SHEs Organized

Hello! I managed to lose my first post, so I will try again. I am one of the lurkers who contacted Indiana last week when the other site went down. My dh, DD36 and DD32 love to give me a hard time and call me a stalker when I mention something about the chat board I read. Just 2 weeks ago the subject came up and DD36 told me that I need to register before the site went down and I would have no way to find this group. i remembered her warning when the site went down last week. I had bookmarked Indianas site and contacted her. She sent me an invitation to the Yahoo group. I joined it and intended to register when the site came back up. When it came back up, being SHE I again didn't register. When this move was announced I made myself a promise that shy or not, I needed to join. I have followed this wonderful group of women through so many moves that I would be lost without it.

I spent a ridiculous amount of time agonizing over a username and now realize blabby, windy or gabby would have been more fitting. I know there are more lurkers out there and I hope they will join me as I jump in............

Hi Harriet! Yes, that was me you heard splashing around, even though I need to be in bed.

I have learned so much over the years from reading these boards. Once in a great while I would have an answer or solution to something but by not being registered I couldn't contribute. Looking back I wonder why it has taken me so long.

Well I have swam around enough for my first time in the water! Good night!

Lilac I'm so glad to see you posting.

I have been watching for you to register. I'm so happy that you had the address of my blog so you could contact me.

I'm looking forward to your posts.

May I add my welcome, too. And I like your name!!

This board has been my salvation over the years - first in organizing my house and then when I was getting rid of everything to sell it.

Come on over to the PWYC thread and say hello there, too.

May I add my welcome too.

I too like your name Lilac.

The ladies on this board are very warm and loving. I try to get on as often as possible as and am finding the site a welcome help.

Hi Lilac!

I'm a new village resident as well. I have visited a time or two previously, at the urging of former dear SHE friends from WAY back in the day at our original SHEs In Touch board - a bazillion light years ago!

I am so grateful I was on the mailing list to hear from Indy, receiving the new address and key! I came in to look around and thought WOW! This looks like a community of people and resources that I could greatly benefit from!

So...I swung open the door and took the plunge too! *splish!*

I have not had time to post all day, just a quick peek now and then.

I want to thank each of you for the warm welcome. I feel at home already!

I'm back. Our oldest Dd and her family had went out to eat and their van would not start, so I picked them up and took them home. Her and her dh will go back and see what the problem is. So I better get a late start on our dinner. I plan to hang out at PWYC and start posting soon.

Hello & welcome to Lilac! I like your name, too , and love the smell of lilac flowers. So glad you have joined us. I was a long time lurker, too. See you around the PWYC board.
