Hi there, Boys and Girls!

[HeiressofBickworth]

I'm back. Did anyone notice I was gone?

2016 wasn't a good year. Bypass surgery, months of rehab and restrictions and when I started feeling better, BANG, came the elections. I cried all night, even waking up others in the house with my wailing and gnashing of teeth. Didn't do much for my recovery. Since then, I've been keeping up with the (fake?) news and have been impressed with how all you DU'ers have been keeping the faith.

So, here I am, once again filled with piss and vinegar and looking for a target (not to upstage dear SKITTLES!).

Glad to meet you.

6. Hey ya

I remember your user name, but that's about it.

[HeiressofBickworth]

12. I've never been a prolific writer

so no reason to remember anything about me. By being here, you may surmise I'm a flaming liberal. Yup. I'm also a grandmother and probably qualify as an old geezer (71). But hey, what the heck, I'm not dead yet!

[Fla Dem]
