Well I guess I'll start. I have been in the fast food biz since I was 14, I'm 32 now ooh scary. I work for a small franchise of BK. I'm happily married to a wonderful guy that takes great care of me. We don't have kids but we have our "fur babies" a dog a cat & 2 chinchillas. We live in a nice subdivision by a small lake, we like to boat & kayak. Hopefully this year we can take up cross country skiing. In my spare time I like to dabble in real estate also.

I think I posted this before , so sorry for repeating myself. I am a stay at home Mom, my kids are 10 & 5 1/2 ( almost 6 , he says). I live in NYC. I am NOT the proctologist either,lol. I just came back from vacationing in San DIego, & I want to move there, it was just so beautiful ! I don't work outside the home, so I dont know much about the fast food business except for that my kids love McDonalds & Burger King,lol.

Mad 42,what is NYC like? I'd like to get out there someday. Do you ever think you'd be able to pack up and move across the country though? I wish I could, I'd go to south Florida Cool

NYC is awesome, I was born here ( Brooklyn). Its expensive to live here though, tax is 8.825%, Real estate in insane too. I live about 15 minutes from Manhattan, where you can literally get anything any time of night, even in my neighborhood you can too. After going to CA on vacation, I would love to live there, but my parents are getting older & they depend on me somewhat. Maybe someday we'll leave. Where do you live?

We live in a small township about 45 minutes north of Milwaukee WI. We both grew up in this area also. I'd move in a second but, family obligations keep me here. Taxes are crazy here too, however nothing like NYC. Real estate is starting to fall in line here, about time!

I'm 32. Yeah the city I work in is only 30,000 people& it's about 15 minutes from where I live. Milwaukee is the biggest city close to me & it's not even that close.

At least you don't live in Saskatchewan. The winter temps here get as low as 40-45 below zero CELSIUS. When we add the windchill it feels like 50 below zero or more. I'd rather have your winter than mine.

LOL! Saskatchewan is right above North Dakota. I'm not certain what the Fahrenheit temps would be, but at a guess they'd be around 30 below. Confused

We layer up. Sweaters, shirts, gloves, hats. This past summer it was up to about 38 Celsius. We also had really high humidity and it felt like 50 Celsius. That's roughly 120-130 Fahrenheit.

mad42 yeah we have all 4 seasons, well we have summer fall/winter, winter,& winter/spring. Winter seems to muck everything up here. Not looking foward to winter at all. I won't complain though seeing as we have a few canadians. chicken man.. how long is the summer up there? Winters like yours you need to stock up on the wild turkey!
