Welcome from the Mid West (US)
Meg:
Hi,
Meg is my nickname, ever since I was little. It fits me nicely. (I am NOT a Meghan, as that name didnt become popular until about 10 yrs after I was born. :P )
I have lived in Madison, WI since about 1982 (The years prior to that I was a student at the University and didnt qualify as a state resident)
I grew up in a suburb of Rochester, NY. Our home was about 5 miles away from Lake Ontario.
I am married, and have one daughter, Zina, who is 13.
I stumbled onto Playmobil several years ago when other friends introduced me to the toy. Their daughters were a bit older than Zina. I bought alot of 1*2*3 items when Zina was a toddler, and the line was very new. Then, I bought her the Victorian dollhouse when she was about 6 or 7, along with many of the room sets to go with it.
I became a fan of Playmobil, when I started researching what other Victorian sets there were, and noticed how incomplete my collection was. Our house has never been the same. 8}
I have tried very hard NOT to stray into too many themes, but it is nearly impossible.
I would list the themes that I enjoy, but it would include just about everything.
My husband does not understand the collector in me. :hmm:
For a reality check, I tutor children in Math. I like doing it, and think I am pretty good at it, too.
I have also gone by the pseudonym of LadyM in other cyber neighborhoods.
I have been happy to help Sylvia, G, Psyche and Serenity in the establishment of this site. I hope all of you come to enjoy it as well.
Psyche:
Meg? I knew a Meg once...cute chick with a super Playmo collection...could you be her? A bit of a Ninja as I recall... :wave:
Meg:
that was a younger incarnation
Zina had to do the rainbow text for me when she should be doing her math homework
Psyche:
Well done Zina! Can I get you to do my important correspondance? :D
Sylvia:

This sounds a lot like how I became hooked, as it was the Victorian range that started me collecting and researching. I'd known of Playmobil for a few years before my daughter was born, but it wasn't until we bought her the Victorian Dollhouse for Christmas one year that my interest really grew. :)

Wow! I love it! :D A lot of work, but the effect was worth it! 8-)
