Hi Everyone, I have just read all the forums and I am not sure if I should have replied to our group creator rather than start a new topic but here goes -
I will be 51 in October and feel as if I am just now getting my life where it is suppose to be. I got divorced a year ago May 6 (but whose counting) and for the first time in my adult life have been enjoying a sense of freedom and confidence that I have never felt before. For almost 23 years I was a 'stay home mom' with part time mindless jobs although I always went to a watercolor painting class once a week when my kids were in school. About 10 yrs ago I noticed people were interested in buying my paintings and then started to focus on becoming more of a professional, and I guess I could say the last 5 yrs I have been working very hard to be successful with my art. Now that I am single I do need to produce more income and my art alone isnt cutting it but I am determined, I am smart, I am 'fearless', and if I work hard there is nothing I can not do! It is challenging at times, I have 3 kids (21, 18, 13) and not the greatest relationship with their father. I guess thats all everyone needs to know, but I could go on and on! Oh, and I very much enjoy the internet and this scuttlebutt site.
Robin
