Hi, I'm new!
Hi guys!
I've been lurking for a little bit and thought maybe I'd jump on and say hey. It's exciting to see that there really are people in Maine in their 20s and 30s...I'm not from here (DH grew up in Cumberland.) and feel like it's really hard to find people to make friends with.
That's all!
Re: Hi, I'm new!
Hello!
I am Melissa, I am pretty new too
Seems like a great group on here, with lots of great advice! (Actually I am excited to become pregnant/have a baby so I can get even more great advice haha)
Where are you from?
Welcome!
Welcome to another Megan! I don't live in ME, but I got married there and part of me would secretly would love to move there someday. For now, MH, DS, and I all live in Boston, with another little one on the way in March.
Welcome! This is definitely a great group!!! They have seen me through a lot since I got married in '07. I live in Southern Maine and am right with you that it is hard to make new friends.
So welcome

Thanks for the welcomes, everyone!
I'm originally from Pennsylvania. We live in New Gloucester right now, but are hoping to move in the next several months. No kids yet, just a goofy mutt named Henry.
Kristen, his first name is Josh...he graduated in 2001. He did a lot with theater while he was at Greely...he was also class president for a couple of his years there.

Welcome! I'm Kristy, DH and I live in Litchfield.
Stick around
I'm Megan too, and I also have a dog named Henry, LOL! We're in Brunswick and have an almost 18-monther, Marcus. Welcome to the board, it's a great place to connect and we do a lot of GTG's.
Welcome! I'm Jen, got married in Maine and live in Arlington, VA. A big part of me would love to live in Maine but my career and MH's makes it necessary for us to stay in the DC area right now.
Welcome!! I grew up in the County and went to college in Southern Maine. I live in TN now but I still consider myself a Mainer.
We have 2 goofy cats and are expecting our first baby in June!

Hi! I'm Jess and I live in Cape with MH and 14 month old. We just moved back to Maine (from Vermont) at the beginning of the summer. We're excited to be back home and in our new home! I'm currently looking for a job to put the icing on the cake! I actually participated in several of the New Gloucester farmer markets this summer as a vendor. Did you ever get the chance to go?
Welcome to the board - everyone here is awesome!
Hi! I'm Kimberly in Sanford. DH and I will be celebrating our fifth anniversary this July and our DD Helen will be three in May. We also have a naughty cat named Henry (it seems to be a popular pet name).
I grew up in Northern VA/Washington DC area and moved to Maine in 2002. You are right that it is hard to meet people once you're out of college. I met my DH on a blind date!
My DH is a native Mainer; he grew up in Pownal. Your DH probably knows my SIL. If I'm remembering correctly, I think she graduated from Greely in 2001. Small world! If you want to PM me, I'll tell you her name.
Welcome!! My name is Jennifer. I live in Westbrook with my husband & son... both name Peter . I am due with another boy in early March.
Nice to "meet" you! Hope to see you at a GTG soon!
Welcome! My name is Laura and I live with my husband and our cat in Portland...I'm pretty new to the boards and new to Maine, as well - we moved in July from New York, but are loving it so far!
Nice to meet you
Hi!
I'm Sarah and DH is Luke - we grew up in The County, but live in Pittsfield now. No kids, no pets!
Welcome! I'm Tanya and I live in Windsor with MH and our 2 kids....Joshua and Leah....plus our dog Emma!
Hi! I'm Darcie and I live in CT but I'm originally from Southern Maine, got married there and have land there that we'll be building on in a few years.
No kids but I've got 2 rotties who keep me hopping.
Welcome to the board!
Hi, I'm Lori, I live in Saco with my DH, three cats and our dog Indi. It's definatly cozy in our little house. On top of that we are expecting our first little one, she is due this Sunday!
Welcome to the Maine Nesties!
Jess - we did hit the New Gloucester market this summer, usually at the tail end on the way back from camp. Now I'll have someone to keep an eye out for!
Kimberly - I'm definitely PMing you...I'm constantly surprised at how small-world Maine is!
