Hey there! I'm Meredith, a southern girl gone city. I adore all things Chicago... discovering new restaurants, shops, parks and more! I am a travel fanatic, road biker, gelato lover and wine snob to name a few. Animals, TiVo, bike rides, live music, good friends, dear family, anything chocolate, and roof top decks are a few of my favorite things. Now it's YOUR turn!

Hello everyone. My name is Sylvia. I was born & raised in Brooklyn, NY. Years later my whole family movied to Lex. KY where I lived for about nine years. Soon after my husband & I got married he was promoted to Assistant Manager, but we had to move to Indiana. Indiana is okay but I can't quite call it home just yet. Together we live with our 2 cats, 2 dogs, & a tank full of fish LOL.

I'm a California gal that has been transplanted to the state of Pennsylvania.  I love my home state and I miss it often, however, I have now have spent more of my life in Pennsylvania and have adapted and grown while living here.  Besides this is where my daughter was born and soon she'll be off to college soon. :(  That will be yet another change for me.  I guess change is the guiding part of my life, LOL. :)

Just scratching the surface, I'm a crafter, scrapbooker, advid reader, educator, and a million other things.

I am single, but living with my one and only.  I am a full time mother for his two children. I love them as if they are my own.  I do not have any children of my own yet.  Hoping one day soon.  I have a dog, Lucky.  He is just like one of the kids.  All three of them get spoiled.  I love to... sew, cook, clean, bead, scrapbook, play, camp, fish, travel, shop, watching those awsome tv shows. I just love butterflies.  I have one tattooed  on me.  lol.

Hi CountryMama!  Sounds like you have a lot of background to go on when writing reviews :)  It's nice to have people who've gone through a lot of variety in life!

Welcome to everyone else as well!  A lot of people popped up on here that I missed saying that too :)

Hi everyone!
I'm Kim or u can find me on the net as ~TrulyConfuzd or BEADLBRAIN~  I was referred to this site from another and I'm so glad I was, I love it!

Well a little about me, I'm 46 and have lived in West Virginia most of my life. I'm a country girl at heart, but live just outside the city of Parkersburg right now..the thought of selling this house n moving country again is always back there in ma brain somewheres.

My kids are grown and I have 6 wonderful grandkids, a dog named Rebel (oops my character is showing) lol
We don't travel alot, but enjoy it when we do. I love the beach, or a camping trip with family. We do travel to visit good restuarants in WV and Ohio.

I work at home and, as an artist have worked one time or another in most all crafts (sewing, knit, crochet, doll making, paper making,scrapping, wood working, creating anything One of a Kind OOAK) lately it's  paintings on antique roofing slates.
I had a business restoring houses till back problems put that on hold, so now I'm selling my art and working on my websites (well when I can get myself away from games and painting!)
I also enjoy gardening and doing home improvement projects, working with clay/bead making...hence BEADLBRAIN~
I'm new to reviewing but tend to let others know exactly what I think so this is going to be a lot of fun :)
If I have to take something back to a store, my friends or family tend to wonder off  somewhere...let them give me flack about a return and even the customer srv staff will stand back!
Grr that happened with a coffee pot recently..oh well, better save that for a review lol
Anyways, glad to be here and nice meeting you all.

Good day good people! Darrin (in Wash, D.C.) is the name and music is the game! The story goes like this......when I was a baby I would cry like cry when it came time for me to lie down. NOTHING would calm me down until that one magical day that my mother put a blue pocket radio playing motown music in my crib. That was the very moment it was believed that I fell in love with music. It has and still does carry me through every high and low that life has to offer hugging my soul at every moment.

I am a big brother , little brother, uncle, great uncle, kind and caring, pet crazy, travel ready, hard working, movie watching, shopping addicted, good smelling (lol), concert going, life & fun loving kinda guy born on halloween.....BOO! :~)

I everyone! My name is Featured Writer of The Week PERRYEASTEP. Lol! :P

I think my head is getting to big now, so watch out!

Just wanted to say hi to everyone, people here are so nice, and I'm really enjoying this place. I came here just to do a couple reviews for MyPoints, and found myself coming back more and more. Now you can't get me to leave this place, so your stuck with me.

I love video-games, movies, beer, exercise, and my favorite buddy in the world, my dog Rascal. Thanks everyone for all of your nice comments over the months, and I look forward to the future of this place! Cheers!

