Hi,


I joined Ivillage yesterday and am looking for a place to "hang my hat"! This looks like a great board.


A little about me. I've been happily married for 27 years, have a 22-year old son and a sweet furbaby (dog.)


I enjoy cross-stitch, cooking, genealogy and talking...and talking...and talking


Michelle

Well hello there Michelle, let me have the honor of being the first to welcome you to the sandbox. I will introduce myself, My name is Duane I am 31 years old, have been married for 11 years and have one beautiful son who will be 3 on the 25th of this month.
I will have to say that I am THE resident male on this board and you will see post quite often. I try to keep these wonderful ladies around here on their toes, so you never know what to expect from me.
I will say however that it is very nice to meet you and I look forward to getting to know you a bit better. SO WELCOME ABOARD!!!

Hi Michele, it's nice to meet you!! So you like to talk..and talk..and talk..huh? Well, you've come to the right place honey!! LOL!!


We love meeting new friends and hope to see a lot of you here.


I saw in your profile that you'd like to learn to speak Italian. If you don't mind my asking..just being nosey..why did you choose Italian? Any special reason?


What area of the US are you from..north, south, east or west? Are the leaves changing where you live?


I am 64 years young..you know you're old when you start using the term "young" attached to your age..LOL..and have two married daughters and four perfect grandloves. I just got remarried this past June...3rd marriage for both of us and both divorced the 1st and the 2nd ended in death of spouse. I'm loving being married again after being widowed 11 years!


Enjoy your autumn day!

I thought I would be back earlier, but I love finding so many responses!


Duane and Cin-Cin- Thank You! I hope to be here regularly!


Donna-I love learning about my ancestors through food, but it seems only fitting that I learn at least one of their languages. I am part Russian/Italian/Puerto Rican/French and English so I chose Italian...don't think Russian will ever happen!LOL I'm near Savannah Ga so the leaves are changing, but it's still hot enough to run the air.


Fran- I have Two Little Girls in Blue waiting to be read as soon as I finish the Debbie Macomber I'm on!


Ivhugs- My dog is part chow/dalmation/basset hound, but looks like a small lab!


Rusty- I'm really stuck on one ancestor that came to the states before 1740. He changed his last name to what is my maiden name, but we can't find from what, where he was from or anything else about him. I'm convince he was running from something and my Dh says you know there was a woman involved!!LOL


I know I'm going to love it here.
