I went to an ostomy support group (coffee and rolls, interesting speakers, fun) where I met a woman called Linda - same name as mine - who invited me to her “Linda Club” of ladies named Linda who get together to socialize. Well, I don’t know what the odds are but it turns out that there are three of us Lindas who are ostomates in that club! Today the three of us met for lunch.

I love the smell of coffee in the morning. It smells like .... victory.

Sounds like the Linda Club needs to buy a lottery ticket! 🤣

Oh, that's delightful! Always great to make new friends!

At my workplace we have three women called Rianne, which can sometimes be very confusing!

I love the idea of a Linda club! I'm always curious what second names are when I meet a new Linda & to this day I have to ask their middle name. When I met my brothers girlfriend, also a Linda, we compared middle names & as it turns out we were both "Linda Louise".  

In high school there were 3 Lindas in my group of friends & we often ate lunch together.  It was pretty fun!  

The only draw back of having two Lindas in my family was it took a while to figure out which Linda was being spoken to. Some of my siblings resorted to calling us by our initials,  I became LK. 

I hope you can meet with your group often & really enjoy your new club!

Linda, I am so happy to hear you have found a nice local support group and it is hilarious that there are 3 Lindas. That is something that never happens to me. 🤣

Speaking of Lindas, LK, I heard our wildfire crossed over into Canada and it sounds like it was in your vicinity. I hope you are all okay and didn’t have to evacuate.
