Hi Everyone

Just joined., finally. Thankfully not in the state that I usually visit this brilliant site i.e. the umpteenth day one. Its about day ten or so. For better or worse, days one to four usually are not a problem, as Im a weekend binger. Anyway, still working on the big plan, having started a few times already. Its carnival season in Louisiana, so will have to hang tough during the revelry, but did ok last weekend. Having a minor cold helped. So best cheer to all; really appreciate the thoughtful posts I've read as a lurker over the past couple of years. There are some really big hearts, gifted writers, and much wisdom.

I love your user name! Takes me back to the good ol' days of television...


Welcome to the SR family. Congrats on ten days sober. The longer you're sober, the better you'll feel.

Glad you joined us.

Hi GetSmart and welcome!

Carnival season was always one of my favorite times of the year, until I came of age. It was never as much fun after I was old enough for the darker twist. Maybe we can both enjoy the next few days as a celebration of life? Let's wear our beads and eat our king cake with a clear mind and in good health!

Glad you're here!

Well, even (esp?) sober, it is fun to catch the beads and I LOVE the marching bands, and tellng the tourists that mardi gras is great for the kids. They never believe until they see it.

The username took a while and was even a reason for continuing to lurk (along with that image capture spiderbot verification that I failed once or twice!). I did not want sth. too negative or remorseful, but neutral would not do either (some random pen name) because it had to be a conscious step. And I am tired of feeling stupid, so get smart popped into my head one day. I guess it does date me (50 in a few months) and place me in the usa. I had a crush on agent 99.

Welcome, GetSmart! I encourage you, as a kind woman on SR encouraged me over a year ago, "Post, post, post!"
