New here..( in Clarksville)

Scott, You know what I want from you! A name!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry, My lips are sealed! 

Hi!! I read your whole profile story and looked at the pictures.  Thanks so much for sharing your whole experience.  You look so fantastic!!! It is very encouraging to read other peoples entire experience and follow their progress.  Hopefully I will get approved and be able to share with others too.  Thank you! :-) Lisa

Well, you guys sure know how to make me feel really welcome! thanks!! I did know about the monthly support meetings here at the local hospital, but due to travel and vacations, haven't been able to make it...YET! But, soon in July hopefully. Germany is a big transition to Tennessee, but I love it! There is a Target..and Chick-fil-A! What else could one need? Never heard of round doorknobs.. :> Looking forward to hearing about luncheon info...We made a trip 2 wks ago to Murfreesboro....so i was somewhat in that area of town..) And thanks to everyone for the comments and encouraging words!!! Yipee..Nice people..alas.. :>

There is a meeting there in Clarksville on June 25th. If I don't get to meet you then, I'll look forward to meeting you in July. "We" were stationed in Germany twice. The first time was 1956 - 1960 and the second time was 1964 - 1966. Then I was in Italy with my husband from 1975 - 1978.  The round doorknob reference was...all the door handles in europe were the flat, lever type and (at that time) all the doorknobs stateside were the round type. Now, of course, you see more and more of the lever type door handle here in the states. When someone would say they were going back to "the land of the round doorknobs" that meant they were rotating back to the states. That was just one of those old "Army brat" references I guess. I remember getting excited when I found Twinkies in the freezer case of our commissary in Italy! My friend who was shopping with me told me I had been there too long.  We also got excited when we found aluminum foil, paper towels and Downey fabric softener. Ah, Army life!!

A big ole welcome from one Clarksvillian to another!  I mostly stay on the main message board but do come here ocassionally.  Everyone seems nice here; not sure why I don't come more often.  Will try to commit to do that.  You have done a great job with your "tool".

Welcome to Clarksville. I also live here. Feel free to email me at [email protected] if you need help with anything. Prayers and hugs, Sandi
