Honesty is what I am trying to achieve here, no matter how mundane that gets. I just want to let it all hang while maintaining the pristine integrity of the blogosphere. So, what can I tell you about me…I’m a motherless SAHM to three kids, two boys and a girl. I’m working on the endlessly nascent YA novel. Last year I wrote a children’s picture book (sans pictures) that I have been trying to pitch to no avail, but I still have hope. I am fairly inept when it comes to today’s technology, even though in another life, I did fancy myself quite expert at hooking up the components of my hi-fi stereo, which had speakers the size of end tables. I guess that’s all I have to tell you here. We’ll figure out the rest in my blog.
As for parenting, I have many philosophies, though the one that currently comes to mind is this: Laughter is the best medicine. But it doesn’t hurt to keep some Benydryl handy.
All of these are in no particular order, though I feel more strongly about some than others:
THINGS I LIKE ABOUT ME (subject to change)
I make a wicked grilled cheese.
The way I keep things running over here.
My Flintstone-esque feet.
As it turns out, I am quite buoyant.
PET PEEVES (invariable)
Brown parts on bananas
Stupidity
Racism
Blind faith
When the toilet paper is on the roll backwards
Gum on sidewalks
Dog scat on sidewalks (or any kind of scat, for that matter)
The fashion statement made when shorts are paired with tights
THINGS FOR WHICH I WOULD WALK A MILE
Dairy Queen Blizzard (Reese’s Pieces variety)
New Toothbrush
An Excellent Massage (foot or body)
Even if I lived on the sun, I would continue to eschew iced coffee.
