A little bit about me...

Linda from Howick

My name is Linda. I am a widow, since 2005 and have worked on and off while finishing off raising our 8 children.
I'm looking to have a garage sale but first l have fruit and bamboo I'd like to somehow harvest.
I've lost a lot of weight this year and I'm in my 50s.
I know I can and I'd like to somehow inspire others.
I have lead and still do lead an interesting life and would like to meet others who may or may not be like myself.
Not a lot of qualifications outside the office but Many, many important life skills I would love to share.
I find myself with a bit of time between taking my elderly parents shopping every Friday and other appointments etc when necessary.
I also have beautiful twin grandchildren who are Autistic. I often have them over as well as their baby sister.
And a 4th grandchild on the way.
Most of my kids are in NZ, but I have 1 in Canada with her husband.
1 soon to move to Chile with his expectant partner.
I am also an animal lover. All but 1 of my pets are gone now.
Here's to the Future.

Linda Humby
I might meet some of you in the future.
