I have worked with Godsmack once before, but more than that, before they became big I used to see them at a local bar all the time. They were great to see in that compacity and everybody knew they were going to make it big one day.

Tobie Teriffic!!! This is exactly what we need to get to know eachother better. I have an aunt who shares your name. Although she is not in the military! I applaud you for your service to our country! Thank You!

Jennifer's Bio

Born March 31, 1980 in Wilmington Delaware but moved to Philadelphia 2 months later. Then moved to Jacksonville Florida at age 6 and have been here ever since. I am a big Eagles fan, but do not like the Jaguars

I was a pop warner cheerleader in junior high, but ended up quitting after being diagnosed with asthma (they didn't have meds then like they do now) Gained weight due to puberty, steroids (asthma meds) and a non active lifestyle. Lost weight when I got to high school (I grew taller)

Had my first baby (Aliyah Nicole) at age 19 and was a single mother until I met my fiance three years later. The story of how we met: Took my then 2 1/2 year old daughter to a pet shop to buy a bird and there was the man of my dreams, Moses! He was the manager there. We went out that night and have been together ever since (6 years now) Had my second baby (Makayla Rose) at age 23.

Career wise, I am a Certified Pharmacy Tech and worked at Walgreens for 3 years. After leaving there, I went to work at a Vet's office where I got to fill prescriptions for animals all day! After 2 years there, I left and started my own pet sitting and dog walking service, Avondale Pet Nanny, LLC (http://www.avondalepetnanny.com) I have been in business for about 13 months and have about 125 clients! My fiance just quit his part-time job, so we now both pet sit (and walk dogs) full-time.

Right after I opened my business, I got accepted to the University of Florida Pharmacy Program at Shands Jacksonville, (Go Gators!) but decided to give up my dreams of being a Pharmacist to focus on being a business owner. I decided I did not want to miss anymore of my childrens' lives (even though running a business is tough!)

I am an animal lover! I have a 6 month old German Shepherd puppy named Layla. She is my walking buddy. I have 3 year old tabby cat named Max, a porch kitty named Sylvestor (he came with the house) two Chinese Dwarf hamsters named Mia & Sharpay and my newest addition is a 6 week old polish Bunny Rabbit named Hip Hop.

My hobbies include reading, dining out with friends, movies and spending time with my family.

Oh yeah! I was a Hot Rod about a year ago, then I was a Wildcat where I met Lara!!

Sorry, so short! I'm not sure what else to say!

Jennifer... count yourself in for those points this week! Good Bio. I really could use your pet sitting services next month when I have to go away to my cousins wedding. Too bad you are in Jacksonville and I am in Boston. Thanks for submitting the bio!!!

That is way too cool! I would have loved to see them back in the day when they were a bar band.

Ha...ha...too funny Jennifer. You have a small petting zoo going on...sounds like me a few years ago. My ex and I had 1 dog, 5 cats, 2 rabbits, a duck and 30 chickens...nice huh!

Hmmmm....where to begin....I guess it all started on night when my mom and dad...well you know! I was born on January 30, 1974 in Forestville, Maryland and still reside there.

When I was 4 I was the lucky owner of a little brother...Michael...woo hoo! We all lived in a 2 bedroom apartment. One morning when everyone was still sleeping...me being the sweet little girl I was wanted to make breakfast for my family. I went out to the gas stove with my plastic pot full of wooden blocks, topped off with my easter purse made of polyester and plastic and turned it on. Boy I had never seen something burn so quick...my parents saw the smoke jumped up and grabbed my brother and I and ran out of the house. Luckily there was only minor damages. To this day I don't like to cook...ha ha!

At age 5 we moved to a house right across the street and I was blessed with a little sister named Shannon. We still live in the same house and its been 29 years.

Over the years I attended a catholic school from 1st through 8th grade. While in middle school I played softball for 4 years. We were the CYO state champions. Those were the days. I was always chunky through middle school even through high school. I never knew what it was like to be skinny.

After high school I started working for a furniture company...I also started dating this guy I thought he was the man of my dreams. I was wrong...we ended up having many problems...he abused me both physically and mentally. I finally got out after I had enough...I was devistated when we broke up. I ended up making myself sick with eating...I would eat and puke because I was so depressed. I ended up losing over 60lbs with in a year. I was sickly looking and had friends and family telling me that. I finally picked myself up and started living again.

I have 7 tattoo and will have more someday soon, I also have my eyebrow pierced. I love to go to concerts especially if they are hard rock or heavy metal...the louder the better. I love scrapbooking and going to the beach. I have the cutest dog Maggie she is a Border Collie and the sweetest cat Isabelle. I have 2 wonderful nieces Maddie 7 and Emma 5...they bring a smile to your face everytime you talk to them. I am also the pround Godmother of 2 boys and 2 girls.

Last but not least 11 months ago yesterday I became a mother for the first time to a beautiful little girl Lillian Elise. She is my miracle and I would be lost without her. She is absolutely precious. I'm very lucky also...I'm a single mom and my parents help me out all the time. I don't know where I'd be if it wasn't for them.

I guess I better cut this off now before none of you can add anymore posts cause I took up all the room...ha ha! I'm so glad I found this team you guys are all awesome. Thanks so much for all the love and support.

Hey Jinni, I have my eyebrow pierced too! I got it done on my 18th birthday, so I've had it for 10 years now (damn, I feel old)

PS and there is that military connection too. My dad was career Army, first husband Army then Air Force, second husband Air Force and I met him at Shepard AFB. I lived in Wichita Falls for about three years.

Wow...that is a lot in common! My oldest daughter was born at Shepard. I lived in Cleveland MS and Drew MS, then I went to school in Morehead MS at Mississippi Delta Jr. College.

Heather we have some things in common too! I love pets and have has as many as 15 dogs and 14 cats, all at one time when I had a farm in New Jersey. My best friend bought the farm when I left Jersey and started to raise goats there. I love goats too! We had one my husband named Chief Goat because he thought he was the boss of everything! He liked to come in the house and sit in my hubby's lounge chair! I've been a business owner and it's hard work for sure, but it's great to stay home with your kids for sure! I love visiting Florida and if I were to ever live there it would be up at the top end there where you get a bit more cool weather! And of course there is that Philly connection, man I still miss that area! SO glad you are a Rockstar now!
