I've been absent from boomer women for so long ... at least two years. And I got an email about those who are members but haven't posted in a while.

I'm a freelance writer and photographer living in the high desert of Arizona. And, obviously, a baby boomer. I so enjoyed posting to the various forums here and will try my best to keep myself current.

I still have to re-learn my way around but I'm looking forward to chatting with all of you.

Blessings, Francine

Welcome back! You left right as I joined, because it's been about 2 years for me now. I saw your post about Ireland; thanks. We are really looking forward to our trip.

It would be lovely to hear how life is for all those women.

Hey Writegirl, I am right by your side. I received the email from Dottie, just as you did. Its been a while since I last posted. In that time, my job was overtaking my life, my daughter was married (that was most of my posting topic at the time) and I have had two total knee replacements.
AHHHHHHH sometimes life just gets in the way!! But it was good to be reminded of this website. Its so nice to hear other women's opinions and life changing moments. I am still in recovery mode for the second knee, so have a bit of time right now to correspond. Its wonderful to see some of the same names I saw back then. My daughter is married a year this month already...how time flies!! I believe I last posted before the wedding. Lots has happened since then. Its good to be back and I hope to keep in touch this time!

Hi again Craftyone, good to see you answer Dotsies email to stop by and say HEY!!! Glad to have you back and yes, life does at times take us over if we allow it to. But this is a place of relaxation and comraderie with many other women, something just for you alone, so stick around, we need you. I hope your daughter is doing well in her new life as a wife.

Edelweiss: My small publishing company is actually in its infancy stage, lol. It has been a dream of mine for a long time and now, with the purchase of an iMAC and resigning a part time position, I'm working on layout and design. Cover design is almost done with the exception of the actual photo that will be on the cover.

It's good to be back.

Thanks for all the welcomes and I look forward to getting to know all of you.

Blessings, Francine

craftyone, welcome back. So it sounds like you had your knee replacements doen at different times? I have a friend who had them two days apart. How are you getting along? Are you still in physical therapy?

Welcome back Writegirl and Craftyone. This is just the best place online ever. So glad you decided to come back. Life does somehow interfere with our wanting to just sit and be at this place. Sounds like both of you have been very busy.

Looking forward to reading more of how yo all are doing and what's happening in your lives.
