Just a bit about me........
I'm a mom of twins - they are 11 years old and the lights of my life. I've been married to my best friend for 17 years. I have a full time (plus) job doing something I love at my alma mater university. I am also a part time PhD student - because I obviously don't have enough to do!
I have a wonderful family, and parents who didn't spoil me when I was a child so they spoil me now. I have amazing friends who are supportive of my adventures. I love to tell stories and make people laugh, and one of my secret dreams (not so secret anymore) is to write a book. This blog was started as a way to tell my stories and make people laugh, in a way that's not as intimidating (to me) as writing a book.
I love watching movies, and I love reading. I like to be "in the know" and I can keep a secret like nobody's business. I love to eat - particularly sweets. My capacity to eat large amounts of sugar and not be sick is legendary. I absolutely hate to sweat. (This combined with my love of eating has resulted in about 20 pounds that I'd rather not have.) I like the idea of being a runner, but not the reality.
I am a lover of low maintenance things - landscaping, clothes, fingernails, makeup, friends. I don't collect things, but I love to collect knowledge. I have never taken a college credit anywhere but my current university. I bleed the school colors. I love watching football. I love music, but can't play a lick or carry a tune. I never talk about God or politics in polite company. I really just want us all to get along, and have a laugh or two while we are doing it.
