Ok I made a weird assumption that putting up my personal photo would let young boys know that I'm definitely not in their age group and therefore, not looking for romance at all.

1. I want to be very clear to people that I'm not a teenager by any means. I'm in my early 30's to set the record straight.

2. I'll put up a picture of my husband James and I.

I'm married and no, I don't want to be a cougar. (James just looked over my shoulder and says he approves this post, lmao) I'm also definitely not a minor. This issue means that should anyone 18 and over indulge in sexual contact with a minor--is dealing with jail bait. It's a delicate situation and a law to protect minors. While some teens might be offended by this, I just want to make it crystal clear that I will -NOT- tolerate it. It's immoral, distasteful to myself and illegal.

3. To young men who think it's 'easier to get an older woman to have sex with him,' well, this is a fallacy. Many of us older married women enjoy our personal lives and really are -NOT- looking for a romantic encounter on Mizahar. It's awkward to receive these propositions. I'm old enough to know that rejection hurts people's feelings. However, sometimes an adult female needs to let the very young man know that his advances are inappropriate, uncalled for, uncomfortable and not welcome. If someone puts 'cougar on the look out' feel free to hit her up. I, however, am not one of them. Unfortunately I needed to stress this very publicly because saying no wasn't clear enough. If you were offended by the rejection, please keep in mind that I stated up front: I'm almost twice your age, married and not looking for any advances; so think hard before making that sexual proposal and then being inordinately offended by the not surprising rejection.

4. I'm here to RP, write, make friends, have friendly chat, share pics and jokes and photos and make some great memories. Are you? Then lemme know! I'm a chatterbox--like you couldn't tell!

Set the record straight *thumbs up*
And, I approve of your shirt in that picture. Yay London!

[Silvy]

Hehe thanks Aspen!

My great grams was from London and some of the family visits back and forth between there and the states. I occasionally use strange, London style and out of date terms. She lived to the grand age of 78 and I'll always have fond memories of visiting London as a child! <3

Have you been to London? Oh I remember going to a lovely garden show and the roses were amazing! It's one my earliest and fondest memories. I think my gardening instincts come from grams.

[Aspen]

Oh that's cool!

And yes I have, many times. I'm from Surrey, which is very close to it. And my Aunt used to live in the city. So yeah, London was always my first stop for shopping haha.

Long story made short:
*Sciatica acting up again,
*Love, adore Miza and the new friends I'm making,
*I'll check daily to see if Varian and others have posted and will reply in a timely manner,
*Behind on my painting on a medium canvas and 2 enormous ones.
*Starting a painting series of ideas of the original stipple farm I showed with minor variations of shading and color added.

[Faroul]

Your new art projects sound fun - good luck! As for the two enormous canvasses, just how enormous is enormous?

Also, your dogs are so bad. Tearing up the couch, tearing up your sister's bag - talk about rascals. I bet they give you puppy eyes when they get caught, too.
