Warm Midwest Greetings from Central IL

[distracted_mom]

I'm a SAHM, chronic volunteer, wife of 19 years, mother to a 16-year-old son and 13-year old daughter, and master to two cats and one dog.
My other interests include scrubbing ink off of my hands, reading, photography, talking too much, and cheering on my kids. :)

Welcome to the madness, Indulge1

[distracted_mom]

I think my husband might use the term "Sickness." ;)

Welcome home. Pull up a stump and set a spell. Gotta question you being the master of cats though.

[Anne]

Hello and Welcome! Wow, you are busy - I am glad you set aside time for fountain pens ( and ink ;) ) I hope you have fun here :)

Welcome from a GGTW (gotta go to work) mom. I don't even try to get the ink off my fingers, clothes, dog...

I am an eternal optimist!

I find that red is the worst...people really stare then.

...just don't let them see you with a syringe full of it :eek:
Filling a pen with red ink is probably best done at home!

[Serendipity]

Welcome to FPG! I've also learnt that skin is highly absorbent... I'm not sure my prints are still visible... but I try not to scour too much. I've also learnt to hold some pens further up, although I created a cellotape 'guard' until I could trust myself. :) Enjoy your time here!

[Juana]

Glad to meet you.

[Bisquitlips]

Welcome to you! Thank you for joining!

We love photos and knowledge.

Join in!

Welcome from another addict in Illinois.

Are you going to the Chicago show?

I completely missed this as I got distracted by InCoWriMo.
I don't know about the Chicago Pen Show yet. Unfortunately my kids will be in baseball and softball season then, so it depends on schedules. I have 2 and 4 years left until they fly the coop, so I am spending as much of these last precious years with them as I can.

[Waltman]

Welcome, lots of nice and knowledgeable people here, enjoy!
