We all used to be sooooo close. I sometimes couldn't keep up with with all the posts. Now, we don't update for days. I was laying in bed thinking about this. Area we all too busy? Is it because we don't have things in common like we used to (hence Jan weddings). Was it because we were knew and learning about each other. Like dating, we spent all our time together. Now we are like an old married couple, content spending time separately. Lord knows I am not incident in this not posting stuff, so there is no blame here. I am just sad to see this online community drift. You all have been some of the closest friends I have had during some hard times, and that is something I will treasure.
Long story short here...is that I miss you all.
Love Jen
Re: What happened to this board...
I like to think of it more as friends that you may not see or talk to all the time but you know they will always be there to support you.
Ive been super busy with my mom. I swear between her appointments and my appointments I would be so lost without my phones calendar feature! On the plus side she is back to work part time now so that means I have at least 4 hours to myself each day! Woohoo!
We had our baby shower yesterday but I will do a seperate post to talk about that.
This is a good way of putting it! Way to stay positive!
I guess I kinda figured it would happen eventually. We all came together because we were planning our weddings. Those who have had their babies seem to be dropping off for various reasons. I don't post as much as I just don't have anything to add to the baby discussions and I feel bad complaining about my job when I know there are people on here who have it much worse than I do.
Jean and I have been planning our cruise future on Facebook though.
As of right now, we're still out of funding at work, so come Thursday I may be sitting at home forced to use vacation days to make up for their shortfall. Talked to three different recruiters on Friday. Hoping one of them leads to something.
We got the water logged closet put back together about a week ago.
19 days to cruise #1! 140 days to cruise #2! When's the next one Jean?
Jen, I am glad you posted this because this is the way I've been feeling about this board and it makes me sad. I stopped posting so much because I felt like I was one of the main people posting and I didn't want you guys to get sick of me or my complaining. I do find it helpful for me to vent on here because I know you guys will help me out or just show me support.
Married the love of my life on 1-21-12. Our princess arrived on 5-28-13.
I agree with everyone else. I know for me, I mostly just work, try to keep up with housework and plan a trip to Disney world haha. Now with school...I really have nothing new or exciting to report. But, I know that if I ever need to vent or need any advice or a listening ear...you are all here.
You guys have never lectured me, or judge me despite the fact that I was 20 years old getting married. And I really really appreciate that. No one has ever given me the age lecture. = )
Don't worry, I'll still be around!
01.21.2012---> I married a redhead I'm crazy about.
04.2016: IT'S A BOY! Elias Alan is due!

I could fake one if you'd like?
Yup going to agree with Amity that we are like friends that don't get to see each other much.
I'm trying to check in at least once a week. I admit it is easier to keep up with everyone on Facebook as I have the app on my phone and check Facebook when I'm up in the middle of the night feeding Lily. I may not comment on here much but I do read it all. I know once Lily is a few months older and we have more of a schedule down that I'll probably be back more. I do miss talking to you guys.
I think you've bonded quite well. Even if you are a Carnival lover....
I'm just starting out
Carnival was convenient and inexpensive to start with. I told you I'm willing to try your NCL :P
