I'm back

Post by KAV »

Hello to everyone! finances, or the grave lack of same kept me offline. In truth, I experienced how people can become invisible and disenfranchised. I am still without a car. However, my brothers both suffer diabetes from obesity and I weigh @ what I did in my 20s. The TeeVee went and I actually read all the books I thought I had and live quite nicely without Judge Judy, car chases and Justin Bieber.
My nieghbor kindly let me use her signal and I dusted off the laptop and took two days remembering how it works. I actually managed a small order fro Bullgoose! I've been using up all the assorted gifted soaps from so many of you. I[promise not to resurrect to many ancient posts!

Wonderful to have you back, KAV! We've missed your unique perspective around here, and we'll all be better off having you back among the flock!

Glad to hear you're doing well - and here's to reading many more posts from you soon!

Ah KAV!...indeed....welcome back. I too have experienced being "invisible and disenfranchised" in this society and, while I can't honestly recommend it, it did have it's attractions and advantages. If you check the back posts from around when you disappeared you will see that you were missed.
Regards,
Gordon
