I'd really enjoy a forum especially for women over 40. It's fun chatting with all ages groups, but it would be nice to have the option to talk with women in my own age bracket. Thanks!
Nice to hear that you're getting a little fresh air, Lezbeth. I've been following the news of the wildfires....awful! It's still TOO wet here...doesn't seem fair. May you thoroughly enjoy your much-need breather.
Do ya think while you are in Oakland you can check on my girl....she's in San Leandro and broke her collar bone helping her Dad last month...J/K...about checking in on her. Good idea to go see the sites while you are there.....I so miss the "Gay Bay"
Every day is a good day, just some are better than others.
Sorry to hear that!!
Way to find the Silver lining, Vancover IS incredibly beautiful!!
I've only been to the East coast which is also breathtaking but not nearly popular.
Been a while since I've sent ya'll some lovin' music - a great one from my girl, Anastacia......... "I Belong to You"....... a very dear friend sent me this one - this is for her...
"I'm confusing as hell,
I'm North and South
and I'll probably never have it
all figured out, but what I know is
I wasn't meant to walk this world without you."KC
"I have a smile stretched from ear to ear
To see you walking down the road
We meet at the lights
I stare for a while
The world around disappears
Just you and me
On this island of hope
A breath between us could be miles"
"Let me surround you
My sea to your shore
Let me be the calm you seek
Oh and everytime I'm close to you
there's too much I can't say and
you just walk away
And I forgot to tell you
I love you"
"Anytime you feel like you just can't hold on just hold onto my
love and I'll help you be strong
But you're so afraid to lose, and baby I can't reach your heart
I can't face this world that's keeping us apart,
When I can be the one to show you
Everything you missed before
Just hold on now, cause I could be the one to give you more
Let you know"
"I'm confusing as hell
I'm North and South
and I'll probably never have it

Anyone have any fabulous plans for the summer? I'm moving later this month, and starting a new job in the fall, so no major plans, but The New Girlfriend and I just got back from Bethel Woods, the concert venue at the old Woodstock site, where we saw the Doobie Brothers and Chicago (okay, so we're definitely over 40!). And we stayed at a gorgeous B&B on a bluff overlooking the Upper Delaware River...definitely gotta go back there for the fall colors...
Woodstock!...the Doobie Brothers, Chicago...You took me back, Susan...(I was a little young for Woodstock, but I certainly grew up with all that great music!)
I had to use all my vacation for this recent surgery, so no plans for me. It's been nice being away from work tho.
That trip sounds so romantic!!
No major plans here either, just a couple of weekends. One in Montreal at a sweet B&B in the gay village, and the other at a park that's sounds like Labinky(I've never been there but I have high hopes!!).
Find the silver lining...

Does anyone know of any chats for the 40+? Looking to hang out in cyberspace and talk about life with other great minds...ok, i'd be crashing that party. still, help a sister out.
The only online chats for us 40+ers is on paltalk adult content so no kids allowed. Be warned that they might ask for you to cam up and mic up so that they know that your not some man pretending to be a woman. If anyone wants to chat, send me a message and we can set a time to meet.

Hey everybody! Does anyone else get Logo? Do you know they are starting to air the L Word tonight? The first show, first season is on at 10pm ET (it's 7pm here on the West Coast). YAY! Any body else going to watch?
BTW, the fires around here are so bad, everybody here is being encouraged to stay in the house, no exertion...air quality is off the charts. Outside, it's almost like a campfire blowing your way, but you can't step around it to get up wind. The sun is out, but we haven't seen it for 3 days. It's not as bad as the floods, I'm sure but SHEESH. I keep thinking the evangelicals around here are going to start blaming these wild fires on the same sex marriage thing. What do you bet?
Lezbeth
I have one too, actually (for working with chemicals when I mix glazes/clay, etc. Those fine powders reek havoc on the lungs). I wouldn't wear it inside, it'd scare the hell out of the bird. The only thing I REALLY need to do outside is walk my dog (poor baby, she's bored to tears). I don't want her breathing this stuff either and don't have a respirator to fit her. I can just picture it though and may want to draw a cartoon. In the meantime, the wind has shifted some and we've had a couple of periods where it's safe to breathe.
How are you doing? I've missed your cheerful presence.
Lezbeth
Doing well, thank you - missed you also! I am resting, eating, sleeping, mending, relaxing - learning to live the life of a "normal" human again! I'm actually not very good at it - it's a challenge. The wanderlust will set in pretty soon - then I'll take off to CO to see the son and recharge - hopefully write - so looking forward to it. Got lots of pent up thoughts that need to be penned!
I bet it will be hard to settle into a normal life, whatever the hell that is. A trip to CO would be great. I'm sure you saw a lot of things that have you hankering for a pen. I'd be interested in what you have to say, so if you put something on a blog, let us know, okay?
BTW, those shifting winds. Damn, they shifted again. Well, at least I know it can clear up for a day or an afternoon. In the meantime, my pets and I are huddled around our air purifier.

Glad you can breathe

Ouch
That sounds pretty painful. San Leandro? I know it's around here someplace. I hope she's getting better.
Lezbeth
She is...
but her parents are older and want her to be there for awhile, so I miss her and worry.
Every day is a good day, just some are better than others.
Have fun, Hon! So glad you can "breathe"
Go on down to the wharf and get a bread bowl of chowder for me at Boudin's!!!!
