dear beliefnet, I've been very impressed with norris chumley's weight loss site. I'm divorced, practicing roman catholic for many years. looking for christian friends/companionship. I like God's world and enjoy being out in it. bible study, worship services, I'm retired, volunteer, exercise, I have a dog and a cat,but they are no substitute for human companionship.
