My turn....great thread, tough question - what do you want to know...
1. I have an older sister (34) and 2 younger half-brothers (15 and 13) - and I'll be 30 next month! My sister is my best friend - and MOH!
2. FH and I have lived together for 3 years, and we are forever working on our house!! I watch TLC and HGTV every spare minute I get (which isn't many)......and I'm a terrific sheetrocker and spackler! . I LOVE to cook and 'keep house'.
3. I have 2 tatoos - but you'd never know if by looking at me. Used to have a belly ring - but I don't have the same belly I had 10 years ago !
4. Love a crazy range of music, from Billy Joel, to Bette Midler, to Marilyn Manson. You don't want to hear my mix CD's I burn from the internet...
5. I love my FH so much it's crazy! I can't believe that I seem to love him even more each and every day that we have together (and he's temporarily moving to Albany in 3 weeks for the NYS Trooper Academy - don't know what I'm going to do... ).
Oh - and one more - we love outdoor activities....have a few jet skis, boats, snowmobile, quad.....as much as I want to win the snow contest - I just want it to snow so we can play !
And I have 2 dogs that I love like crazy (Pit Bull and Yellow Lab). And I'm known to be a wise a**......So nice to get to know everyone!
Lucille
I know what you mean, my SIL will be without my brother for 16 weeks while he attends the Maine State Police Academy! He starts Monday
I went through the Academy phase with FH. It's very tough and you definitely (and I am sure you will) be THERE for him. I too, wasn't physically with him at that time (he was in Trenton, NJ) and it was so hard hearing the difficulties in his voice and not being able to give him a hug. I found the best way was sending a weekly card (this academy was almost six months long) that he got and would read. We have amazing cards from that time period and it made us so much closer, tho we were farther away. Good luck with that --- it's also tough for you, so reach out if you have ?'s... Been there!

Re: another stolen idea - 5 things about you
I'll play!!
1. I live in Albany and go to SUNY Albany for my Masters In Social Work. Its a fast track 1 year program and I graduate this May (2 classes left)!!!
2. I desperately want a dog but if my apartment complex finds out a tenant has a dog your rent will increase by 50% so I guess I'll have to wait until I move out to get one (again happening this May)
3. This May FH and I will be moving to Philly to be closer to my brother and sister-in-law. My parents will be moving there after they retire so we will be all together again!
4. I have 1 tattoo on my back and want to get one (but am waiting till after the wedding so it wont show with my dress).
5. Im trying to lose as much weight as possible now before I go and try on dresses so I don't have a nervous breakdown when I go!
HOPE THAT WAS INTERESTING ENOUGH..I LOVE READING ABOUT ALL OF YOU!

His academy is 25 weeks!!! But he will be home on the weekends (mostly busy studying). I can get past the academy - the tougher part will be if he's stationed upstate for the first year or so - which is VERY likely...I'm ready to support him in whatever way possible - it's just short-term obstacles for a long-term reward

How funny Kim...I agree with everything you said...love Bon Jovi...seen him eight times in concert...too scared to pierce or tattoo anything, I let my imagine run wild when it comes to Michael Myers...lol the only thing different is that I'm going to be sad leaving my mom

Re: another stolen idea - 5 things about you
I am deathly afraid of Michael Myers too! We went to the haunted house in LI this past Halloween and I began screaming and buried my head in my FH arm when I saw the guy dressed like him! I can't even look at the Party City ads during halloween because the mask is always there.
My older sister used to tell me that she was going to stand over my bed with a Michael Meyers mask and a knife until i woke up. Nice sister, huh? And she is my MOH!

Yeah, Michael Myers is a scary dude. But Jason is the one that gets me. When I drive down a dark street with woods, I always picture Jason standing there......with an axe.......just looking at me.......

Re: another stolen idea - 5 things about you
I wanna play too!
1. I am the second of 4 girls (my older is the MOH and the other 2 are BM)
2. I also have a tatoo and you wouldn't think I do. It's on my lower back. It's a blue and gold son... I love those colors!
3. I also have my bellybutton pierced and have seriously contemplated taking it out after 10 years.
4. My cat, DJ, who I had for 20 years just died 2 weeks ago.
5. I am addicted to HGTV and anything that has to do with decorating. I have no clue how to do any of it, though!
6. I love my fiancee more now than ever. He is recovering from cancer and I am truly inspired by him.
7. My father was born in Paraguay, South America. You would never think I can speak Spanish looking at me.
