My mother always told me I had a bit of a mean streak. 
(In my defense , I have a LOT of red in my hair.)
Hi there, and welcome.
I’m a northerner, but on the other side of Canada, just south of the Alaskan panhandle.
We’ve had warmer than normal temps here lately (for us it’s warm!), and we’re loving it!
Lots of great people here.
Enjoy.
