For sure I did, I stumbled across JM googling something, and I absolutely loved the Sept DDC, I just didnt realize it wouldnt be the DDC I would be spending my time. And since I didnt have a choice with the m/c, Im so glad to have been able to choose ttcal. Id like to graduate mind you, but I could never leave ttcal totally. There are too many women here who have touched my heart, and supported me though everything. Thank you ladies, from the bottom of my heart.

Do your real life friends know you post on JM? Yeah, my closest friend thinks I am nuts. But that is okay, she is a phone addict and I can't stand that, so we are even.
