I'm 56, live in Nottinghamshire UK, Used to be a cake decorator, have dabbled in a bit of oil painting,I'm not that good though I chose another name, it's more fitting for news years day!!!....plus the name maisie sounds too young for me, and I got sick of denise m too..lol Sorry if I keep confusing my contacts!! Edit: 14th jan 08....I have opened up my Q/A for everyone to view so people who think I may be a threat(lol) will be able to track my every move and see all my Q/A, and if they still want to block me for other reasons it's ok, I do understand how confusing it is to know how to see who can be trusted or not, but I am getting to the point I just want people to know who I am, I also understand I must have caused confusion to some in changing my avatar and my name through me being bored seeing the ones I have chosen in the past....so please feel free to look through my Q/A...♥x

1 AnswerMobile Phones & Plans1 decade agoHas this happened to anyone else?
I have'nt been comming on Y/A for about 5 days due to being ill, but I have just realised that 3 of my new contacts (initiated by them) have dissapeared now from my profile page, could anyone let me know how this could happen if they diddn't delete me themselves, which I don't think they did, because like I said they were the ones that added me and I gladly added them to mine, thats why I'm confussed that they have dissapeared
17 AnswersSenior Citizens1 decade agoYour choice of ?

20 AnswersSenior Citizens1 decade agoMisunderstood !!!?
I was just thinking about past Christmas's and pondering on the parties etc,(not that I went to many though) and I had to chuckle about the time I went to a new years eve party and was told everyone HAD to wear fancy dress, so I got me a lovely outfit, I was going as a 1920's Flapper, it was a very cute dress, I was slim then..... I heard my Son chatting to friends on his phone, the conversation went..."Ye, we've all got our outfits...and guess what, my Mum is going as a SLAPPER" ..... omg.... I nearly died laughing......after a very speedy explanation to my Son
So, my question is, have you experienced someone misunderstand what word you used that turned out to funny

Do Meditation, I'm not just talking about "zen monk" type of meditation, just the sort of quiet time, closing eyes and let your mind relax and take you to where it wants too, I have found it really helps to do this, it gives the mind a break and is so relaxing, but the most wonderful thing happened to me in one of my little session's in that I must have gone a little deeper than usual because I found myself on a beautiful beach, I sat at the waters edge listening to the waves, and then out of knowhere came this stunning white Lippizaner Horse, cantering in slow motion along the shoreline, it took my breath away, he stopped near to me, I threw my arms around his neck, and knelt down so I could get on his back, he just gently walked the waters edge, I was in heaven......it came time for him to go, I put my arms around him again and it felt like he was telling me he would come back......I opened my eyes from this meditation and I was sobbing with sheer delight......it was so good

5 AnswersOther - Computers1 decade agoWho else is sick of ? (and to all the..."wheres the question" brigade, go back to the first few words of this)
All the petiness thats comming from "other" sources.... I know it sounds like I am over reacting....but, when I first came across the Senior section it was when I was just about to stop comming on Y/A altogether because I was sick of encountering a lot of stupid and sick individuals, I got to realise I just did not want to be subjected to that sort of thing, I firmly believe being involved in so much negativity is so bad for anyone, so I was'nt going to put up with it no longer....and like I said, I found the Seniors, I was so pleased, because there was so many lovely people on this..... but now all the patheticness of other users comming over and aiming their childish spite has spoilt it....our life can be stressful enough with all the things we have to deal with in our Day to Day life without adding to it by comming on here to put up with more....I am a very sensitive person, can't help it, it's the way I am, I hate being misunderstood, and that happens on here with just .........

After rereading Diamond's question about "Receptionist's", It got me thinking about the word "Patient"...do you think that word was chosen by whoever to deliberately try to instill in to our minds thats how we should be....lets face it, how many of us certainly feel IMPATIENT when we visit Doctors, Dentists etc.....wonder how many other words out there that means the total opposite.......
Oh, I am officially a witch now with looks of it.....my avatar has stayed the same on every page all morning....LOL

A word or phrase that is a term of affection where you come from....I did many years ago when on my first visit to meet my boyfriends family for the first time in Dorset, he had the cutest little sister, I said to her "hello my little duck"....duck is a very much used word where I come from amongst friends...she was only 4 and ran crying to her Mum saying "she just called me a duck" and felt insulted...I didn't make a good impression on her LOL

Rabbit, No No...way too cute.....I have no problem eating Pig, Cow, Chicken, and yet even those are cute when babies.... strange isn't it
Does anyone else not eat them for this silly reason ?

I have always loved the thought of living in Canada, when I was first married to my late husband 39 yrs ago, we came close to moving there, but my husband changed his mind, I was so disapointed, I know were not to dwell on "what if's" but I can't help wondering if I would have had a better life out there....even if it would have been only the fact snow was guarenteed on Christmas Day...I love Christmas too...lol
