Thank you for starting this - I loved reading about everyone. So many wonderful, interesting, and (most importantly) kind, people in one place!

I'm 42, from Ireland and now living in Upstate NY. Hope to move back home in about 4 years. Mum to two girls, aged 12 and 11.

I'm a knitwear designer - I write knitting patterns for publication in books, magazines, online, and on my website (my avatar is one of my designs). I also work part time outside the home, otherwise I would never leave it (bit of an introvert. OK, a lot of an introvert). I work for our county's Domestic Violence programme running a supervised vsitation centre so that kids can have court ordered visitation with the offending parent can be in a safe environment.

I am mad about knitting (obvs), Doctor Who (have seen every episode since 1963), Victorian literature, squirrels, Scrabble, tea, tennis, and football (soccer to you here - lifelong Liverpool FC fan).

I am 52, mother of four, grandmother of four, have 4 furbabies.....hmm seeing a pattern. lol My youngest has special needs so a lot of my energy goes to him. He is part of the reason I did this. My partner is a great source of support and I am hoping she may take the same steps soon, for her health.

I’m a 39 year old working in healthcare management with two young sons and a husband of 13 years. I spend a lot of my free time reading, working on home projects, and quilting. I would say traveling but that kinda went out the window this past year. I’m rarely serious, pretty laid back, and happy to meet you all!

Hi everyone! Newbie here...

I’m in my early 30’s, married with furbabies, currently trying to juggle study, working part time as a GP, and keeping fit. I love to do powerlifting but a series of illnesses and injuries have gotten in the way recently so I’m looking forward to getting stuck into it again once I’m cleared post-op!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
