Hi all,
With regard to the post title.... I was around long ago (well maybe a slight exagerration) as briggi and I had a sudden urge today maybe to revisit the past - spurred on by a discussion with my students about a "youth" website they use here in Mexico - and see what had changed, what hasn't changed and who's still knocking around here!
As I just gave away in that last statement, I'm now living in Mexico (I get around) with my baby girls who are not so babyish anymore. I've been here for almost a year and a half working in an elementary school and trying to settle into a VERY different lifestyle. I had to get away from it all which was why I left thesite, too, I guess. But that's a long, not-so-boring story for another time.
Anyway I hope you're all doing fantastically. I'm sure there have been loads of romances, fallings out, babies, hilarious anecdotes, raging "debates" on P&D etc that I missed.
On that note I'm off for a snoop around right now to see what the craic is. Though I realise I'm now firmly planted in the oldies camp as I turn 25 in August - how time flies....

WTF? That's not old
Anyway :wave: @briggi who isn't briggi anymore.
It's just you had twins and had been moving around Europe? You just seemed older than 25 from your maturity
I only remember you cos you were from the toon.
Good to hear you're doing well in Mexico
Good to see you again. I rejoined yesterday. I was Kermit (for my sins). Really glad that you're doing well, although Mexico is a fucking random place to end up! GWST and I have a baby, called Rosie, who's nearly ten months old.

As for personality, she's as stubborn and as gobby as you'd expect from my offspring
I just browse when tipsy and bored, but had to post to tell you hello. Hope all is well. You aren't all too far from me now Just a couple day car trip (so long as it isn't during a holiday). Where abouts in Mexico are you?
Can't believe it has been 4 years since you've had the twins! Time flies. Can we get any pictures
HEY! I'm probably not too far at all, just 5 hours from the Arizona border (road trip?). I live in the state of Sonora in a place no one has heard of, close to Hermosillo (another place it's possible that no one has heard of). I go to the States all the time though - Arizona, California and Colorado - so now we can meet up mua ha ha.
I will get some pics together for you. I would just direct you to Facebook but Grandma has banned me from putting them on Facebook in one of her insane, paranoid fits.
How are you?
:thumb:
She is adorable! Ahhhh that snowsuit... absolutely unnecessary over here which must be why i never turn to mush around Mexican babies Congratulations! Is she simply Rosie or is it a nickname? Gorgeous either way and probably very fitting in that climate!
I don't remember a lot of people who disappear but I did sometimes wonder about you for some reason.
