It wasn't what I intended when I started writing.
But here it is!

I'm learning/building on my poetry skills, so your comments and suggestions are most welcome.
Well, what a beautiful surprise this morning.

I checked in after my first day "on the job" so to speak.
Some kind and generous Anonymous Person gifted me a year's Upgraded Membership.
How awesome is that!?!?

Yesterday, I did two reviews and a couple minor things to get acquainted, and this happened!
Whoever you are you, you are appreciated; I am grateful. *Heart* *Hug1**Smile**Hug2*

I'm looking forward to (at least) a year in this, obviously, wonderful community!

-Jo *Peace*
