Hello everyone, I've been milling about the boomer site, thanks to Dotsie's invitation. I've been spending some time getting used to the site and the various icons. Now it's time to reach out and shake hands with all of you. You can see from my profile that I am an artist, author, and also educated as a social worker. I am so pleased to see a site dedicated to baby boomers. I read here that some of you have Westhighland White Terriers. I have one named Gracie and one named Annie. Is it possible to love pets too much? I also ride a horse named Shadow on the weekends. I am currently working on a book about my breast cancer experience. My book about surviving an abusive childhood was published via print-on-demand. Other than animals, my favorite activities are reading and writing, as well as watercolors. I also love to bake! I look forward to getting to know everyone here. Love and Light, Lynn
