Yes Bar-Bar I do know what you mean. The beginning of my "walk" was over 13 yrs ago and I still have my times. No one can fill that hole left by John. But we all are here for you never forget that

I still have an old email addy that says crockpot_bar_bar... I never did figure out how you came by that name. I assume that Barbszy gave it to you.
Welcome to all the new members I missed. Hope to see you around on the boards. Lots of things to interest you.

Yes I just receive something in the mail with your name on it from a contest I won and I thought to myself who is she... so it nice to met you... and thanks for holding me up in thoughts and prayers.
Of course I want to thank everyone for doing that as well.
Minny the name sort of started with a joke a long time ago and being silly I stretch it to it limit and Barbz was my ss once and she send me an apron with the name on it.. So I decided I needed another email name so I used it.... so in once sense Barbz was behind me using that as a email addy.
Yes Bilby it been a very long time, computer problems, John's health, moving, and then John's health again and then his death. It been about an yr sort of.. I was able to pop in for a very short time for the Xmas ornie exchange before computer went on haywire again...
It good to be back amoung friends and it keeping me busy.. as that I need.. I do need to do alot of cleaning and getting things in order with the house for that never happen
but I haven't had time and don't feel up to it now. so it can wait.
again thanks everyone for the welcome back.

Although I am not new here, BarBar reminded me that I had not introduced myself..so here goes....my name is Lisa and I am 47 years old and live in the midwest...I have a husband of 15plus years, and a 12 and 1/2 year old son, whom we adopted at the age of 3...I am interested in crafting, and organizing.. that's where I met BarBar... i taught severely physically and mentally handicapped children, who also were medically fragile, for 22 years, and had to quit teaching due to illness in 2005..it was one of the hardest things I ever had to do... I spend lots of my time now trying to take care of myself, trying to learn more about my illnesses, and 'fighting' with our insurance company and for my disability with our teacher's retirement system.... I am housebound most of the time, and am hoping that a new medication that I am taking will help me have some energy.. to do activities with my family and to practice my crafts.. I look forward to talking to lots of nice people, and to sharing experiences and advice...Lisas

Nice to meet you, where would you call the mid west, what state, sorry can be so US illiterate some times LOL
There would be so many things for you to see around the boards as there are many lovely people here who have the same interests, you'll have to share your craft photos.
Barbar I can be so behind on some threads and things, sorry to hear about your husband. Take care of yourself.
On the computer front mine is playing up at the moment and DH is swearing at it again as even he can't figure it out LOL so I'm on my limited laptop.
Cheers and hope we see you when you can get here.
