Yes, I know what you mean, face to face is still a lovely way to meet-up with people. Keep an eye on the Queenager Substack, Iām sure they will expand to other regions, and if you offer to host in your area that could speed up the process. š š
Well, a "nooner" takes on a whole new meaning here! I had to Google skin-up---aha. My mind went to the greenhouse gutter, picturing the above-mentioned surreptitious nooner. It made sense to me! Who knew it was "to make a cigarette containing marijuana"? Can I get technical here? Does this mean that the 'joint' is made to appear like a cigarette and not like an actual rolled joint? Thanks for the new word!
āThe jointā doesnāt exactly look like a rolled up cigarette, as usually more than 1 ciggy paper is used, so you invariably get a slight cone with a twisty endā¦ or so Iāve heard.
I've been stalking Queenagers and Noon since Eleanor set it up. So great to realize how valuable it was. It's like in any life stage its helpful to be a community of women who share in the experience. There's so much of this in motherhood but if you don't have children or you're no longer a young mum what was there before? WI? It's not like you stop dreaming and achieving. Love the humour and warmth in this piece.
Thank you so much Amy, itās a lovely group, Iām sure their door will be open if you decide to join them in the future, keep watching this space. šš
Love how something online created something tangible offline. This is a perfect example of how we can use our digital space for true connection. Very cool! Can't wait to hear more about it!
What a great idea - blogging has given me a Midlife community, but I'd also love to find something like this IRL - and I also love that it wasn't one of those ridiculously expensive "experiences" but just a meeting of like-minded women. Just fantastic!
I think the ābeing in a state of transitionā is more important than your age, but keep an eye on the Queenager, you might want āinā in a few years time. šš

Okay, wink-wink. I thought, why go to all the effort of rolling something to look like a cigarette when the first puff is going to give you away?

Would you describe yourself as a Queenager? Yes. I'll be 53 next month.
Would you attend a Noon Circle if there was one near you? I would if there were any in the U.S.
Have you ever sacrificed a goat? LOL. Glad to say I haven't.
Queenager... Yes! Yes! Yes. Would love to attend.. Sounds right up my palace... š

Yes, I think because it was so local to many of us it really fuelled the 'why not just give it a go' thought process. š
Sounds like a beautiful meeting of like minded magical Queenagers!
It really was. š„°

Sounds brilliant! Though as a mere slip of a 47 year old Iād be far too young to be admitted š¤£

Huzzah. What a great way to connect with other Queenagers. Thats going to be my new gender affiliation.
Not sure itās the official greeting, what on earth have I started! šš
I love Huzzah. Itās also the mantra of Alisa Kennedy Jones.
Excellent answers, and Happy Birthday in advance for next month! š„³
