Hey all :)

I am a new mer from lovely British Columbia, Canada. I haven't picked a mer name yet so you are welcome to call me Acc. I am a little older than many here I think, I am 37 years old, married and a mother of four wonderful children. I have just recently purchased two fabric tails, one for myself and the other for my 12 year old daughter. She is a natural mermaid *lol*.

I have loved mermaids since I was young and have always used the dolphin kick when swimming so swimming in a tail wasn't too difficult to get used to and was absolutely awesome. I am designing my own silicone tail to raise awareness for ocd. Not ocean related but I love stepping outside the box.

Anyway, always go for your dreams and never give up! Glad to be a part of the mer community :)

Hi Jamie :) nice to meet you.

For anyone curious, I'm planning to make a silicone tail. I've made a thread in the tail making forum: http://mernetwork.com/index/showthread.php?10063-My-Awareness-Tail
