***NEWBIE ALERT *** (Please don't tease me if I'm posting wrong)

You would think after 25 YEARS of friendship, @mattclarke would bypass the "Go in to the City and get a selfie... blah blah blah" in order to receive his very generous and limited gift of 500 SP. I still don't know what 500 SP is exactly, but it "steemed" like an offer too good to pass up. But no! No shortcuts for me. And it proves what a fair and decent guy he is, I suppose – YAWN!

I have been observing @mattclarke for a while now with his steemit adventures. Actually, I guess it stemmed back from his bitcoin days which caught my attention, and I gotta say, this guy knows his shit! To me, Matt was/is ‘that guy’ who would pull out some big word during a conversation which I would pretended I knew the meaning to. And I would convince him I understood the definition with a polite smile and nod of the head. So, what I’m saying is Matt to me, has always been known for his superior intelligence and having his finger on the pulse. So even though I have close to ZERO idea what Steemit is (and bitcoin for that matter) I trust that @mattclarke wouldn’t advise me to climb a massive Christmas tree in the centre of Adelaide in order to find the presents he left for a few lucky ones. Did he make you climb the tree also? Thank you Matty for introducing me to this very foreign world of upvoting and steem power n shit. Two thumbs up Brother! Or in this case, two upvotings up 😊

Anyway, I'm Kristie Lee. Hi. I'm the new kid on the block. I’m 40, even though my profile CHOOSES to believe I’m 25 (and hey, that’s OK!!) I am a Fibre Artist from Adelaide in South Australia. Fibre Artist? What’s that? I will write about it one day. I own my own business and I am excited about this new world of interaction. I will feel my way through Steemit like the rest of you have, or will.

I had read very little about Steemit prior to signing up, in fact the catalyst for me handing over my email address and phone number was, I was mostly drawn to being introduced to a platform where I could openly share my beliefs, thoughts and correct opinions on subjects which are close to my heart like love, compassion, mindfulness, personal development, art and creativity in an environment for emotionally mature people. I am also excited to share the many facets of myself, which make me, ME! My Blogs may not be daily, but when they come they will be full of passion and truth revealing the true essence of who I am. I will delve in to subjects which peak my interest such as sex, energy patterns, relationships, psychology, spiritual growth and philosophy (and art, as mentioned previously). I am looking forward to making friends more than money here. I genuinely hope to meet some like-minded soul Brothers and Sisters to connect with who are conscious about their existence here on earth. Much love and peace to you all.
