When I retired, I decided to reach out. I invited 10 (my house is small) neighborhood ladies over for a Saturday 8:00 breakfast. I made 2 different egg casseroles and coffee. Some filled in the rest with juice, fruit, pastries. They stayed until 11 and loved it. I do it once or twice a year, spring or fall before everyone gets busy. We’re all the same age and appreciate the connections since we’re no longer working. Another friend liked the idea and now hosts one in her neighborhood. It’s nice to know and be known and lends itself to a sense of small town Mayberry in a big world.

The women on my street used to get together every December for a dinner and ornament exchange. It was always fun, so in order for use to see each other on a more regular basis, I started a neighborhood book club. We meet every 6-8 weeks. Each meetinig is very casual and hosted by a different neighbor. It’s been a fun way to get to know my neighbors better!

Kay…. I often think this same thing. We just don’t put enough effort into our neighbors. We live on a dead end road with only our house and 4 down the road from us. We visit outside with the ones next to us but don’t see the others except for when we meet on the road. Every house is a different age group. Everyone seems to stick to themselves. However up the hill from us is where I use to live and I know more of them but even that neighborhood is changing. I think people got in a bad habit during Covid and just aren’t as social with neighbors. I too could do better and would like to read comments. Blessing to you for your talk and great post with ideas.

Hi Kay I love the dresses you have shown, some really nice and smart. A word of advice, take the dresses & those navy shorts to the UK with cardigans or jacket. We can, and often do, experience spring, summer and autumn all in one day. I type this sitting outside in 70F in a sheltered spot in the east of the England. Keep up the good work.
