Those two things mean the most to me in the world.
how did i miss this thread, too? Ummm, I dunno cause I posted it on Monday like I always do...lol
where online did you and your DH meet? A website called lovebynet.com I wasn't going there looking for love, a personal friend of mine had mentioned this website after I had just went through my divorce, I went there looking for general chat and I met alot of nice ladies and we chatted on there together everyday, a group of us. I met him by accident. He keep chatting with me and I kept ignoring him. When I left that chatroom that night, I told him I didn't do chatrooms and would never be back in there again so if he wanted we could chat on yahoo messenger, I gave him my name on there and days later, he sent me a message, weeks later he drove to Ohio, where I lived and met me in person. We've been together ever since and I STILL have NOT gone back into that chatroom...lol
where did you move from? Ohio
what do you think you'd be doing if you didn't have kids? I probably would've finished high school and went on to be something in life, not that I'm not proud of being a fulltime SAHM, but I think that's what I would've done. If I had it all to do over again, I would do it all the same, just because I have 6 beautiful kids and a DH I love with all my heart, and had I changed anything in my life, I may not have what I do now, or be as happy as I am.
when are you going to add MN to the list of places visited? Hmmm? I'll havta check into that...lol
