new life, new home, what next?

Hi everyone, been a long time since I gave an update.. almost totally moved out of old molded place to an apartment,sadly my Uncle passed on before then though might have been God's plan that way now wondering what's next for me and my Aunt especially considering I am getting older want what's best all the way around

Hello Joseph So nice to see you again! Glad to hear your living
arrangements have improved, and sorry to hear about your uncle...


With Deepest Sympathy

Hey Joe good to see you again!So sorry for your loss 💛
i can only advise you to pray to God for guidance and direction in your life. I will pray for you too

Good to see you, sorry to hear about your uncle. I'll add you to my prayers. Direction is not always easy, I def get it.

Hi Magenta my friend glad to see you too😀🤗
and yes better arrangements good apartment with air and heat, but, my Uncle we will miss though considering all he went through in particular mentally I pray he is with the Lord I believe he knew Jesus though that's between him and the Lord🙏

thank you prayers and hope have certainly helped us through things are still rather tense but, still things are getting better

good to see you Mel, and thank you for the advise and prayer it has been a tough and worrisome road but, I do my best to stay positive and remember that the Lord knows what is best😀🙏

Hi Joe I dont know you but that never stops me from saying hello and welcome back again to CC, Im going to say a little prayer for you and your aunt and the blessings in your life. Take care

Hey Joe, glad to hear from you and just know God says ' For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon Me and come and pray to Me, and I will listen to you.… '. Now back to the Forums we go, God bless🙏

it's alright that we don't know each other, actually makes me feel at home me😀,,Magenta and some others use to welcome newcomers all the time and sometimes it's also easier to ask for help or prayer from people you actually don't know so well since there's less judging or pressure to worry about thank you for the greeting and prayers😀🙏

thank you yes God has the plan gotta keep moving forward

Welcome back! Lots of newness for you. I pray the Lord will direct you and give you peace in all this change. Keep seeking him and he will help you through times of wonder, feelings of being overwhelmed and all the unknowns. God bless!

well apartment living can be exciting you can get to know your neighbours and organise games evenings or whatever on your floor..I mean you dont have to go far for company.

In recall various things they had in retirment villages that always had social things going on stuff like

craft clubs -kniting crochet, art, drawing, painting, mosaic
gardening groups (if no space, could do it on the roof? or sunny balcony?)
mens shed
puzzles
snooker (pool)
zumba or dance class
piano or choir
outings/trips ...everyone organise a van/bus and go somewhere for the day
prayer and bible study groups
learn something new...a language perhaps.
swap recipes

oldies were a social bunch. Many had lost a spouse so they band together and support each other.

I mean you dont have to do all those things some oldies just preferred to keep to themselves and sulk but the majority came out their shells and start to enjoy life with the time they have got left.
