I am still evolving. I love good conversation, and am comfortable with silence.
I'm not average, I definitely do things my way, and I'm comfortable with that. If you prefer "normal", it's not quite here.
I am an introvert but I need connections with people.
I love to travel and visit new places and I love my home. I have lived all over the US and overseas, moved 23 times. However, I don't intend to ever move from Omaha. As long as the grandchildren are nearby, I'm here.
My kids are self supporting adults that live nearby, there are 2 grandchildren so far, 5 grandcats and a granddog. Grandchildren are pretty amazing.
I live with cats. The cats are people. Small, loving, fur covered people who endlessly amuse me. (see pictures)
I am a crafter and creative person. I knit, crochet, sew, quilt, make lip balms and soaps, and more.
I like estate sales, I enjoy finding things that can be re-purposed and possibly sold elsewhere.
I love to read, I usually have at least one book on my nightstand, and usually one or two overdue at the library.
I have a garden, tomatoes fresh off the vine taste like sunshine. If you have never tasted that, you've been deprived.
I try to eat less meat and sugars, and more veggies. The garden helps. However, I did grow up in Nebraska and live here again and sometimes.... sometimes it has to be steak.
I carry a pocket knife most of the time. It is small and pink. It saves wear and tear on my nails - see creativity and gardening.
I also have fake nails, they make me happy.
If you've read my postings you may have figured out I'm pretty liberal.
I am an encourager, a advocate for other women, for children, for the oppressed and the struggling, and for everyone in my life.
I am very self sufficient, however something just can't be done alone.
I have a drill and I know how to use it. In fact I have two drills.
I don't smoke cigarettes, and don't like to be around them.
I don't care for sports, professional or college. GBR is not often heard in my house, if you don't know what that is that is a good thing. NASCAR is not considered at all, ever.
I turned the cable off in 2015. I stream if/when I watch TV.
I'm plump, my curves have curves. I've had more and I've had fewer.
I drive a Toyota Rav4 that is 11 years old. It has a sun roof and it is paid for. I plan to drive it til my kids take the keys away from my cold dead hands.
I'd like to find a partner for the rest of the journey. Life can be a cold, journey, sharing makes the load lighter and warmer.

Hi @Akfishlady, I've been L7 for a while but didn't join before, likely because I've been having so much fun at the open forum. I hope it's ok. If there are any protocol rules I should be aware of, please let me know.
