I am very happy that everything is going well. Based on my experience radio silence means acceptance.
My memory from your lost blog that Allie was not going to be your new name and that you did not want to mention it until you told your family. So, since you told them. What is your new name?
Ellen
Correct Ellen - it's not.
But "Allie" has carried me a long way, and part of me thinks it might make sense to keep things a bit close to the vest.
It's not a lack of trust in folks here, but there's too much going on with lurkers and what not and people who come looking for info with the express purpose of doing harm with it.
Some people here do my new name, but heck even those took a while to adjust having been so used to Allie 😂. So I think we'll just leave well enough alone for now.
Emphasis on "for now" though - if my wife and I have learned anything this week is that reality can shift about as quickly as the sand beneath your feet. So who knows what tomorrow brings?
Sorry for the convoluted answer to a simple question - but I didn't want it to appear that I'm not sharing because I don't trust people here. Not that at all.
