  • If you have friends and family that you don’t want to leave there are options. Everyone has a skill or can learn one. You might want to be a companion for an older person who needs assistance. Try to network with friends and family. Let people know you will help and want to work. Get rid of things that cost money but don’t save you money but keep a basic smart phone. Change your pastimes. Learn to forage, garden or build things. Many people look for helpers. Many people are eager to help and teach - find them. Meet strangers in friendly environments - you can network with those people. Go to free events. Volunteer - but be picky and don’t let anyone use you. If possible volunteer at a local garden - you can get food in return for helping. Co-ops pay people a modest amount and you can network there. Above all, keep busy to open doors and ward off the anxiety.

    Apple grafting is incredibly easy and cheap. All you need is a bit of knowledge, a utility knife, cheap flagging tape and ordinary waterproof wood glue. Planning to procure scions and watching for the bark slip is necessary - usually right around when buds start to break. My first graft was successful. Now I graft all the time. Peaches were a problem for me until I learned that they must be grafted after blossoms drop - usually later than ideal apple grafting time.
