I have 2 weeks to go, hope it's not an infraction of the YT laws. LOL

1. What was your first impression of YT? Wow what a awesome place and everyone seems so friendly2. Who was the first person that *really* reached out to welcome you, whether it be PM or some other way that you remember? Most likely Villette
3. Did you have a specific problem/question for which you were looking for an answer? Mac and Mellie were getting fixed and I was so scared.
4. How old was your Yorkie when you first found/joined YT? Mac was 11 months Mellie was 7 months
5. How long have you been an Yorkie owner? almost 2 years.
6. Did you know right away that you would be addicted to this site?I loved reading the posts but was nervous to post everyone else seemed so knowledgable and I felt that I really didn't know enough to post.
7. Did you make fun of members who had thousands of posts without realizing that you'd eventually be one of them? No, it's amazing how people who joined around same time as me have thousand more. Wait until I get DSL at home in 2 weeks then watch out.
8. Have you met any YT member in real life? If so, who? Hopefully if it doesn't rain this weekend I will meet Teri and Megan and whoever is going to Tuckers party. There are so many people on here I would love to meet.
9. Have you spoken to anyone on the phone? Who?Not yet, but hopefully someday.

AHHHHHHH!

I know you told me that before, but it makes me cry reading it again.. It's so darn sweet!

teri88 · 04-20-2006, 09:25 AM

I just noticed that I was here a year on April 12th. So, now I get to post on here! Yes, I am a pathetic loser with no life!

1.What was your first impression of YT? Well, I like you guys too much now to tell you what my first impression was. I thought it was a great site, with tons of good information, but I was a little scared of y'all at first! that was before I realized that yorkies aren't dogs!

2. Who was the first person that *really* reached out to welcome you, whether it be PM or some other way that you remember? Ha, ha, ha. It was actually SoCal Yorkie!!!!! Bandit had liver shunt, and she was the one who pm'd me and said get him to the vet asap.

3. Did you have a specific problem/question for which you were looking for an answer? At first, I just wanted to learn about yorkies in general since Bandit was my first one.

4. How old was your Yorkie when you first found/joined YT? 10 weeks

5. How long have you been an Yorkie owner? 1 year and 2 weeks. (Minus a month between yorkies)

6. Did you know right away that you would be addicted to this site? No, it took me at least a week!

7. Did you make fun of members who had thousands of posts without realizing that you'd eventually be one of them? No, I didn't make fun of them, but I could not understand how anyone could have that many posts. Huh, then my daughter got on the site, and left me in her dust.

8. Have you met any YT member in real life? If so, who? Sherry Lynn!!!!

9. Have you spoken to anyone on the phone? Who? Joan, Crystal's mom called Megan for her birthday. I got to say hello and "it's for you". She didn't tell me who it was until after she hung up!

I'm 1 &1/2 months shy of a year but I want to play,,,,,

1. What was your first impression of YT?
To see others with the same likes, loves and passions when it came to family and our yorkies.

2. Who was the first person that *really* reached out to welcome you, whether it be PM or some other way that you remember?
This goes out to 3 members,,

My very fist PM was from Val of Passionfruition. She was very helpful on sending me some information on a carrier I was thinking about purchasing.

The most memorable PM was from Sylvia, of Lady of Yorkies. I will remember this always! She made me feel so welcomed and gave me some much needed advise about my niece Cherish. It was very heartwarming.

And lastly, of course Villette. She has always been there for me with help problems with computer related stuff and all but I once received a PM that made me feel so thankful that I was surrounded by such caring and loving people. I won't go into detail here but it made me feel so good to see that she is watching my back.

3. Did you have a specific problem/question for which you were looking for an answer?
Yes, lots of times.

4. How old was your Yorkie when you first found/joined YT?
Gus was 14 months.

5. How long have you been an Yorkie owner?

6. Did you know right away that you would be addicted to this site?
No not this addicted!

7. Did you make fun of members who had thousands of posts without realizing that you'd eventually be one of them?

8. Have you met any YT member in real life? If so, who?
The only person I met in person was the wonderful ladies I got Gus from. But I met them way before becoming a member on there. There are so many I would love to meet in person!

9. Have you spoken to anyone on the phone? Who?
I had the pleasure of talking to Scrapindee. We were trying to get together for a playdate that we seem to be having trouble doing thus far. Every month we get rained out. I feel May will be the month! LOL
