women at 55 and their network

When you reach the age of 55, your network has got to be for real! What do you say? I was married for 26 years and have 2 grown-up sons. Here I am planning for my own new life! What an exciting privilege to do. Let's see network? Well? I have some few friends, I moved from one country to another country. Met new friends, language, food & culture, etc. Then had a summer house in another country, met new friends, language, food & culture, etc. But of course I retained my good old friends from my homeland, language, food and culture, etc. This must be networking too? But what is this networking? My friend is talking about? Just have to look it up then..... Network [n] an interconnected system of things or people; "he owned a network of shops"; "retirement meant dropping out out of a whole network of people who had been part of my life"; "tangled in a web of cloth". This does'nt sound that bad, does it? How is your networking doing?

i think at 66 my network is doing o.k. it is a pretty quiet network but that's o.k. i enjoy it & that's the main thing. it could be better i'm sure but i know for sure it could be alot worse. i'm proud it's as good as it is.

I never form my own network group too aside from joining social networking sites in the internet. But of course I recognized the importance of friends in our lives and I do maintain couple of trusted friends to be relied on when troubles come in.
