Lony Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 Hi everyone, Old newbie coming back to the forum with my tail between my legs so to speak. I made an Annabelle about 6 years ago and had great intentions of doing many more. Well, life seemed to have other plans for me. In the eon between then and now I have had cervical cancer, moved twice, become a grandma (second one is on the way) and lost 150 lbs. (LOL that information is for those of you who knew me when) I now find myself in Wyoming with a husband who works in the oil industry. Great pay and benefits but he is gone for two weeks and home for one. I guess you could say I am retired at 41 and I now have lots of time on my hands. You don't have to guess what I am going to start working on. hehehehe Anyway, long story short, I am a stay at home dog mom with way too many interests and ADD. Never a good combination. I am going to try to get some of the kits out of storage in the next few days and let the games begin. If you have any questions about me or simply want to be nosy just ask. I am pretty much an open book. Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lony Posted September 15, 2012 Author Share Posted September 15, 2012 Well thanks. I am doing great and cancer free. My female plumbing did not fare quite as well. LOL Childbirth is over rated anyway. ;) I went to storage today and got my orchid. I am looking at the box like a little kid....fingers itching to open it. I told myself I had to finish my other projects first. Like that is gonna happen. I bet dollars to donuts I am in that baby tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

havanaholly Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Hi Morgan, it is very nice to meet you too. I have lots of misadventures so you should be pleasantly entertained. Yes, Lony, but if you call them "learning experiences" it makes you sound smart when you pass the things they've taught you along to newer members. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lony Posted September 16, 2012 Author Share Posted September 16, 2012 Holly you are so right. My life is filled with learning experiences. Although misadventures sounds like more fun. :groucho: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanaholly Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Once you get to my age, misadventures are so commonplace you really do think of them as learning experiences, instead. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
