Hi. I'm Angie, I am not only new here, but I am new to message boards in general. I am self diagnosed Aspie. I want to keep that out of my medical record though.
I like plants. I work in a greenhouse, and am getting a degree in Floriculture. Some day I want to have my own greenhouse and grow and sell medicinal plants as well as food plants. I want to sell some online and some at the farmer's market.
I also want to make medicines as well as aromatherapy oils, incense, and shampoo, lotion, and such.
I am a single parent with two boys. I found out about my Aspergian nature when my older son was diagnosed when he was 6. I wonder about my younger son having it because he's got a sprinkling of symptoms but doesn't seem to be quite like his brother and I. I also wonder if my mom had it looking back at some of her ways.
I joined this forum to have friends who 'get me' because it's been hard to find friends worth having.
I am going to create a profile when the site lets me so you know more about me and maybe I can post a pic too.
'Til then..
Angie
 
Hi Angie, welcome to AC!

You'll be able to create a profile when you have two more posts approved by a moderator (this is to filter out trolls and spammers).
 
Hi Angie! Welcome. I'm new too. I hope this place is as good for you as it has been for me. Welcome!
 
Welcome to the forums. You should be able to fill out your profile and upload photos now. You only need to make one post, not three like it used to be.
 
Hi Angie/earthsteward70. It is good to see a steward of the earth here. In what way are you an earth steward? One of my special focus topics is native plants, and I know a few people in Ilinois who are similarly obsessed. What about you?
 
I truly strive to be a steward of the earth. I'm part of the environmental-sustainability club at school, I love and respect all plants down to the weeds. I refused to mow my back yard this week because I found a weed that I hadn't Identified LOL! I had to make sure it wasn't medicinal, food, etc. first. :lol: I do want to have a greenhouse of native ornamentals, food especially heirloom and organic variety, and medicinal plants. (only the legal ones, the others in my class tease me about growing marijuana) Yes I feel obsessed about plants. I can't walk across campus without stopping to see and examine the plants in the turf.
