I am finding it challenging to be a 45 year old, single, childless women and trying to figure out where I fit in. Even though I love living in the country, it doesn't give me many opportunites to meet people. All of my neighbors have young kids and just seem to keep to themselves. I am looking for ways to fit in more. Any ideas?

You could try the bar?
Kidding.
I don't know you very well, but are you active in any groups at church?
I'm sorry you feel like you don't fit in. I'll bet you do, better than you think.
What have you always wanted to learn to do? Write a book, square dance, raise chicks? I think joining others with common interests is a fun way to meet people.
I have been praying for you. You may not think you fit in, but you do.
God will use the pain of losing your husband to minister to other women who have lost their spouses as well.
Thanks for notes. Maybe fitting in was the wrong phrase to use. What I am really missing is having girl friends to do things with. Outside of my work friends, I don't really have many. Gerrell and I had a few "couple" friends but some of those friendships feel different without Gerrell. I tend to be kind of shy until I get to know people (big time introvert!!) which gets in the way of me being able to meet people too.
Erin--I have been going to Latte but other than that, haven't found other church groups.
