New here, a little introduction about me.

I am a senior lady, living in the southern United States. I enjoy the mild winters here compared to northern Idaho, where I grew up. I have shoveled all the snow that I ever want to have to shovel in this lifetime !
I love horses, and have ridden most of my life , ever since my first childhood pony ; however, I am 76 years old now, and live in town, so no more horses in my life.
I still enjoy yard work and gardening, and in the cold weather, then it is reading books and maybe knitting socks or crocheting something.
I am looking for a friendly place to have conversations, and make new online friends, and being able to earn a little extra money as I make friends is the icing on the cake.

What a fine gentleman you are. ! thank you for the welcome.
Unfortunately, it is quite cold, even inside the house, and so I am not giving my coat up at all, and people will just have to put up with my “bundled up” look for the time being.
Of course, if you have a nice fire going somewhere here, then most certainly, you may take my coat......

Ah-haa ! Now I know why you wanted to take my coat ! It was not just being gentlemanly, it was because it looks warm and you are freezing , too.

I see that you are from the UK. By chance have you ever read the book “ Talking With Horses”, by Henry Blake ? He did interesting experiments in the mental communication between horses, and with people, back around the 1940’s.
It is one of the most interesting books that I have ever read.

I remember, years ago, my mother-in-law (who has long-since passed away) told me that inside the body of every 75 year old woman, beats the heart of a 17 year old girl.
Now that I am there, I can see that she was right. The old body won’t do what it used to, but in my mind and my heart, I am still that same younger person .
Your grandmother probably felt that way, too.

Welcome aboard from one quite senior to another 
I am looking for a friendly place to have conversations, and make new online friends, and being able to earn a little extra money as I make friends is the icing on the cake. Then you are in exactly the right place!
I have been away for just over a year and returned this week- It feels just like coming home as so many friends from the past are here.
Have fun and I look forward to reading you more

I love to read, and like to be outside, but don't get much yard work accomplished. I think I have mowed my way halfway around the world in my lifetime, and I don't want to anymore. I have only been in here a few months, still feeling my way, although I must admit that I am not here some days, it's rather hit and miss. I did receive a nice welcome when I joined here, I hope you like it here, too.
