Hi, My name is Peggy. I am not really new here but it has been a long time and many months of heartbreak since being here last.
I lost my husband of 38 years in April, after 4 months in hospital. I won't go into all the things I am going through trying to dissolve a business, dealing with step-children, and trying to settle his personal estate and finding money to pay for a 200.00 hr. lawyer. So I am choosing to try even harder to get good at my passion, photography. I just got a 6d, haven't used it yet, waiting on getting a 70-200. Got a 50mm 1.4 when I got camera. I am looking forward to learning from all the great photographer's on UHH. Please be patient you are dealing with a woman (blonde) who spent 30 minutes trying to get into a car that wasn't mine the other day. Same color, same kind. LOL

I did the car thing the other day at Costco but there was still someone in the car- scared the hell out of both of us!

I have been running a convenience store for years and that happens often, sorry to hear about your loss. Everyone on this forum seems to be friendly and helpful, maybe sometimes sarcastic. I have been on for about a week and have got great advice and been given links to more helpful information.

Hello Peggy, very sorry to hear of your loss. About the car thing, you need to do what I do, choose one that is unlocked and then sit there perplexed wondering why the key will not work in the ignition. Oh, welcome to UHH. :thumbup:

Wwelcome Peggy. Your introduction really says a lot about you. An honest amount of 'This is what's happening '..and then followed by a genuinely amusing story! Love your moxie. I pray that verything negative resolves for you quickly, and you can mourn in peace-then get on with all of your passions!
