We post, but it is not like a chatroom where you can talk immediately to one another. You post and others reply. Hope this helps.

Welcome Birdy. Why don't you post some information about yourself in a new welcome thread. Tell us about your life, your work, etc. Then, just peruse around the different threads, read and post your own thoughts and sit back and enjoy. Everyone is a bit lost at first, but you will catch on to all the nuances.

Watch out hun, you'll become addicted like the rest of us and not a day will go by that you'll need to come in and get a "boomer" fix. These gals are the best in the world. And..............they let me be Queen. How cool is that?

Course, they also know I have a moat with alligators, but I'd neverrrrrrr use something like that as a threat...nu uh. Not me. Honest injun.

I'm addicted already! Such a nice community!

Ok, so I'm a 46 yr. old wife and mom of two. I was an insurance underwriter (UGH!) in another life before kids. I chose to re-invent myself after a mid-life crisis... Life hit and hit hard on several fronts, I ended up in counseling. The counselor asked "What are Your Hopes and Dreams?"
First time in my life (honestly, my friends would vouch for this), I was speechless! I had NO CLUE!
So, I took a journey of self-discovery, read self-help books, prayed for guidance, watched Oprah!, talked with anyone and everyone. I determined life was meant to be lived, passionately. I set out to create a platform to inspire others. Took a couple of long routes to my eventual destination, and ended up here, having just launched the e-mag. Whew! I feel better! LOL!
