INTRO, YO
Hi. My name is Liz Marie, and I am more familiar with TB July '11 board than any other. But I thought it might be nice to drop by and see what the locals have to say.
I am an artist, freelance writer, art model, and soon to be a SAHM. One day I'd like to go back to school to attain my BA in fashion & Fine Goods Marketing.
I am originally from North Carolina, and I've lived in Midcoast Maine for about 5 years now, which is how I met my Coastie husband. He is originally from Puerto Rico. He's probably the funniest person I've ever met, and I think we make a pretty good team. We have a small cat named Anchovie Peetsahutt Bowie (Chovie, for short), and we're about to add a baby to the mix as well. My due date is July 12th. I was previously told that I would be unable to conceive, so it's kind of a miracle.
We'll be in the area for at least another year. So I hope y'all don't mind letting me join your little group (it looks cozy!) for a while.
And that's all I have to say 'bout that! 
Thanks for reading!

Hi, my name is Alicia and I live in Rockland with DH, our little guy Josh and our fur-babies too.
Stick around, the ladies here are full of great info and are a total blast!
Welcome!
I'm Dani?le and I live in Lewiston with MH and our cat and dog. I'm also From Away, but moved here to Maine in 2006 because I'm a nicer person here and thought it would be a great place to have a family. MH is from Jay, so he helps me learn the lingo and get around!
Congratulations on your little miracle in the making! I love July 12th (it's my sister's birthday and she is wicked cool, so I consider it lucky!)!
What kind of medium do you work in? I was an art history major (world lit minor) in college and am lucky enough to live across the street from the director of the Bates Art Gallery-- but I am always interested in what contemporary artists are doing...
Hi! I'm Mel. DH, our 8 week old son, and our 2 cats live in Dover, NH now, but we grew up in Maine - me in Westbrook, DH in York Beach.
The ladies here are great! Definitely stick around!