My turn! 31 year old father of twin girls and a son! I enjoy spending a lot of time with my children. Yes that includes watching Open Season (a.k.a. The Bear Movie) 10 times a day and lately Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (a.k.a. Willy Wonka) 15 times a day. I've been in Georgia all my life with the exception of the year I spent outside of Winston-Salem, NC. I love playing sports. Golf and basketball in particular. I played basketball in college and I just played in the Jack Nicklaus International Invitational USA Game golf tournament in Orlando this past August. I also enjoy lifting weights and swimming.

Hi there my name is Tiffany im a stay at home mommy and im loving it...I am married and have just one baby girl. I love going out to movies, bars, hanging out with friends and family. I am shy at first but open up fast. I am sincere, sweet, fun, energetic, and spontanious. I enjoy my life and try to make others happy as well. I am a lover not a fighter and i try to make sure everyone gets along with me. I sometimes end up being too nice but im also too forgiving. I dont mind though cuz i just want everyone to learn to forget the past. Live in the now. Well Bye for now...

Hi there, my name is Twylla, I live in Dallas, Tx, but was raised in Amarillo, Tx.I have an associates degree from Amarillo College, graduated from there in 1984. I am married for the third time, almost 10 years this time. I love any form of motorsports, but my favorites are NHRA drag racing and NASCAR. I am a huge Tony Stewart fan. I went to my very first NASCAR race April of 08, then to my second Nov of 08, Now I am hooked! During the off season I watch race movies or read or watch whatever is on the SPEED channel. I try to practice paying it forward, which has been very rewarding. Have a fantastic day, living it one day at a time.

Well Hello ladies and gentlemen,

 I be char, Well no i be a charmine (its two words) Not the toilet paper. I am a 29 year old mother of 3 wonderful and highly challenging daughters. 7,5,4  I was born on march 8 1979. On the wonderful island of oahu I was quickly shipped off to the island of kauai and promptly returned to the island of oahu ( my mother unstable ) . Where i quickly became an addition to my grandparents home. My grangfather at the time was a marine so i was raised with the ahh... "semper fi" model. At the awesome age of 21 i met my first " common wealth partner" and traveled with him to tenn. Where my very beautiful and first child was born. we lived there for roughly 2 years then moved to florida where my second daughter was born.

Let's see, I'm from beautiful, Wisconsin, orginally from Central Illinois.  I've been married to my best friend for 35 years. We have two beautiful grown daughters, 2 wonderful s-i-l and 2 of the prettiest sweetest granddaughters ever.  Our family also consists of our fur and feather babies.  Woody is our little old man.  He's a rescue baby and the best we've ever had.  Tonight he protected me from a pile of leaves.  Good Dog Woody.  And Dumb and Dumber, our parakeets are also rescue babies.  We've had them for over a year and they still hate humans.  They only tolerate me cause they know where their food comes from.  :)

We live in the sticks.  A small rural area surrounded by nature, woods, lakes, fields and forests.  Nothing is better than waking up to deer at your birdfeeders or Sandhill Cranes napping under the Lilac Bush.  We are nature freaks and shoot with a camera not with a gun.  We're sky watchers by  night and scenic lovers by day. 

My passion is crafting or being creative in some form.  I love design work and recently designed my new kitchen.  Hubby is a master woodworker and is building my perfect kitchen as we speak.  It's a slow process but it's going to be beautiful and one of a kind, just like we are.

Wow, it's good to be here and read all about "you all"  ;>)  I am new to ViewPoints and am really having a great time. Have even been fortunate enough to have made some "fans & friends" already. So what can I tell you about me?

 Hmmmm, I am a book-store browser, museum-goer, music-lover, wine-taster, would-be gourmet cook, word-game aficionado, applauder-of-the arts and a great lover of life.

Up until last Sept, I lived in Laughlin NV, working at Harrahs Casino. I had moved to the desert in '97 to recuperate from spinal surgery. Before that, I had been a school bus driver in Wappinger Falls NY. I moved back to NYS just before my 62nd b-day and decided to take early retirement. 

I have 2 sons and 3 grandkids. They are the reason I came back east. I missed the 2 oldest grandsons growing up and didn't want to miss out with the youngest (a girl). 

Thanks for being here, hope to get to know many of you.
