I tend to talk too much about myself at times, and am working on that, but since this is the place to let people know a bit about myself, here goes. I'm a 54 year old woman on VA disability for ptsd living in Oklahoma. I used to take amateur photos when I had a camera, and hope to get another one soon. Maybe in a few days, who knows. I hope this isn't breaking any rules to leave this here..it's not for any monetary purposes, just some of the photos I have taken. https://www.flickr.com/photos/139245408@N07/

Are you a fan of Leon Russell?

I'm familiar with him, but not very, sorry to say. Will have to give more of his tunes a listen. I like singers like Jim Croce and Gordon Lightfoot, and also listen to old delta blues, reggae, southern fried classic rock, and at times, swing music. I have eclectic tastes. Most recently, I have been listening to Off Kilter.

Howdy Doody, Amyishere! Welcome to the forum.

I had plans to spend a couple days in Broken Arrow, OK last July (Drum Corps show) that got scuttled by COVID. Maybe next year.

Whenever I hear someone say "Hello, it's me.", I think of this:

Very nice compositions. Thanks for sharing.

Welcome aboard, hope you enjoy the site and people here, don't take any of it too seriously, remember that this is supposed to be fun.
Good Luck
 
@Amyishere, the Oklahoma Sooners football team humiliated my beloved Florida Gators in the Cotton Bowl last night. Congratulations to Oklahoma fans!

You might want to post photos in the Tavern, in a thread specific to photos. Please add a bit of narration, as in location and context. Many of the photos look like someplace other than Oklahoma.

Welcome to DP! Feel some Trippy T. Love! Let's ROCK this forum in 2021!
 
Welcome to DP and Happy New year!

thanks! backatcha

I'm enjoying myself, so it is fun of a kind, thanks. Haven't felt so welcome in quite a while.

maybe she's more into JJ Cale

Not that familiar with JJ Cale either.

This is kinda what I like best, although like I said, my musical tastes vary.




I am sure that would cause anyone anxiety. Can't you afford to move?

In the meantime, welcome to the forum!

I lived in Oregon from 2014 until the end of September of this year. Earlier in the year, I lost a home to bankruptcy, and was staying in motels until some friends helped me out with the funds needed to make the road trip to Oklahoma, where I found an apartment I could afford in October and moved in. I am starting all over from scratch, and the friends I had..well, I was banned from the forum, and will leave it at that. I still do have plans to pay forward what was given me when I am able.

Welcome aboard, Amyishere. Pipes, I approve! Best wishes for 2021 and looking forward to seeing what you think on this forum. Happy Hogmanay!

Cheers and be well.

I will have to remedy that asap and become a true blue fan. :)

Well, because you already paid the 35 thousand dollar DP initiation fee, I'd be willing to give you a gift, provided that you promise to spread the gospel of Brother Leon, which I can confidently assume will be the reaction once this DVD blows your hair back. :D
Just get at me on private messages.
 
Hi @Amyishere, welcome, nice to meet you!

Sorry bout my Sooners putting that ass whuppin' on your boys, Trippy. Hope we can still remain friends, LOL! BTW, When I was attending OK. U., I used to write Billy Sims's English comp papers for extra football tickets. ( The Switzer era ) I swear, every kid on those FB teams either drove a brand new Cutlass or a Buick Regal. Some great times back then. Better luck next year, my friend. Happy New Year to you and yours!
