About Me

  • About Me: I'm a full-time wife and mother, part-time proofreader, aspiring photographer/designer/organizer/coordinator/crafty-sewing-etc.person who usually tries to do too many things and therefore doesn't finish many of them. I'm going through a crisis of everything - self, life, image, belief, duties, perceptions... I'm not sure where I'm going, but I'll be happy to get off this crazy ride and arrive! Mostly I write about my husband and boys, but occasionally I delve a little deeper. You never know what you might find out!

Books

  • Favorite Quotes: "Ambition is a poor excuse for not having sense enough to be lazy." -Edgar Bergen "One of the advantages of being disorderly is that one is constantly making exciting discoveries." -A. A. Milne (I dedicate this to my wonderful, excited, husband.) :) "I am returning this otherwise good typing paper to you because someone has printed gibberish all over it and put your name at the top." -an English professor (It's the proofreader in me. I can't help it.)

More About Me

  • Interests: Reading books and magazines, selling things on ebay, family & child-rearing, making aesthetically pleasing check-marks, photography, some sewing, cooking, the doctrine of the local church, fashion, mineral makeup, design, hanging laundry on a line outside, painting, shopping, organizing my closet by color and style, arranging art on walls, telling people what to do, "reality" tv (not sure how realistic it really is)... There's not much that I'm not at least somewhat interested in! I rarely mop or vacuum, although I constantly find myself sweeping. I love SLEEEEEEEP. I do not grout shower tiles, although if I did, our shower might look nicer. I love "spying" on my friends through xanga and facebook! I love having internet access!
  • Expertise: Hmmmm.... wasting time? Or... relaxing?! I'm very very good at sleeping, although I put it off as long as possible most nights. I regret that in the morning, though.
  • Occupation: Wife. Mother. Cook. Proofreader. Coordinator. Motivator. Cheerleader. Housekeeper. Arranger-
