jen replied: Well I was able to talk to you, but I am at work too and usually don't have a lot of time to talk back and forth. When I am at home I chat on it more, it is hard at work because I leave my desk a lot.

booey2 replied: Hi, sorry same here about being at work and am jumping in and out all the time with no real lengths of time to devote to a real convo. I wish I could stay at home with my little ones then I would at least be able to have more me time on the puter. Sorry if I don't reply to i-m'ing, it is just that I am at work and we are short handed right now . Take care.

kimberley replied: call me dumb cuz i never even thought of doing that! lol

cause I not allowed to at work, but I have them on at home...

booey2 replied:
Well our original plan was for me to stay at home but we needed the $$ so I went back to work. DS #1 is in school half a day right now and DS#2 starts in 2005, I found that I had time when I was at home when DS#2 was smaller. Oh well you never now what fate might throw my way.

Jamison'smama replied: I always have ICQ on but usually not MSN--I am trying to turn that on but it has been so long I have forgotten my information

chloe&tysmommy replied: I totally forgot I had MSN IM so I have added a few people from the board...hope you don't mind

5littleladies replied: Hey Connie-Sometimes I'm just jump on for a couple minutes to check in, but when I get on for the long haul I always sign in.

Kirstenmumof3 replied: Mine is usually always on, but I'm not always in the room and often miss the conversation. The only time my messenger isn't on is when I'm not home! I will try to check my computer more often!

MommyToAshley replied: You can also use the Live Chat here to jump into a quick chat. There are scheduled chats on Monday and Thursday night, but you can use the live chat anytime. You could just post in the forum and see if anyone is interested in chatting. Usually, there is someone willing to chat.
