Disabled and/or retired?



Recommended Posts

I'm looking to connect with others that are disabled and/or retired. I have many painful & progressive conditions which make me unable to work and require several custom braces in order for me to do certain things. I do help a friend in her deli about 10 hours a week, which is great!

I have VERY high energy, low metabolism, TONS of time on my hands (especially since I sleep very little, about 5-6 hours a night), limitation due to disability and living in a rural area and a desire to keep busy, on the move and burn calories. When I get bored I want to eat, which is another reason I want to stay busy and active.

I walk, use a treadmill, ride a recumbant, stationary bike and use dumbbells. I work out twice a day/7 days a week. But there are ALOT of hours in between. I know few people in my area, and even fewer that can keep up with me, lol!

I have gone on that site, and even tried starting my own group. Nothing in my area, as it's a rural, poor area. Really, the only social opportunities are bars, not my scene, lol
