Hi ladies. My name is Rae Marie and I am new to these boards. I used to hang out on the aol boards but they have fizzled out since I was last able to visit, 3 years ago. I am now looking for some new places to hang out and some new friends. This seems like an active board and the posts so far seem friendly. I am a wife of 14 yrs to a corrections officer at a local prison. Together we have 2 wonderful children, an almost 8 yr old daughter (who thinks she is 18) and a 9 month old son. The spacing was not our plan but apparently it was Gods. My husband works with the teens at church and I work with the preschoolers. I also enjoy scrapbooking but rarely have time for it even though I have a room dedicated to the art in my home. I am currently a breakfast manager at McDonalds, but am looking for something else. So far I just can't beat their hours for my family. I look forward to posting with all of you and getting to know you.

Yay, another new friend!! Welcome Rae, it's nice to meet you!!


I have a neighbor lady friend across the street named Rae too and I'll think of her every time I see you here. That's good too for I like her a lot!


You sound very busy, typical for women! Your children are both at fun ages. The oldest must think the youngest is a baby doll to play with.


I am a grandma..four grandloves, 11, 8, 7 & almost 6 year olds..so fun! The two oldest, brother & sister of my DD2 & her hubby, moved to Cincinnati, OH

Hi Rae, I'm LuAnn (see my profile for more info on me). YEAH! Another hoosier! I was born in Anderson, Indiana, but lived in Alexandria. My parents moved to Fla. when I was 6 months old but I spent many school summers in Indiana with my grandparents, cousins, aunts n' uncles.


Don't we have the best corn and tomatoes there? And do you remember "cracklins?" I loved those. I have not been back since my grandparents passed because the family acted very cold and distant. That stung a bit. :(


Anyways', just want to welcome you to the sand box. 'J-man' is our resident hottie. Ha! Bet I got him to blush....tee-hee-hee.

It was during your MIA time away from the Sandbox that I was posting that photo siggy. I didn't think of that when you began posting again. Glad you got to see it

Ah, I may live in Indiana but I am not hoosier, I assure you. LOL My heart resides in Milwaukee Wisconsin. LOL I may be heading there this weekend for some loooooooooooooooong overdue R&R. I used to spend several weeks each summer down in Evansville and lived in Indy for 5 yrs as an adult. Now I am back to NW Indiana, Gary is just about 40 minutes down the road. No real farming around here so no good corn or matos anymore :(
