Non-clicky: How long have you been here?

Re: Non-clicky: How long have you been here?

  • I've been on the Knot since dec '02, after our wedding in sept '03.  I think I was on BOTB after I found out I was pregnant with Kaitlyn in October '03, don't remember when I switched over to Parenting.  Been on ever since.  I would say I lurk more than I post now.

     

    ETA: I don't think there is really anything interesting about me. :(

  • I started on the Knot when helping my BFF plan her wedding, and then got engaged myself shortly after, so 2002? After I got married, I abandoned The Nest, and came back when I was TTC. I ended up on BOTB, and then on Parenting after DS was born in 2006.

    I sleep really soundly. It almost scares me that I don't wake up when noises are going on around me. DH always hears the kids cry/wake up before I do.

  • I joined The Knot in 2003. Moved over to The Nest afterwards and was there when there was only one BOTB board ... it was a white screen and just a listing of threads going down the page. That was 2005/early 2006.

    Been around ever since, in one form or another.

  • Um...embarrassingly long? LOL!

    Member of the Knot since 1999. Posting since 2000. Yikes.  

    I've been on parenting since it started.

    Something interesting about me? I sang backup for Shania Twain on her '98 tour.

    emilie: we are less than 6 degrees.  We are 3 degrees.  Big Smile

    ETA: if I think about it, probably 2 degrees.

    promised myself I'd retire when I turned gold, and yet here I am
  • I joined the Knot (Advice for Brides, I think was the name of the board I was on) in 2004.

    I got booted over to The Nest after getting married and didn't post too much until I migrated over to BOTB (it was much less crazy back then) when we were TTC in 2006. I stayed there until DD#1 was maybe a year or so and then moved over to Parenting.

    Hmm, something interesting...I live 85 miles from the nearest Target. I guess that's more sad than interesting. :P

    Mom to DD#1 December '06, DD#2 Feb '09 and DS March '12
  • The Knot in '04 I think, moved to the Nest in '05, Parenting since '06 maybe '07.

    I don't think I'm really interesting but here are some random facts...never smoked pot (or any drug actually) people seem to find that weird for some reason, I love death metal music and that's odd only because I'm black and I've never met another black person who liked hardcore metal music like me lol. When people find this out about me they seem really confused and very shocked.

    Share something interesting about yourself. I found out when I was 18 that my dad isn't my biological dad, very few people know that, not sure if my moms family even knows. I don't know the slightest thing about my biological dad and my dad found out when I was 12 that I wasn't his. How's that for interesting?!

    WOW - that is pretty major! How did you find that out???

    My parents sat me down a couple weeks after I graduated from HS and told me. Thankfully my BF (now DH) was with me or I would have lost it completely. After they told me I left, I didn't come home until 3 in the morning, I was so upset. My dad and I are super close and it broke my heart to think I wasn't biologically his. We told my sister like 6 months later when my parents were getting divorced.

     ETA: My parents were HS sweethearts, broke up when my dad moved from MN to TX, when my mom found out she was pregnant, she moved to TX, hid the pregnancy from my dad, then he found out, kicked her out for lying, etc., so she went to live with a mutual friend, my dad came to the hospital when I was born and as he says "Fell in love" with me and wasn't leaving. I don't know if my bio-dad even knows she was pregnant, he was from the same small town my parents were from and a grade below my mom and dad. I have no desire to even try and find him.

    I don't understand?  You said originally your dad didn't find out you weren't his until you were 12.  But he knew when he saw you in the hospital?  Or did I misread that?   

  • I started on the knot in 2003 when we got engaged.  Wow!  8 years!  I got pregnant 3 months after we were married, so I went on BOTB, which switched over to the nest.

    I came on Parenting after ML was born in 2006, then I left for a couple of years to be on an alternate board (came on here once in a while), then took a break from all boards around the end of 2008.  I came back about a year ago, maybe?
