I noticed on Terry's Vlog they come up with General facts about yourself here are a few about me. what about you? 1. I worked in a factory for 20 years, had to leave with Neck Injury. 2. had a 10 lb. baby girl, who is 5'1", then a premature baby boy who is now 6'2"  3. I hate sports but go to approx. 5 Red Sox games a year. 4.  I've had a gentleman with Down Syndrome live with me for 2 1/2 years. (my JOb) he works all day and I stay home. 5.  I'm the baby of the family (can't you tell?)

 Love the idea. 1.Grew up on 130 acres of land needless to say we had tons of room for our imaginations to grow. 2. At the age of 2 1/2 I was attacked by a rooster grrrr!!!! So I am quite scared of flapping wings. 3.Went to U S M as a music major but left after 2 years and attended Western Iowa Tech for Band Instrument Repair. 4.After completing my schooling got a job at Al Corey Music Center where I worked until just before my daughter was born. 5. Two c sections later and I am blessed with 2 wonderful beautiful little treasures. Talya almost 11 and Timmy just 5 eec6.jpg Talya&Tim picture by Talyasmom Had to put this pic on This was the day Timmy was born. Talya was the only one that held him with him quiet . All the other pics of family holding him he was screaming.This is my favorite pic of them.

I LOVE that picture Kathy!  They are so cute!!!! I'll give this a try...but I'm not that interesting.......... 1. I have 3 kids, all born by c-section (my daughter was my little miracle as she was not breathing when she was born........man does she have lungs on her now!!!!!!!) 2.  I met my husband on line (he was living in WA state and I was in Maine!) 3.  I am step-mom to 4 adult children and step-grandmom to 2 kiddos! (I am NOT old enough to be their mother...my DH is older than I am!!!!!!!) 4.  I love the Red Sox....even when they lose!!!!

5.  I was the baby of my family for 12 years......until my sister was born! Now I am the typical "forgotten" middle child! That was interesting!!!!!!! Thanks Cheryl!

Yup!  Next week is my last week out of work!  I am NOT excited to go back either!  I'm kinda enjoying this being home thingy!  Gotta go make some $$ though!  DH and the boys are gone for the weekend (Scout camping) so Lauren and I are probably going shopping Saturday...she still has some birthday $ she wants to spend!  If you wanna come, let me know!

I'm game, let's see... 1. I was adopted at age 6 months... 2. Found my birth parents when I was 27-my bio mom was 20 miles away in So. Portland my whole life( I grew up in Westbrook) 3.Loved animals of all kinds and wanted to be a vet from age 8-dreams dashed when I couldn't pass organic chemistry at Orono...but 4. Met my DH, the love of my life at Orono, 37 years ago, our 35th anniversary is June 30. 5. Was a foster parent to 5 teens...all who still stay in touch, esp on Mother's Day.() 6. I was a swimmer in H.S. and still love the water more than land...

It was magic when she realized who she had become...

Let's see.  My dad passed away when I was 8 and it was just me and my mom so we are like best friends.  We backpacked across Europe for 3 months after his death and we went to practically every country there.  Wish I was older so I could have appreciated it more.  I went to Syracuse University and studied in London for a year during college where I got my degree in advertising.  I moved down south for 6 years (charleston and clearwater FL) and then realized I missed Maine and everyone here so I moved back.  Met my hubby in SC so he's a transplant.  We were together for 6 years before we got married and will celebrate our 6th year wedding anniversary in July.  And of course I have 13 month old twins.  My hubby has no family (he has been estranged from them by choice since he was 15 and his grandmother passed away.  I have no brothers or sisters so our babies have a grammie and that's it.  No chance for official aunts and uncles and cousins, but we make up for it with our friends being aunts and uncles. I like to go fishing, I used to like riding our 4 wheeler when I was smaller (so maybe I will like it again soon), love shopping, going to the movies and iced coffee :)
