I am currently unemployed, looking for a job is a full time job. I am going to school for Accounting, will graduate with a BA in Dec 2015.I ha GPA of 3.0. I am very proud of that, at my age!!.

I am a wedding coordinator at our church. I love to scrapbook, and I am currently making homemade Christmas cards.

Hummingbirds are precious. I love horses. But do like dogs and cats, do bot have any animals, we are on the go too much to have an animal.

Okay, really all I do is plan my meals and work out. I work at and elementary school and part time at a gym. Both my adult sons live with me, ones a bodybuilder and personal trainer. The other one has a drinking problem so I have something in common with both of them. (I'm sober now, but can still relate).

I had a house built 3 years ago on 28 acres and have some wild life too. Deer, raccoons, armadillos, possums. Love it.

I live in NW Pennsylvania( small rural town).My husband and I have been married 23 years, we have two daughters one will begin her third year of college and our youngest graduated high school in june and we be a college freshmen. As my name suggests, we are disney fans. We enjoy our trips to wdw. we also enjoy going to the ocean/ beach- which is quite a drive for us. My husband and I went for the first time to WDW on our honeymoon and we have been back many times since-its our family vacation spot.
I work full time for a county government human services agency. My husband works retail.
We also have three cats and a dog.
I enjoy crafts, but havent done much for a while.

How nice to get to know you! I've lived in Sscottsdale,AZ most of my life. I've been married 30 years and have 2 sons, 20 and 18. Both of them are moving out within the next month, so I'm staring at an empty nest. I work in marketing for a hospital. Previously I worked for the Phoenix Suns basketball team for 13 years. Loads of fun but my current job is very satisfying. I handle advertising, PR, web, employee communication, events, etc. I really enjoy my work!

I read when i have time -- current fiction faves are Nelson DeMille, Stuart Woods, and Jeffrey Archer. Nonfiction is usually something about healthcare or consumer behavior.. I LOVE to cook and bake and I make room for good food and wine in my daily calorie plan. (Oops... Not supposed to talk about that).

Travel is high on my list, too. We just returned from a trip to Scotland and England -- Anne, I've been to Belgium, too. In fact, we were in Brugge on Ascension Day and got to see the pageant. What an Incredible experience! Next on our list is Thailand in 2014.

Well, that's enough for now.

While I love my family, my 2 dogs are my sweethearts. I have a 5 yr old Chesapeake Bay Retriever and a 2 yr old hound mix/rescue mutt-- Chester and Shelby. They are my buddies.

Hi! I'm married, for 34 yrs, (oh! That makes me feel old) to a wonderful man. We live in central Scotland at the foot of the hills. I love hillwalking and walking. Sadly no kids, such is life. Our garden is a wee bit rough round the edges but the wildlife love it. I always have food out for the birds. We go abroad every year, this year is in a small village up the mountains in Spain. Which we drive too. Love reading, mainly fiction and especially murder mysteries. (makes hubby nervous) Enjoy the computer, all that information at your fingertips, phenominal!

My husband and I live with our 16 y.o. son in a small village in the north of Belgium.

Hi Anne! My youngest daughter and I are hoping to take a trip to Belgium in the next year or so. It seems to me that your country is lovely!
I'll have to wait until I get to a different computer to look at your garden pictures, but it sounds impressive. I'm afraid I have a brown thumb

