Well, as today is day 100 of logging into MFP for me, I guess its occurred to me that I'm going to be here for the long run.

When I chose my screen name, I didn't really know too much about the community aspect of MFP, or how much I'd really enjoy logging in and seeing how you fine folks are doing every day.
As such, I just wanted to say 'Hi, I'm Jenni'. Feel free to call me BigChangeNeeded, or BCN, or whatever, but if I'm going to be staying a while, I thought I'd share my real name. :smile:

    PS - I keep forgetting to ask. Is your photo a sugar glider in a box of biscuits? :)

    I am Laura,
    If you want to you can change your username in the main settings but site only allows you to change it once.
    I do tend to think of you as a possum in a box of sweet pastries, I think of everyone as whatever the pictures are no matter how little sense that makes. I think that might be to do with my aspie brain. Clearly Kathy is not a glass jar of white stuff either.

    My name is Peg. My picture is me from 5 years ago, at a class reunion. I have another reunion this year, and I'm almost back down to that weight.

    Lisa here. Nice to meet you all. I remember everyone as their profile pic too. :) Laughing at my own at the thought.

    Nice to meet you all :smile:

    Yes, my pic is a possum in a box of pastries. There was a news story a couple of years ago (from Australia, I think) about a possum who broke into a shop, and then binged so hard on cakes that it couldn't even run away when the shop staff turned up for work. I saw the picture and thought 'That's me', ha ha.

    I'm not ready to change my picture yet, hell, I don't really have many pictures of me (I run as soon as I see a camera!), although I'm sure that I will do eventually.

    My name is Birgit. Sounds like "get beer," in reverse.
