I-- Am the wise and wonderful GGMA!

I've always wanted to say that.😁

It took me a moment to write this because I have been a "lurker" for quite some time and I love this place, but there are so many great minds here that I admit to being more than a little intimidated (there are posters here that are big favorites and I read them immediately).

But I also felt it was time to quit sitting on the sidelines and participate (here and there).

So here I am, and I hope I can fit in.

I have always felt intimidated, too. I don't let it stop me, though. You can always just hang out here in the Lounge, that's what I do.

If I can fit in, you can too!!!!!!!

I've made some great and wonderful flubs around here, let me tell you! But I think I've had some good things to say from time to time. The thing to remember is to not let the flubs get you down. Everyone makes every once in a while. I'm sure you're going to impart wonderful words of wisdom to us!

Luv and hugs!!!!
