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!

I would love to add you. I am also passionate about climate change and becoming more anti capitalist the older I get! I am a 39 year old SAHM in London. Friends?

Oh and I would add start the watercolours before the baby arrives. :) Afterwards will be different. I used to be a painter and am waiting to get back into it again!

[pineapple_sour]

Sure thing! And thanks for the advice about starting now... that's what I've been figuring I need to do. Now if only I felt like I had the time to do it...
