Hello to all! I am excited about this forum, there is sure a lot of good topics to explore. I am an artist, writer, poet. I am led toward spiritual topics in all these areas. I love to paint or visually express myself by experimenting with all media.
I am a single mom with a 13 year old who is energetic, creative, and smart. I got pregnant with him at 45. I already had a generation raised! It was a surprise. I thought it was menopause when I missed a period. He is a treasure and exhausting. I am always struggling, it seems, to get time for myself. His father lives close by but is unavailable most of the time.
I have a lot to share and learn and I'm looking forward to meeting you all!
Oh, the renegade artist thing, I formed an art group to promote contemporary and abstract art in my area. It is a fun project and is good for me as well as others in many ways.
thanks!

Welcome, Renegade! I'm glad you joined us. I see your creativity flows in many directions. What a blessing!

Wow! I can imagine what you're going through with your teenager. My cousin got pragnant in her late thirties and had a hard time keeping up with her daughter. 45 is even a greater challenge!

Hope you enjoy this great forum!

Renegade,

Welcome! What part of the Rockies do you call home?

I am a mountain girl myself - reduced to city living for the time being!

Welcome Renegade from another poet-writer-artist! You sound like you're having a great life.

Welcome from me too Renegade. You are in for a pleasant journey with us. Do you have a website. I'd like to read/see some of your work. Does your son follow you in creativity?

I'm with Chick - would love to see some of your work...do you have a website??

Have fun traveling around the forum....and again WELCOME.

I'm adding my welcome too. You sound so interesting. I hope you come back often to share.

Welcome renegade. Yes ladies, she does have a website. Just click on the little house icon above her post. I'd love to see some close ups of your work. Any way you can do that?

I have 2 teens and a 20 year old so maybe we can swap stories about kids too.

Make yourself at home. Please join in the other forums.

Hello Renegade. Welcome to BWS. There are a lot of women here that share the same interests as you.

Thank you for all your encouragement! I will try to answer some of the questions.
Danita, I am on the east side of the mountains about two hours from Denver. Up north. I like to come to Denver and play. After a while I get stressed from so much input. Spoiled to the quiet life.
Meredith, your jewelry is awesome! Good stuff there, so delicate.
Chickadee-yes my son is very creative. Drama, writing and sculpting.
Dotsie- My web site is not set up for detail, yet!
Nice to know so many creative types are around.
Thanks again
