MelissaA 06:34:48 Tue Aug 20 2002 |
It's the same for things like italics, bold etc. Just click on what you want and insert the text in between the 2 codes. And 'whispers' are when you want to tell one or more other members in particular something without everyone else seeing. Just make sure the whisper is between the 2 whisper codes, unlike an earlier attempt by somebody else on this board.

Milky 13:18:56 Fri Oct 4 2002 |
Milky here - lol - I know some will recognise that name from somewhere else...  My name is Kylie, I am 31yrs old, I am a SAHM with three boys (although I will freely argue the point that it is 4 with my partner in crime ). Christopher is 9yrs old, Brendon  is 4yrs old, and Jack  arrived on January 23 2002, he's a cheeky little one too - that's for sure. I live in Western Australia, and have only been here for 2 years - I moved from Sydney to be with my lovely man and we'd been friends for over 7 years, and then we just decided to give it a shot, and now we're engaged, have another little boy added to the family, and we're getting married next September.It's good to see some familiar people in here - and it's refreshing to see there's freedom of speech, and no nastiness. I'm happy to be here! Cheers, Kylie aka Milky

Bartelby - here's you're official welcome. :sun:That big #-)'s a bit of a shocker hey. Don't worry - after turning 31 2 days after you turned 30, I now think that 31 is more of a problem as you're officially in "the 30 zone"  There's no escape from that one either.  And I wasn't counting - I promise!
I myself am in Sydney with the 2 rugrats - 2 girls, one recently turned 1, and the other at the great age of 3.Anyway, glad you came in and said an official Hi. :sun: |

You probably have to actually click on the word "indifferent". I'm not 100% sure of that, but I know tha before I figured it out initially, it was a word and not a picture that came after "Current Mood". Just click whatever's next to it and then you should get a pop-up box with all of the moods in it. And if you ever need any help with anything else, let us know. :sun: |

This board drew my attention because I am interested in all things Australia. I have always dreamed of visiting there, and was starting to really think it would happen two years ago then - BOOM! - got pregnant after 10 years of marriage and being told we were infertile. So, NOW, I am a SAHM struggling to make ends meet, with a beautiful 16 month old dd named Constance Friend (or Connie). I hope to have time to visit your site quite often. I really like the way it's organized!

Hi Charlie, welcome to the board. Don't worry Linda, you're not the only one who forgets how old you are - I keep thinking I'm 30, not 31. Is this some sort of psychological mindset alluding to the fact that I don't want to be older than 30??

Hi airforceone, don't worry I haven't let a name fool me yet. I think the only one I've ever seen that was possibly some cause for concern was one that my DH had picked for himself for my original parenting board - namely 'testostorone girl.' I told him that I wouldn't be suprised if this led people to think he was a transvestite or having a sex change or something. He of course just intended it to be funny. Anyway, I'm Melissa, mum to 2 girls 3.5 and 16 months and we live in Sydney. Glad to have you here.

Hi Emily, welcome to the board. If you haven't run screaming by now, from the last few replies to your post you've done well. As you can see, they're all , I'm the only sane one around here but they're so they'll tell you otherwise. As for any of them being the of the group - HA! Perhaps you yourself would like to apply for the position after you've settled in.
Just to check......Jessica and Dylan aren't twins with a gap between are they?? You have them down as being 12 days apart and as you have the 17th before the 5th, I'm wondering if the years are actually correct or if that's a typo. Sorry, I'm just such a stickybeak, I like to be sure of how old everbody's kids are..(although everyone will tell you I get them wrong all the time )And if the girls get a bit too rough playing with you, then I'll lend you my :whip: and you can get them all back into line.
