Calling all NEWBIES. ... Let's introduce our selves! Use this thread.

[MaryB59]

Hi, I'm Mary. I'm new to these threads but am excited by the opportunities to learn and connect.  I love AARP.  I'm very newly retired, live in the midwest, and there are SO MANY opportunities.

If you want to make connections with me and other Newbies, reply to this thread.  I'm seeing many starting individual threads/topics which will make it difficult to connect, just due to shear volume.

Hope to hear from you

Hello everyone! My name is Marie and I am a newbie, although I have been an AARP member for 9 years. I have been divorced for almost 10 years. I have 3 grown daughters, 7 grandchildren and 1 great grandchild. Last but not least, is my 12 year old cat, Muffin Man. I hope to meet new friends on here.

Hello, Marie!
New member, new to community! 24-year old son, divorced for 4 years, 15-year old dog that owns me!

[SusieC51]

Marie, I would prefer NC than where I picked - it was actually my first choice so I could get to the Outer Banks faster! While I was not born there, my entire family (13 or more generations) was! It's beautiful, the food is amazing and the people have manners!

Hi All,

My name is Jane, my husband and I live in Colorado, we are natives of Maine.  I came to Colorado in 2010 and also began and educational journey that so far has earned me a master's in Human Services. I am also in school to earn my BCBA, I need to find a BCBA supervisor certified, to help me achieve my goal.  If anyone is interested let me know.  I work in a charter school that serves At-Risk Teens, love my job, as a Paraprofession.

I am also a grandma of 4 girls and one boy, I will also adopt another boy and girl in November when my daughter marrys a wonderful man.  My daughter lives in Colorado with me and I have a son that lives in Germany that I have not seen for over 3 years.

Welcome Mari!

[SusieC51]

Hi Mari - welcome to the group! I am not really good with all this tech stuff (iPhone, computers, streaming) - things have certainly changed over the years & I just can't keep up. My grandson is a wiz but won't help because he has no patience with us older peeps! I just shake my head and think someday this will be happening to him, too bad I won't be around to laugh!
