New'ish', saying hi

Hey everyone! Would say I'm new, except that I'm not 'brand new', it's more like 'returning' from a long time ago It's been so long that I do not even recognize the place, lol. Lots of changes made, I like! Also haven't much of a clue as to what I'm doing. Did leave my shoes at the door, brought soft slippers if that's ok. hehe. I think I got my avatar in right. (Ok so I didn't get it right yet, lol).

Okies, that outta the way... Will do this part next.. I am an old lady, sixty and holding. (really, i should have held at 29, but now it's too late, oh well). Living in Nebraska, cow and corn country, in the middle of a teensy tiny town where a 'traffic jam' consists of 3 cars at one of the few stop signs. Or a combine going down the middle of both lanes. Have three grown sons, five grand kids, seven furry grand dogs (Siberian Huskies.. one is pure white w/dark blue eyes, looks like the wolf in my avi), and am owned by a persnickety and stubborn dachshund, who allows me to live in his abode.

So why did I leave this wonderful place a long time ago? Well... it's like this. I became awake and aware here, learned tons, just HAD to share with my family, and two of my sons were like, 'ermmm mom, back away from the computer, slowly now, don't hurt yourself'. LOL Like a dang fool, I listened to them then. Not anymore, I don't give a rat's patooty if they worried. So am back, just don't tell them til after thanksgiving, mkay? hehe.

Looking forward to getting to know folks all over again, and meeting new like-minded friends.

Hi! Lovely introduction, beautiful avatar, I am looking forward to laugh with you somewhere in the depths of this nutty place.

An otter ain't always got an ass like a beaver.
My great grandfather used to say that one if I said "It oughta."

Funny you should say that...

Back when I was knee hight to a grass hopper my grandad used to come out with this question which became the "crap" family joke :

"What is a water otter?"

For which we kids and then adults always replied :

"We don't know grandad... what is a water otter?"

To which he replied

"A kettle"

Thanks grandad...

Kindest respects
