Trish,

I was tempted to change it to Becky Sting but decided that would be a bad idea. LOL

I am so glad that is done. It definitely feels comfortable and means a lot to me and my family. It's just ridiculous to keep someone's name just because you married them and made a horrible mistake. LOL

I bet you can't wait to change your name now that you know I did it.

I did change the avatar last night I think. I can't remember. LOL I thought it was really cool.

I got some more shoes the other day and need to send you the pics so your daughters can see them. BOGO sale is coming soon.

Hugs,
Becky

I was thinking about you doing this today and was going to ask how it went. I am glad to see you post about it. I'll bet it feels good, like going home.

Once DD17 turns 18 I will be doing the same thing.

EDIT: You even have a new avatar. Did you just change that today? I like it.

That really worked out good for you and your girls! That's great! I wish I had changed my name and my son's name when he was little.

I am very happy that I was able to change my name even after 40 years. LOL

Hugs,
Becky

it felt so good to go back as I can see you do too!!!

I don't even think I had the option to change my name to my maiden name when I divorced in 1972. Things were so different then. I think it was a good thing while my son was in school and growing up.

It never dawned on me to keep my maiden name as my middle name. So many women are doing that now and I think it is great.

I'm glad it worked out for you having your grandmonkey's name the same as yours. That cracks me up, grandmonkey!

I feel like I am getting rid of something really old and it needed to be done. I just wanted to do it for me!

Hugs,
Becky

i have always had my maiden name as my middle name on my drivers license. i do use my husbands last name in our business.

thankfully i don't have to sign my name with with all of it. 39 letters.

i think it's awesome you are back to being you.
