Just started today. I look forwards to reading and chatting etc.. here. I have lots to learn. I have some gardening skills, basic stuff mostly, arts n crafts, blah blah blah. I'm hoping to find a new start someday but not till I know some people or find a way to get where I want to go. More later!
Welcome to the monkey Lara. Having a goal and a dream are good. Honing your skills to achieve your dream is smart. Glad you are here.
Welcome aboard Lara. Lots of knowledgeable folks around to provide guidance, and I'd be willing to bet you have a few tidbits that can help others as well Make yourself at home!
Welcome Lara.. Being able to make things for yourself is a great asset, and to make them appealing to the eye is even better..
Welcome Lara from the resident vegetarian cannibal. The range of knowledge and experience at SM is wide and deep, and the residents are very helpful. There is a closet for prayers (F&R Forum Prayer Closet | Survival Forums ) and there are also closets for liberals, democrats, Obama enthusiasts and non gender conforming and queer individuals. The site has a wide range of useful downloadable resources on prepping and survival topics ( Resource Discussions | Survival Forums ), and The Reading Room (Survival Reading Room | Survival Forums ) contains a lot of entertaining and informative fiction and non-fiction literature. If you should have any technical or other issues with the site, don't hesitate to PM one of the moderators / administrators. Nice poem in your opening post. I think you and RightHand will have much to share.
Another new monkey - welcome aboard. Good people here, helpful and courteous mostly. Some are occasionally grumpy but just overlook that.
