There you go, putting Lis down again. Just stop it! ;>)

The new Facebook doesn't bother me any more than the old Facebook. It helps me keep better contact with family and friends, and I've reconnected with a few classmates. My Repub family posts the same nonsense they used to send in emails, but now I have LisB on my side.

FB seems to be angering a great number of people, yes. I hear they are rolling out a whole new profile page/timeline mechanism this week or next. Not sure how I'll feel about it until after I've had some time to play around with it...but I just can't leave FB altogether yet. Too many friends and family members there that I wouldn't hear from otherwise.

Please send me your newest email address when you can, as I seem to have lost it again. Oops.

Hey,

Well we've been keeping in touch on FB but I just quit FB and will not be joining the google thing (pissed off about their participation with Fox News etc) so I'm glad you'll be posting here. I think I'll just spend more time out there in 'real life', lol. I'll send you a better email address to reach me:)

(Thank you.) One great thing

In reply to Oh, Lis. So glad to see

(Thank you.)

One great thing about all of this is that my mother has a GREAT sense of humor, and we both get giggle fits throughout the day when we're together. So the laughter part should be very, very easy for us. The other good thing is the four cats. Watching them learn (slowly) to get along -- or at least try to tolerate each other -- has been a lot of fun, and we've learned a lot from them. Mom's cats have been very accommodating, for the most part. They had to move with my mother to the first-floor bedroom, and in doing so have pretty much given up the second floor of the house to my cats. But in the meantime, my cats don't only rule the upstairs, but try to follow me around downstairs as well. Benny and Joon only have Mom's room as a sanctuary now, and even then my cats will sometimes stroll in there to check things out. Seeing Mom's cats bristle at this makes me realize that I also need to give my mother her space and not just "take over" the whole place. :)

Thanks for welcoming me back, Ramona, it's nice to feel comfortable writing again. Not that my post was well-written. I'm woefully out of practice. But I'll work at it.

Oh, Lis. So glad to see you're writing again at dag, where so many of your old friends show up from time to time. I don't think G and A really want all politics all the time, and these personal pieces are always welcome.

It sounds like you've given these new changes in your life a lot of thought and I know you have a good thing going with your mom, so the chances that it will work out for both of you should be right up there.

Two women in one house makes life interesting, but in order for it to work you each have to promise to find something to laugh about at least 10 times a day. A surefire plan for success. (You're welcome.)

Oleeb, thank you so much.

Oleeb, thank you so much. You made me cry (but in a good way). Thank you for this beautiful comment. I promise to treasure my time with Mom.

I'm all for letting my freak flag fly, hahahaha...

And I agree with your assessment of Obama right now. He's done a lot over the past few weeks to make me smile with pride.

Thanks, Genghis. :) And,

In reply to Hey Lis. It's good to hear

Thanks, Genghis. :) And, no, don't take Destor's advice - I think the Personals section would get kinda scary here, especially with the likes of Jolly Roger around, hahahahaha....
