Hi I'm a new Cafe Mom

Good evening, how is everyone tonight?

I am new to Cafe Mom and my name is Maela Rose, a divorced mom of many, many years.  I have two grown adult children one son and a daughter who I simply adore.  Even though I love them to death, one is out of the house and I am working on the other one to scadoodle.  You know they have to fly on their own some day. 

I am a writer who does Vinyasa yoga and loves to meditate seven days a week.  I also work with gift baskets and floral bouquets at Marlas Gift Baskets.  I love working with arts and crafts and pottery as my hobbies.  I love the outdoors and enjoy many activities outside the home.

I am glad I joined Cafe Moms this evening.  I believe all moms can benefit from each other by sharing and communicating ideas, information, stories, life's experiences and challenges.

 Hello Maela Rose. You have a unique and quite pretty name! Thats a cute picture too :) We have some things in common. I am a florist and we do many gift baskets too. I would love to see some pictures of your work. We might get some ideas from each other, tips, things like that.

I would like to get into Yoga too. I have a daughter with R Arthritis and it would be good for her I'm told.

This is a good group. We have lots of fun in here. We do give each other advice. Sometimes its not that nice, but we can be blunt. Don't take that personally! We try to learn from each other. Its also a great place to come just to have fun with other Moms. We are mostly good friends!

Glad to have you!

Michell

Hello. 

I am an article and novel writer.  I write all kinds of articles on clothing, recipes, food, entertainment to arts and crafts.  I also write novels about nature.  I usually write in my spare time since I own my own gift basket and flower business.  It's a great business to be in and I enjoy every minute of it.  It's quite fulfilling helping others with their gifting needs.

This is a great forum to get to know other Cafe Moms.

What do you do for a living?

Hi Dixie,  how are you?

Thank you for the warm welcome to Cafe Mom, I appreciate it!  This forum sounds like a neat place to express your thoughts and to get to know other moms out there.  I did browse a little bit the other day when I was on Cafe Mom and noticed there are a lot of different forums to join.  I may just do that.  Thanks for the great advice.  What a great feeling to be buying your own house!  How is Vegas?  I've never been to Vegas yet!  But I have heard plenty of stories about Vegas.

How long have you been on Cafe Mom?   simple smile

Hi Michell,

 

Thank you for welcoming me to Cafe Mom.  I appreciate it!  Yes, yoga is very helpful for arthritis and many other conditions as it stretches and relaxes the muscles in the body.  Yoga relieves tightness of the muscles, pain in the joints and ligaments and soothes aches and pains.  Vinyasa, Bikram and Ayurvedic yoga would be good choices look into for your daughter.

Wow, so you work with gift baskets and flowers too!  That's great!  I usually don't come across other people who are in the gift basket and floral business.  It's a wonderful business for me and it is so fulfilling and enjoyable.  I don't make any baskets or floral arrangements because the baskets are already made for me.  You see, I own my own gift basket and flower business online.  But it is still rewarding to help others with their gifting needs.  I would love to show you photos of my work, but since I don't make the baskets, cookie bouquets and flowers you would have to go to marlasbellabaskets.com to view my online business.

It's been a pleasure to get to know you.  Have a great Sunday!simple smile
