hasn’t changed much. I am a studio artist and spend most my time in my studio. I don’t care to socialize much anyway except on Facebook, because there I have control to turn on or off. I don’t like social obligations. I have a very difficult time attending parties, events and social commitments.

I cut my hair this week. My husband won’t let me touch his, and one look in the mirror tells me why. He spent 28 years in the Army, and I wonder how long he will hold out on me. Maybe a Flobee would be a worthy purchase right now? They cost 139.00 and are back-ordered.
