These are a few of my online retirement groups for those born in a specific era or for retired folks in general! Click and send the email... and you'll be added to the group. These online retirement groups are Yahoo groups, all friendly, and you can easily leave if you decide it's just not for you -- but I bet you don't. They are simply a bunch of chatty seniors, mostly women, who email in a group on a daily basis. Email friendships are great!
Email groups are like the old-fashioned "party line" on a telephone.... only via email. There are lots of ladies (and sometimes a few men) in each group. Anyone can post to the group by sending an email to the group address. Everyone in the group receives the email. The emails are not personal, they are not addressed specifically to you, they are group emails.. so beware... everyone in the group is reading them. That's also the BEAUTY of Email Groups as an email sent to someone might just be what you are interested in! One person posted on potato sack dresses from years ago and everyone started sending their memories.
You can write general emails to the group, or ask questions. You can also specifically write to one person, knowing that everyone in the group is also reading the email.
You can read emails and never respond, but just enjoy the conversations from behind the scenes - or - you can jump right in and talk to lots of ladies all at once! Some might live in the same state as you, some far far away in a foreign land!
Bottom Line - FRIENDSHIP RULES! ENJOY SOME NEW FRIENDSHIPS!
Click on the link to subscribe to the group, you can easily get out if you decide later it's just not for you! After you click on the link, hit SEND and the email will get you subscribed to the group!
This first group is for those who are just transitioning from working life to retired. If you feel depressed or anxious, it's normal, but maybe we can all group together, via email, to work through this huge life change, and help each other find our new lifestyles.... Please post an intro to the group!
