    I was one of the oldies on Squidoo and the change over to HubPages happened at the same time as a major event in my life that required most of my last year so I've been very sloooow in becoming active here. In fact today is the first time I've spent more than an hour rectifying lacks on a bunch of former lenses to bring them up to speed for this venue. And yes, I did swallow some embarrassment over some of my lenses, as if seeing them for the first time, and wondering "did I really write that?" I'm happy to be here, miss regular contact with many others "over there" and look forward to connecting with this outstanding team of writers. Although it may be a bit before I begin contributing regularly I'll be eager to begin again after the big move takes place.

    I especially like the clean look of the HUBs and hope to learn from all the experts here.

    Leslie

        Thanks, I'm slowly making some corrections to the old lenses, but emphasis on the slow.

    Hi, nice to meet you here on Hubpages. I too moved all my lenses here but on a separate account because I had already joined HB on this account. I'm somewhat of a slow writer, hope to read your hubs!

      Thanks! My lenses were transferred over what seems like eons ago. In touching up or deleting them I've found some I'd forgotten about. Whew!

      The other day when I posted my first message, below, I lumped everyone together because my tired eye failed to notice the tiny reply link. I looked everywhere but the right place to find it. lol!

    Hi RonElFran (I look forward to growing here), Kathleen, DaveOnline (what was your lens moniker?), Uzochukwu Mike (thanks and I'll be taking some time to get my hubs sorted out and learning the ways), peach purple (sounds like a welcome place), Shades-of-truth (thanks for the memories), tillsontitan (you look familiar), tirelesstraveler (I sure look forward to meeting all kinds of writers), aminebombom (thanks, I signed up last Summer but am only now beginning to clean up those missing links and such), snakes mum (nice to hear from you too). Now I've been on for two days out of two, so maybe I'll find some regular time to poke around here.
