This is a parenting blog but it is also subject to whatever wild whim strikes my fancy. There will probably be blog posts about relationships, dogs, laundry detergent, job hunting and most certainly random silliness.
Things you need to know:
- Reading “The Dirt” page will explain why I am a bad mom
- I am 37
- My daughters are 9, 13 and 15
- The oldest is pan-sexual and might actually be a boy, but we’re still figuring that out (don’t worry if you don’t know what pan-sexual is, I’m still wrapping my brain around it also and every day is an adventure!)
- I adopted the two oldest kids, the youngest would be my step-daughter if I would ever agree to marry her father (who is the most wonderful man I have ever met)
- I do not drink (but I used to)
- I do not do drugs but I did smoke cigarettes because I was an idiot.
- I have a totally kick ass job as a marketing executive for a tech company
- I was making a six-figure income but ended up on food-stamps for awhile…
- I am happily divorced
- My ex-husband was a horribly abusive human being
- I am now raising my family with with an amazing man I call “Cute Boyfriend”
- My dog is also in love with the same man, she calls him “Alpha”
- Cute Boyfriend and I are a biracial couple. He is hispanic, I am white
- Cute Boyfriend is an aerospace engineer
- I am happy
- My kids are happy
- We are all safe and healthy
- I secretly LOVE gas station nacho cheese
- My houseplants have a 50/50 shot at survival
- I sleep with a nasal strip on because without it I could potentially snore paint off walls
Please read and enjoy. Writing brings me great happiness. Hopefully my blog will make you giggle, bring you comfort or give you something to think about during awkward silences.
