Hi everyone,

I feel incredibly stereotypical making an I wasn’t expecting so much engagement post, but, well… I really wasn’t expecting much engagement at all.

I guess by being on the side that typically sends messages I’ve been ignorant to how many of us are actually here. I’m so glad I decided to make my own post, and further, I’m humbled people actually felt compelled to send me a message and tell me about themselves. At this point I haven’t sent any replies, but I’ve mostly caught up on reading messages.

I have plans with some of my gal pals this evening, so I likely won’t be able to start responding until late tonight or sometime tomorrow. I’m planning to leave my original post up until then, at which point I’ll take it down so I don’t get any new chats.

I hope everyone enjoyed the solstice—I, myself, am greatly looking forward to the longer days and sunshine.

Stay warm! x