I am happy married of 42 yrs. to the same wonderful man. we do have our ups and downs, but guess since we are from the older generation, we work through our problems together, instead of throwing in the towel. for the most part life is good. We live in a tiny older home on 40 acres of land. we used to have cattle, but my husband is disabled and could not work them anymore so we sold them. we have 4 dogs and 3 cats. We are in Northern Arkansas, so the hummingbirds are here now, love to watch them, as well. The deer is so think here, we try everything but shooting them, to keep them away, they eat off every flower bud , my husband gets so mad, he goes out and treathens them and shoots the gun off in the air, lol. I tell him they are just stopping by for something sweet to eat. We have lots of wild animals, deer, squirrel, rabbit, skunk, opossums, cycotes, foxes, mountain lions, bobcats, snakes, you name it we have most of them, lol. I do love to live in the country, just would like to have more time to enjoy it and play with my dogs outside. I work full time 42 or more hours per week, live some distance to my job, it's a hour drive each way. I do Home Care for the Elderly. Not a bad job, but it does get boring, sometime I am just there watching them sleep, lol. We do some traveling abroad about every 2 years, Our son is in the AirForce and he stays mostly in Europe, He married a European girl, very lovely and sweet, speaks great English as well as other languages, they have been in Italy for 4 years now, over the past 15 years we have been overseas 4 times. They have 2 boys 6 and 2. which my grandsons have never been to the good old U.S. A. I would have never ever dreamed in a million years that we, "the Arkansas Hillbillies", lol. would have gone to Europe. but, we go where are children are, so I think we have been blessed with that. ok, enough. I could keep going. Living one day at a time, trying to take life slow and enjoy the years we have left here on the Beautiful Earth. Loving Life

It's so nice to learn a bit about everyone.

I've lived in Los Angeles for the the last 35 years. I'm a Teacher's Assistant at an LAUSD Adult School. I've been married 3 times, but always get the 7 year itch . Like Francine I am also a breast cancer survivor 13 years for me. I volunteer at an animal rescue center. I'm crazy cat lady, but I only have one cat at home, Milo who has the face of an angel and a devilish spark. LOL! I love crafting. I knit, quilt, and make jewelry. Here are two items I made to help raise money for the rescue center.

Wow, I loved reading about all of you. I'm 56, a native Texan (born and raised in the Panhandle, now live in Fort Worth) with the Love of My Life, my husband of 8 years. We have a daughter, who has four kiddos, and two sons. Our older son is a firefighter and engaged to be married in May 2014, so we are all excited about that and our younger son is working and making plans to go to school. I work for an educational grant-funded program called TRIO (anyone heard of it?) and we help first generation students go to college after high school. I LOVE my job!

I am a life-long Presbyterian, active in my church, and dependent upon my faith.

When we married, my two sons lived at home and we now have an empty nest and feel like we are on our honeymoon I like to read, crochet, cook, and visit with family and friends, and he loves to play golf, especially when I play with him. I'm not much of a player, but enjoy it when the Texas heat allows. We hope to be able to retire (someday!) and hopefully will get to travel more than we do now.

I think I have found a great group, I am 55 and live in Missoui in the country, love the outdoors and Harley's. Grandkids came into my life recently and I realized I wanted to get back to a more healthy state to be able to keep up with them. They range in age from 6 months to 10 years old (step Grandkids) went from 0 to 5 in less than 2 years. lol

Welcome!!!:flowerforyou:

I live in Stockport, near Manchester, England with my husband of 8 years, who is the love of my life. We met online 9 years ago, it was really love at first sight when we met in real life ! We have 2 sons, a daughter-in-law and a grandson, who is 2 and really cute and funny. We love to go walking in the parks and countryside near to where we live, and we are great animal lovers - we had 2 cats between us, but they have passed away now sadly - I don't know if I could get another pet yet, I still feel too sad from Monty dying this summer. My husband works as a job coach with young people who have disabilities, I am at home mostly painting and crafting, and I help out at an art club for disabled people. I also paint and make craft items for our local Cats Protection charity. You can see my work on susieparry.co.uk, if you are interested, and want to see some of the things I made for the Cats Protection - under the "Cats" category. I love to paint and listen to classic fm, I find it really relaxing. I am really an absolute worrier, and try to stop myself from that, but it is hard, as my son has long-term health problems, as does my elder brother. But we carry on and try not to stress. It has been lovely to read about all of you, especially about all the great wildlife you get to see where you live - great !
