God bless you for being there for him Nana.

GlitzyMe 08-03-2011 01:50 PM

It's been fun to read people's responses to this.

My husband came up with GlitzyMe about 15 years ago when I first went online because I can't seem to call anything finished until it has a touch of glitz. My given name is Christine but I detest it (sorry to the other ones out there)and I don't answer to it. The reason I hate my name is because only one person ever used that and the subject shall remain closed. I tried to tell the nurses 44 years ago when my first child was born but they kept calling 'Christine' to wake up and she didn't. It's truly subconscious. I answer to Chris, Dear, Mom, Nana and Glitz.

My youngest granddaughter named me Super Grandma when she was five. She is now twenty-five. All the grandkids younger than she call me that. When the first great grand came along, I tried to teach him to say GG'Ma. He managed G'Ma, and I have been Super G'Ma for the last eleven years. The two oldest granddaughters still call me GrandMa.

My daughter's name is Sylvia. She passed away at age 19. I think of her and miss her everyday. In the neighborhood I was known by all the kids as Sylvia's mom. And there is also the song Sylvia's mother.

I wanted Betty Boop but that had been taken so I added my age when I joined so I am BettyBoop70. This thread has been fun and I have read every page!!!

My nickname is my first name, Chuck. The middle part, bere, is from the first NHL player that I met personally in Nashville. His name was Drake Berehowski. The 15 is Drake Berehowski's number from his jersey while he played for the Nashville Predators. And that is how I became Chuckbere15.

Tinabug 08-03-2011 03:06 PM

Mine comes from my little poodle Tinabug. She was my daughter's sweet dog. I lost my darling daughter in a 1997 car accident, she was just shy of her 22nd birthday and a med school student. My only child.
Tinabug was 15 1/2 in 1999 when she finally went to be with my DD. I miss them so much.
But every time I see Tinabug's name I smile. My avitar is my "new" girl Lacybelle 5 yrs. Let me tell you she is a real charmer and I love her very much.
