Nice to meet you.

Welcome, Lipsticklady!
Isn't it amazing how much time you end up with when you're not worried about what you look like every minute of the day? When I was pre-surgery I was spending most of my time trying to find something in the closet that still fit ... I was buying new wardrobes twice a year, every year, for probably a decade.
Now? I have clothes from ten years ago that still fit (are a bit big, actually) and I can buy whatever I want in stores without "X" after a number on their sizes. It's amazing.
And I think we're gonna get along fine -- I'm more of a "ask forgiveness, not permission" type too.

I had to check out your profile because I know a Cheryl Denomy who lives in Pembroke Ontario!!
Welcome aboard! This is definitely a life changing thing, and the energy alone to want to do more is simply worth it all!
