I signed up with MyLot a few days ago and basically just wanted to introduce myself to the group. I see it seems as though no one else has, or at least couldn't find any other introductions so lets see how many people we can get to intorduce themselves. It doesn't matter if you have been on here 24 minutes or 24 months....Who are you!?!? :)
Well on to mine....I am a 30 year old stay at home mom to 4 children. 3 of my children are from a previous marriage....my 8 year old son, my 7 year old son and my 5 year old daughter. My husband and I had a son and he is 10 months. My husband also has a 2 year old daughter and a 5 year old son from a previous relationship that visit us every Sunday. So it gets pretty busy here sometimes. I have worked off and on (out of the house) in between pregnancies.
We live in Florida. I was born and raised here and dont believe I will ever leave here. I hate cold weather so I dont think I would like to live anywhere else really.
Ummm lets see, hobbies and stuff I/we like to do.....go to the beach, our pets, family time, reading, movies, music, driving, shopping, traveling, going to amusement parks, zoos and anything entertaining really.
I suppose that is it really. Not too much to say!
Cant wait to hear who else is on here!!!! :0)

Hi there! And welcome. I just joined Mylot a few days ago as well, and I tried starting one of these discussions, but with the amount of discussions started all the time, they get cycled through pretty quick!
Im a 28 year old from Vancouver, Canada...married with 2 children. We have two beautiful little girls, one is a little over 2 years old, and the other is 4 months old. I work as a computer salesman/service technician, have been doing it now for a couple years.
We love to travel around, watch movies, go to the beach, camp...all the fun stuff. I was hoping we could make a little more money on MyLot, but now that Im here and have been posting, I dont care much, just fun having little conversations with people.
Anyway, have a good day and talk to you again sometime.

Hi, and welcome!! I've been on mylot umm maybe 3 weeks now . I think it's alot of fun writing how we feel about different things and reading what everyone else has to say about things . I see you like pets and the beach . I will probably see you writing about those things because they are two of my favorite discussion topics .
I live in the Yucatan , Mexico with my husband and 3 dogs. We are retired and enjoying life ! I hope to read more of your discussions in the future .
Have fun !

Hi! I live in Ohio and have been here all my life. I am 58 and live with my 76 yr. old mother and we have 30 cats! We use to rescue and help stray cats get healthy and find them good homes but now we no longer do it because of health reasons and also we are just getting too old to keep it up, we've done it for over 20 years. We will never turn a starving stray away, but we no longer do this on a large scale like we use to. As for the 30 cats we have, they are the ones nobody wanted so they are now ours, forever! Some have nasty dispositions, some are feral, a couple have only 3 legs, some are very shy, some are loners, some are too attached to us, some are ugly, some have been burned and have ugly skin and no ears, some are disfigured, one is a little stunted, pigmy cat, (failure to grow), she is 4 years old but looks like a kitten and a lot of the rest are too old to place, one is 24 yrs.old, (that's human years)! Three have only one eye and two are totally blind but they get around just fine, (if we don't move the furniture that is)! These are our cats now and will be with us till the end and we love them all!

Hi callahanb, welcome to mylot! That was quite an introduction! I am a 33 year old stay at home mom of 2 boys, ages 11 and 8. My oldest son is autistic, so both kids keep me on my toes! I've been married to my husband/kids dad for the past 14 years. I'm California born and raised. Have been here all my life. As far as hobbies go I like the net, animals, photography, and of course family time. That's about it for me.

Welcome to this site, and make sure to leap in with both feet. This can be a very interesting site when you're willing to look around.
It sounds like you're a modern day Brady Bunch. That could definitely be fun.

Hi there! Welcome to my-lot, I hope you like it in here.
I don't think I tell anything about myself online, if anyone needs to know anything about me, they can check my profile. That's all the information I can give about myself online.
Anyways,
Happy-Mylotting

Hello everyone and thanks Callahanb78 for starting this discussion. This is a good thing. I'm new here as well, about less than a day old and I want to start by saying that I came to join this site to improve my writing and communicating skills. And maybe along the way find or gain some good friends. I have never been good with words nor gathering them into a good composition, so here I am hoping to be a better writer a few months from now...hehehe...oh, and if anyone feels like correcting my writing or grammar and punctuation, please do! I'm a 36 year old stay at home single mother of two ages 15 and 11. I love to bake and anything that has to do with arts and crafts. We enjoy movies, museums, parks and the beach. That is all I can think of saying for now.

You have an excellent idea here. I suppose I should introduce myself as well... I am a sixteen year old student with intelligence well beyond my years. I enjoy writing articles for websites. I like social communities like these ones. I participate in stage musicals, school choir, and I write music. I am terrible at sports and relationships, I'm sorry to say. Not a whole lot else to tell about me.

Welcome to myLot. We don't have a formal introduction section like some forums. You just come in here and start responding to discussions that interest you, start discussions you want to get started, and have fun. My profile tells "strangers" all I want them to know, and as I get to know people, I may tell a little more about myself. Reading other people's discussions gives you a pretty good idea of who they are and what they're about.
Settle in and join in some other discussions and make yourself at home.

Well welcome to mylot! You will find the discussions and the community very nice here. I am a mother of 4 children. I also have a Grandchild on the way. I have been out of work for sometime so I earn my money online at home now. I spend my mornings online then free time in the afternoon, then after dinner I come online again. I see you live in Florida thats where we hope to move sometime soon. Right now we live in Texas and we are not to close to the beach. You will find I am a beach lover so a lot of my topics revolve around the beach and ocean. My hobbies are my online earning programs,collecting antiques and vintage items,travel,reading and so many other things I cant list them all. Well anyways welcome to the group and enjoy!
