Basic lifestyle

On reading  the threads here it comes across very strongly that I have a very basic lifestyle compared to the rest of you. It mainly consists of internet,watch TV, eat and drink. It's a lifestyle aimed at reducing stress. I sometimes feel  set apart from the rest of you, not because of anything untoward said. My social communication skills are nowhere near as good as the rest of you. Social communication being separate from verbal ability. Having both ASD and schizoaffective/schizophrenia  doesn't help.

    I don't think that my life would be much different if I had lost my wife. She really pushes me which is both good and bad. We can't have kids so you are blessed with a daughter and granddaughter which is something I'll never have.

    I should put the record straight on that. We are not blood related, but mutually regard ourselves as father and daughter. I sometimes use the term 'chosen family' to describe our relationship. I have known her for over 40 years. Her birth father was a bad man who was out of her life before she was school age.
