Just Chatting

[mdawn0711]

Just trying this out to see if there are any responses and if it does work.  Never did this before.

Gosh Indy!  I couldn't imagine not having the beauty of snow in the winter...especially during the holidays. (Although I must admit we had no snow for Christmas last year which seemed really strange!). 

[OscarE1968]

Good morning Ms LynneS 🌞 As the saying goes "The early bird gets the worm". I'd love to visit the UK beginning with Ireland then make my way thru Scotland and England. 

[OscarE1968]

@LynneS930241 may you also have a Wonderful day as well. I too am on Pacific time being I'm in Arizona. And kudos on getting you're passport be a good excuse to plan a trip somewhere. I went to Hawaii before the pandemic hit, it's Beautiful.

[TheresaB172419]

I would love to go to Hawaii 

[IndyMo]

Oscar, I agree with you about Hawaii. I have traveled over quite a lot of this old globe, and Hawaii is probably the most beautiful spot I've ever laid eyes on. Alaska has a rugged beauty, but those mountains don't  ask you to "come up here & swing in a hammock" like Hawaii does..  I was watching a homeless guy in the surf on Maui while he washed his clothes and then his hair and his beard and rinsed it all off in the ocean. Just up the breakwater from him was a breadfruit tree that was full of ripe fruit, and it hit me-My God, this is the best place in the world to be homeless ! We toured all five of the major islands-each amazingly different , but all very beautiful.

Hello, @LynneS930241, and welcome! I'm also a "Lynne with an e"😊

One way to get started with the AARP Online Community is to join in the Introduce Yourself forum and tell us a little about yourself and your interests. This way we can suggest some forums and discussions that may be of interest to you.

Thanks for being here!

[LynneS930241]

thanks for replying I will go and try to find introduce yourself . It is fun to find Lynne with an e. My mother and father thought I was a boy and they had my name picked out after my grandfathers  which was raymond and Linn so they called me lynne  rae. How did your name come to be spelled with and e?

[AARPLynne]

@LynneS930241, Lynne Rae has such a nice ring to it and how clever of them!

Since our last name is short my parents just thought it looked better to add the e and also when my whole name was spelled out with Regina, my middle name. But more sentimentally, it was a way to remember my late sister, Elizabeth Lynne, who passed away at age 2. They gave her name partly to me, Lynne Regina, and my sister, Karen Elizabeth.

By the way, this is the Introduce Yourself link: https://community.aarp.org/t5/Introduce-Yourself/bd-p/IntroduceYourself.)

Nice chatting with you😊

[LynneS930241]

[OscarE1968]

Hi everyone. Hope you all are doing well staying safe. I'm just looking for a Lady penpal to pass the time with. I'm 52 years young, live in Arizona.

[KerryH39788]

Hello: Where in AZ are you? I came out here to help my Aunt, who has cancer. Honestly, not enjoying it here very much. 
What exactly would you like to chat about?
How many lady friends are you chatting with?
I’d like to know how to get to “the private forum” or just chat via our individual email 

addresses. I’m not one to chat via open forums.

hope you’re doing well. Look forward to connecting with you.

Hi

[AARPLynne]

Hello, @FelicisL902175, welcome! How are you today?

[Lon1934]

There are no messages to reply to.  This site needs some work.

[VictoriaS219]

This site does need some work.  I don’t even know how to maneuver through it and I am very tech savvy.  

[ThomasW400671]

yup

[LynneS930241]

I am lost I have tried to find out how this works but I don't get any replies then after a while I check in again and still don't get a reply. what in the heck am I doing wrong

[WendellB235731]

hi it seems like that for me too. Hi, im from Kentucky. this is only my second day, ive been posting replies to people who seem like they want to chat but no replies yet; i can't figure it out either, can somebody please help us. Ms. Lynne and i need some assistance, please, thank you.

[OscarE1968]

@LynneS930241 I don't think you're doing anything wrong just not too much activity here

[WendellB235731]

oh is that whats up? sorry for butting in; i was lost too. its nice to finally connect after not hearing from anybody; its like the last man on earth for a long time,then he finally sees somebody, anybody to talk to. Like the movie Castaway (Tom Hanks) there was nobody so he painted a face on a volleyball and named it Wilson (famous maker of sports balls).
