Kat,
I also meant to add that I used to type the ages like you mentioned, but as they got older, the years kept changing. So it seemed to be easier to just type the O and the Y.

But I think having the numbers might actually be better. That way folks know how old they are.

When I started here in late 2002, my oldest was 16 (turning 25 in June), and my youngest was 8 (turning 17 in June). Seeing them grow in real life and on the BB gives Surviving a whole new meaning. It wasn't just me on here - it was my kids to trying to find their way through.

Does that make sense?

Me 47
Ex H 46
Bomb 9/02
D final 3/04
Ex H now married to OW

This is surviving. There is no such thing as a normal life, there's just life. So get on with it and enjoy it!
