The Definition of Welshing

So my father-in-law informed me last night that we needed to change the name of our blog right away. Much to my chagrin, he shared that Welshing is a verb with derogatory meaning. Webster's Dictionary defines the verb to welsh or welshing as follows:

welsh intransitive verb \ˈwelsh, ˈwelch\

1 sometimes offensive : to avoid payment —used with on
2 sometimes offensive : to break one's word : renege
welsh·er noun, sometimes offensive


BUT, we So-Cal Welshes have decided to define it differently!!! To Welsh or to be Welshing is for Andre and I to fully embrace our marriage to one another, to become a family unit of two (plus our fish), and to experience all of life's adventures, good and bad, together as partners.

I am love being a Welsh but I'm still a Greene too. My middle name is legally Greene and I will always be partly a Greene because I was born into my wonderful family. I enjoyed Greeneing around for 30 years but it's onto new adventures now as a proud Welsh!
