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.

Welcome ShesPassionate and Birdy,
I know you will enjoy the time you spend here. I am fairly new too, and I enjoy it immensely. Everyone is so warm and friendly, and very supportive. Will look forward to seeing you around the forums.

Oh boy, do I feel silly!
Thanks, Dotsie for sending out the newsletter. I needed a nudge to come back and see that you all had responded, how sweet!
Hope I'm doing this correctly...
Well, I'm passionate about life!
I am the editor of the soon to be launched on-line magazine, Passionate for Life. We will be all about living life with passion. We Boomers want more and we hope to inspire others to live their most passionate life.
Thanks for asking!
I hope to hang out with you all more!

Welcome to both of you gals. So glad you have joined us and look forward to learning more about you.

Welcome Shespassionate and Birdy! Birdy, what kind of help do you need?

And yes, we want to know about both of you...inquiring minds and all!

Welcome ladies. You'll love it here. Let us know what kind of help you need and we will try to answer all of your questions.

Again---WELCOME!

Welcome shespassionate, from one passionate editor to another...

I hope to be able to hang out with you all.
I've just launched my E-Magazine, Passionate for Life.com.
Hi, Queen Jaw Jaw! and Dotsie! You know who...
Both ladies are featured on Passionate for Life.
Come on by and check us out as well.
Ok, now I need to figure out where to hang out here...
I LOVE it!!!!

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!
