There are lots of girls in the dreaded 2WW, so I thought we can all help pass the time for them!

Let's get to know each other! Answer these two simple questions...

Where are you (city, state, country, province)?
What do you do for a living?

This games sounds fun! My 2WW started today! http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/dance.gif I am 32 years old, was born in Hawaii(family was military), grew up all over due to dad being in the Army and am now a New England transplant thanks to my DH http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/love2.gif who I've been with now for nearly 10 years.

Since I am new, this is great..

Mommawannabe,

Shouldn't the computer systems be compatible with the contracts rahter than the contract compatible with the computer systems? We shouldn't let computer systems constrain us! lol I'm just making light fun of this because daily I find my company does weird, wasteful things, just because our computer systems didn't let us do it the right way. These problems provides me job security! lol

hi -- this could be fun !! I'm 34 - live in Louisiana near New Orleans (the French Quarters).
I work part time at a oilfield co. - I am also self employed. If I am ever blessed to have a child I plan to stay home and never miss a minute !!!! Baby dust to all !!!

Hi Mindoo!! LOL - I know, right? I am still LOL at your response - pretty senseless how we'v pretty much became slaves to computers - but hey!! It provides me job security too. http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/biggrin.gif

I'm not necessarily 2ww, but waiting is still waiting. This is a great idea MrsR. Gives us newbies a chance to kind of get to know who's out there.
Me, I live in Brownsburg IN, suburb of Indianapolis. I work for in a corn mill QA lab, testing ground corn (of varying types, stuff for corn flakes, chex, kix) and masa (stuff in tacos and tortillas, treated corn) to make sure it's within specified limits. I'm making sure you're fritos, cheetos, doritos, and tostitos, are good to go!
Not an easy thing to describe fast--corn princess!
But after baby I'm retiring to be a stay at home mom.
Currently I'm Mommy to our 4 year old Boxer, Fina, and our 2 fat cats, Angel and Dusty, 11 and 8 respectively.
Baby dust to all.
Cathy

Hi Cathy--my good friend used to live in Brownsburgh and worked at Eli Lily. I spent a few days in Indy myself last week. My RE also has 2 offices in Indy and communtes back and forth from Evansville. (Dr. G). He's not by chance your doc too is he?

I have 9 days left in 2ww http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/smile.gif
I am from NJ and I am a Nurse Manager

Hi all-good idea for a game! I live in Eureka, Montana, which is only 7 miles from the Canadian Border. I am not in the 2ww at this particular moment. I have been married for almost 4 years(July)to my DH. I am an elementary teacher, currently teaching Title I for K-2. It keeps me busy, but it's hard sometimes working with young children. (because I want to be a mom so bad!) I have a cat that keeps me company-when I need it. Good idea!
Teener-how are you doing?
