It 'tis me.

I wanted to change my name, and when you search my old name it brings up tons of posts and I have been spotted before by people I know!  So, here I am.  If you don't know who I am, I adopted a son :-)  Guess who!

Re: It 'tis me.

  • Hello, Floridamom! :)

    I am seriously thinking about changing my name too. How did you find out that people you know spotted you? I think I should've kept my name as "losinghope," lol! It was much more conspicuous. It's still active so I could always go back to it, but it's such a depressing name!

  • I am well!  Not much new to report.  Went on vaca over the holidays to visit fam, and DS saw snow!!!!!!

    I saw that someone new who I was a long time ago when I posted some stuff for sale on trash to treasure after my wedding.  Just didnt think too much of it, and it was someone I was friendly with in college anyways, so it wasnt too big of a deal.  Then one day, after reading a post about googling my name, I realized how much was attached to it.  So, I decided to change it randomly today !!

  • I've sometimes wished my screen name didn't have my & H's names in it, especially since our names aren't the most common out there. But since I am too lazy to even change my nearly 1 year old siggy pic, I don't see myself changing my screen name. If only I'd had any idea message boards even existed when I picked the name.

    And hi Floridamom :)

  • Hey!

    I hear ya about changing your name. Luckily, "lauren9317" isn't a name that anyone IRL knows, so I don't think anyone would search for me by it. But that's why I never put my email address in posts-- if I did, and someone googled my email address, these nests posts would come right up!

  • I know, I hate that mine is mine & H's names, but like everyone else, I didn't realize it would show like that. 

    How are you?  Are you back to work?  I go tomorrow...boooo!

  • I am working on changing my name too. I sent an email to member services saying to dactivate my nestie name but I have not heard back. If this name goes with my email how will I get a new name to go with the same email account?
