Hiya!  Happy Tuesday

 

What is the name of the city/town you were born in?

I was born in Montreal,QC. Granted, my parents like to say "You were made in Finland!" where I can't help but react with "Okthatisgreatthanks
"

Oh I've had a similar
with my own mother when she was trying to make a point to me about why she needed a new mattress for her bed. I was a teenager; what did I care that she needed a new mattress?

North Platte, Nebraska, where I lived for 50+ years, now I live 70 miles south of there. The older I get the more I appreciate the change of seasons, I always thought I'd like to live somewhere warmer, but after all of our hot weather and drought, I look forward to some down time. Sitting in front of a fireplace with my husband and my cats is NICE!

Camp LeJeune, North Carolina bc Dad was in the Marines. Moved back to central PA when I was about a year old and have been here ever since.

(But I tell you, when we retire, we are moving, cats and all, to Belize!)

Born and raised in Brooklyn, NY until I was 10-1/2.  Then out to NJ for the rest of my childhood.  Did a short stint in Florida in my 20's and promptly ran back home (hated living there).  Lived in NYC proper for 10 years and then back to NJ again.  Work in NYC like, forever - so long I have forgotten how many years now.  

So, I'm a real NY'er with a side helping of New Jersey

I was born in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada. I lived there until I was almost 10. In the 17 years since, I've lived in Paris, Belleville, Mount Elgin, Tillsonburg, Brantford, Cambridge and back to just outside of Tillsonburg. All in Ontario, Canada.

Hey, Cassiopea, I've just noticed you've taken over Tuesday's QOD... Good for you!

I was born at St. Clare's Hospital in Denville, New Jersey, & lived in Hopatcong, NJ For 17 years.

I've been in Charleston, SC for the past 8 years, and while I enjoy living near the beach and historic downtown, I would run back to NJ tomorrow ;) Maybe one day!

I was born in the Navy hospital in San Diego, California. I think the name of it was Balboa Naval Hospital? Fun fact: my mom was in the same room for both me and my brother, 2 1/2 years apart! That hospital is gone now. We lived there until I was almost 6 and then my dad got stationed in Japan. My youngest brother was born in a Japanese womens' clinic. My mom says she wanted to have "made in Japan" tattooed on the back of his neck like dolls have :lol3:.
