We did talk about one single generic welcome thread. It has to live somewhere and people are used to welcome forums.

We can have the forum but with one thread and the rules stickied. We should be able to lock a forum to new threads.

I'm on the "rompus [sic]" theme. I dig the green, almost as much as I dug TR in purple.

So what was wrong with Ratz? I barely ever posted there but it didn't give the impression of being somewhere with a particularly draconian ruleset. Maybe it's already discussed elsewhere on this forum, but I'm late for morning coffee and have to run!

Hi all!
I recognise some names, but at least one person is using a different one to what I'm used to, which made registering a bit awkward.
And the random questions need a bit of work. "what colour is the sky?" I live in England, so of course it's grey, but that wasn't allowed! :D

Welcome!

Let me show you around... there's mafia of course...random romps is where we put funny web stuff... mind romps is where we get a bit serious out of public view - oversharing and the like. Some nice photography down in the arts section...

Just poke around and feel free to ask questions or carefully back away depending on what thread you hit. :christyes:

Well thanks for the welcomes

I guess a little bit more about me,

I am a writer, and I do coaching.

50 years old and rebuilding my life and business after the ex and I split the tail end of last year. Long story lets just say I am moving forward. I am pretty open about things, and like to have fun. I also refuse to let my disabilities be limitations :)

My ex introduced me to MS about 4 1/2 years ago and I fell in love with the game and the site. Made a lot of friends over there and even though I kind of dropped out for a few months right after the split, went back.

I am a survivor and have been through a lot, So far I like what I see here and think it will be a good place for me.

I have two cats

First there is the pampered princess, Feisty who definitely lives up to her name. She is a hefty sized grey tabby and white domestic medium hair. I got her when she was only 6 weeks old and so small she fit on my hand snuggled up against my breast so sweet and cute, She prefers males though, and since currently I have none around (after the split with the ex and my adopted bro moved back to OK after getting me moved to a tiny one bedroom apartment it has just been me and the cats).

Then there is Lucky, he is clearly part Siamese based on his build and his voice he really can yowl, I had to put him in the bedroom this afternoon so I could record a video for a series of videos I am doing on FB and Youtube as part of my moving forward to rebuild my business.

He is grey and white bicolor too. I call him the bumbling prince because it fits him. I inherited him from my dad who rescued him off the street a few months before he (my dad) died. Lucky has some issues, but he is a very sweet cat.

There is a story behind my avatar, I have a couple long time online friends who are brothers in Canada and both like to play around with digital artwork. Carey, the one who did my avatar actually got quite famous in a game we all three played for making avatars for people. He made several for me over the years all of them mages with red hair. So when I found out the requirements for an avatar for MS when I joined there, I asked him to modify and shrink down one of the avatars he had of girls with guns, and asked him to make her hair red.

Yes I am a redhead in RL though not that red lol more of an auburn though as a kid I was strawberry blonde.

I don't expect everyone to like cats :)

Actually I am pretty much about unconditional love and acceptance of pretty much everyone. About the only people I really have issues with are the small minded bigoted idjits who try to force me to share their beliefs or tell me I am evil for mine. Um yeah and I live in Cleveland TN and well it IS rather isolating because I am surrounded by said people.

Like my landlord's maintenance man who believes in discrimination against the disabled. He totally refuses to repeat himself when he talks to me and just gets mad because I did not hear him the first time. Never mind the fact he was walking toward the next apartment over and not looking at me, speaks with a heavy accent, and totally does not enunciate or project his voice, but I am at fault in his mind for not hearing him.

I really need to get out of this state :(

There is no way I would be able to ride a unicycle, I can't even balance on a regular bicycle I rode 3 wheelers lol

For a while I had one with a nice trailer attached that Ben would ride in and I used to take him shopping and to school and so on. Between the trike and the trailer they were almost as long as some cars. Before I got the trailer, I walked through 4 strollers.

um where would be a good place for non photographic artwork like colored in mandalas and so on.

I use paint usually to color with instead of hands on. Both designs I have done and coloring pages I have from online.

For example here is a mandala I created then colored in with paint on the computer

https://scontent-iad3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/11987113_10153652596281318_2320772897887950754_n.j pg?oh=96a1bd20d1714dd9c5d41e29ef9ba45a&oe=5831B7D0


This is a drawing available as a free coloring page but I colored it in using Paint. Because of my life, the phoenix has profound meaning to me. My life has gone into ashes before and each time I have, like the phoenix, risen from the ashes. When I thought of a name for my business of course it had to have phoenix in it. Waiting for my one artist friend to finish redoing the logo a bit, then I will put up the WordPress website for it with the logo and all.

I love it though it did take me a LONG time to get the painting just so on it.

one of my projects will be doing adult coloring books on createspace. I want to do ones with mindset quotes I create, or some affirmations, things like that, along with the mandalas or other complex images.
