2020 LJ Friending Frenzy

[lavenderfieldss]

I did this a couple years ago and was super suprised when I got almost 3 THOUSAND replies. @_@. I have some friends who want to come back to LJ but need more friends, so I figured i'd do it again and see if we can at least get them some more LJ friends, if not others, too!

Hi! I posted my own intro below... we're both parents in our 40s - would love to connect if you would? :)

[lisabella]

Yes, absolutely! I'll add you (if I can remember how)!

[keypike]

Awesome! Thanks - have added you :)

[nimnod]

Can I have a shot at putting up with you then? We have some things I common I think. My post's the 5th root-level comment if you'd like to check me out. =)

[lisabella]

Absolutely! The more friends, the merrier. :)

Hi! Mind if I add you? It seems we have a lot in common - my journal looks fairly empty at the moment but I am wanting to come back to LJ after a looooong hiatus

[lisabella]

I don't mind at all! I'll add ya back :)

[velvetechos]

Hi! So sorry to hear you're currently going through a depressive episode. I hope you will find yourslef in a lighter place again soon. Would you like to connect? Your intro could have been written by me pretty much heh. I'm also a SAHM, mom to one little girl (almost 2,5 yo) and 5 kittycats (there's also a husband in the picture lol but of course I'm not a mom to him;-)). Crawling out of a lenghty depressive episode myself.

[lisabella]

Yes, absolutely! Adding you now.

[christinafairy]

39 year old SAHM with similar interests and political views. Adding you.

[lisabella]

Added back!

[christinafairy]

Yay! Thanks!
