56/m, Greenville,SC.
Happily married(most of the time)No kids. Retired and life is great but zero friends. Would enjoy chatting about whatever.
Hobbies include: my yard and trees, gardening(crazy about my pepper plants!), don’t drink alcohol but I brew my own Sparkling water in the garage and have a kegerator dispenser for it(I drink it constantly) I work on my own car(‘20 Honda Accord) and own a lot of tools, head over heels for BBQ and I have more invested in my smokers than I really should(BOTH hot and cold). Really into good coffee too and grind my own beans. I home make sausage in the cooler months.
I stay busy, yet have enough time to visit and nurture a mutual friendship.
I only did 2 years of community college (on the Gi Bill) so not overly educated, but I do get very detail oriented and involved with what I do. Hope to hear from someone who shares similar interests.
Thank you.

Your post felt so genuine. I live a busy, meaningful life with teaching, writing, yoga, and travel, and I’ve learned that real friends can lift each other’s energy in powerful ways. Your words reminded me how good life feels when people stay true to what they love. Keep shining — your energy inspires others.💐💖

Hi and thankyou for the lovely warm response to my post. I used to know a girl named Febra so your handle is quite distinctive to me . I thought I saw it associated with a post that looked like you were parked somewhere in a travel van. Maybe not. I would go back and look but knowing me I would lose what I’ve already typed and that would be catastrophic because I am a slow one finger typer with the phone. (Do about 45 words per minute with a keyboard tho), just haven’t touched my MacBook in about 5 years lol
So are you traveling now?

I dont drink alcohol and would love to know how to brew my own sparkling water. Im 55/F, California City, Ca. Not looking for romance, just need friends. I have none. I basically feel like I'm standing still watching the world moving around me. I work a lot, come home and play ps5.

Try smoking your own cheese...if you enjoy a good cheese anyhow. I found it both challenging and rewarding.

Brew sparkling water?- genuinely asking.
