<----shut up...lollololollolol - love ya. It's been a long road but I am happy. THere are some that have been typing back at me for years now. They have seen, read, and tried to help me through when things were the darkest. Been by their keyboards when I was in need..some I have met face to face - others - i have no clue who you are. You could be standing beside me now and I would not know it. Like waves across the ocean, some have gotten close, then moved on...but many of you , my fellow 4042.ers have played an important role in my life.. and I wish to thank each of you! no.... I am not dying, or moving.. just sentimental..Wanted you folks to know how important you are! THank you! oh yeah and to the ones who don't like me.. you can kiss my Irish, ex-yankee-ish, behind....LOL!!!! sentimental moment is over now...please return to normal beotching mode.... thank you .
Female, married, 4 kids(one is grown and out of home) other 3 are all teens. I have 6 dogs ,(ok ya but 4 are under 10 lbs so alone they don't count as an entire dog ) hehe that's what I tell myself anyway, 1 hamster, 1 guinea pig, 2 frogs , my user name is that my hubby calls me, and the current avatar is my chi/fox terrier mix "willie"

First post! I am a 42 y.o. male and have been married for over 20 years! I relocated with my company to Raleigh and moved to the Cleveland community last summer. I have a 19 y.o. son in colege @ WCU and a 17 y.o. daughter in her junior year @ WJHS. As for my avatar, I'm a Simpsons fan and I think ths is what I would look like as a Simpsons character. My username is a reference to my job, as I work for the power company. (Don't ask which one, there is only one.) :-D

I am a 58 yo female, with 3 grown children and 4 grandchildren. My beloved husband recently died. I have never done this before so you won't see an avatar until I get someone to show me how that is done. I like reading what other's say and think, so you may have noticed me around just reading. My name on here is my dog's name. I had tried using several other names and they were already taken. I have 3 dogs, 1 cat and a koi pond.
Welcome aboard! You'll find this board a great source of information - whatever you want to know about the area, somebody here is bound to have the answers. Join in the conversations, just remember never to take anything personally! It's all just words on a screen, to borrow an expression from Cleopatra.
Thank you KDsGrandma Thanks, I have been reading a lot of the posts here and have found them helpful and interesting. There seems to be a lot of good people on this site. Thanks again.
