    Welcome! I also have had MFP for a long time but I had it on my phone and didn't think much about adding friends. This is the first time I come on the website and so far I see that the people are really nice and I just love it. I have no idea why I didn't get on earlier. but I am here now and ready to make friends. Any can add me. I welcome with open arms. Oh yeah I almost forgot. My name is Ashlee, I am 19 and I hope that we can help each other reach our goals!
