This is my last post – I left Facebook today and the blogs are going too. 

I loved being able to keep up with old friends and acquaintances while I was isolated here in Florida.  But now it doesn't feel like a good thing. Many of my “friends” are not really my friends anymore, which hurts me and keeps me tied to the past and reminds me of grade school.  There are a handful of people that I will remain friends with – you know who you are - but the whole idea of the social media seems to be holding me back and so I am going to let it go…….my first step in disengaging from a world that is not me, a culture that is not me and a past that is no longer me.  

I am going to put my writing energy into something else.  You never know friends – one day you might recognize yourself in one of my stories…. 

 thanks for reading 

and especially thanks to the 2 friends

who kept me going with their comments and support all these blogging years
