3: Just The Facts


Well, if you are reading this post you are either 1. a member of my family or a friend, 2. a curious follower of my other blogs or, 3. reading this in the future when this blog becomes HUGE and all my loyal fans go back and read every post I have ever written. (That'll happen, right?)

I figured I would take this time, while we are still getting to know each other, to share some facts about me...

I am a stay-at-home mom to two boys, ages 4 and 2. They are the cutest, funniest, smartest kids I know. You'll have to just trust me on this as I'm not too clear yet on just how much I want to share about the details of their life.

I am separated from my husband which has been the most difficult thing I've ever had to endure. Yes, worse then childbirth. The details of why it has been so hard are, right now, between me and my therapist but maybe someday I can get enough distance from the hurt, anger, and grief to discuss it a bit. Again, not sure how much I want to share about the details of our life.

Whew, those are the big ones. Here are some other "fun facts"...

I am a former web designer, a fan of the Boston Red Sox, a lover of summer. I dislike waking up in the morning (especially before the sun), pretensions, and waiting. I love coffee, brownie sundaes, and my Kindle.

Now who are you?

    Hi!! I'll have to check out your other blogs. I'm also a stay at home mom to 4 and 2 year old boys. They are the light of my life. I cannot even begin to imagine what you are going through right now.
    Love Spring, the summers are too hot in Dallas :o) Love to scrap, crochet and watch my boys paint and draw. It's wonderful to meet you!

    GO SOX!! Let's hope they have a better year this year =)))

    I'm also a Sox fan, work in a very small sales office where I've been for 25 years and where I met my boyfriend of 16 years, Steve. We have one grandson who is the love of our lives and a Bernese Mountain Dog named Tucker who also owns our hearts. We spend a lot of time at hockey rinks with our grandson and dog parks with Tucker.

    Other than that, we love to travel. Our favorite place is Gettysburg, where we are hoping to retire to when the time comes. Besides that, we'll go just about anywhere =))

      Thanks Peggy! The doodly background is one of the patterns that Blogger offers, I haven't had time to find/make something original yet. Welcome!

    Not sure how *far in the future this is as you only posted two days ago :)
    I L.O.V.E. QualityDigiScrap Freebies on FB. How can we know about all the people behind the posts either on a blog or on FB? I'm so sorry to hear that you are going through a bad time right now. I'm sure you will make it to the other side in a better, happier place.
    My true sentence? Every day I wake up and try to be a better wife, mom and person.
    Thank you for your work on FB :)
