I have no time to blog, yet here I am. I’m compelled because I have a lot to say, but sadly, when I sit down to do just that, words escape me!
How I wish that I were Saucy, blithe and sublime, and the object of many adoring blog stalkers. Yes it’s true… I’m a Saucy stalker fan, and proud of it. In truth, while I read many blogs, hers is always the first I seek, and that which I adore the most. She makes my day.
As inspiring as she is, I am not a Saucy clone, and that will become apparent as this blog evolves. I am often annoyed, enraged, and simply pissed off over a myriad of things, both online and off. People annoy me. Many things enthrall me though, a few things make me so happy my toes curl, and always, I am opinionated. I don’t apologize for this, it is simply who I am. Take me or leave me. (yeah I know… bye)
So who am I?
I’m a mom of 2. But it’s not that simple, is it? I’m the mom of a 14 year old (yep, the dreaded teen years), who for a very long time was an only child. I’m also the mom of a 4 year old. That one was a shocker, let me tell you! I swear I was asleep, but we won’t go there. My girls are beautiful and unique, and they are both such a part of me that my arms ache when we’re apart.
I’m a wife. Coming up on 18 years now… another shocker! How did we get so old? Is he my soul mate? I think so – he still lights up my life when he enters a room. True we don’t have the same spark that we had so long ago, but we are one, like the Borg.
I am an entrepreneur. A workaholic. A moderate but slow success. I wish I were more, but I’m working on that too.
I am a spelling and grammar Nazi. Can’t help it; it’s one of the things that pisses me off to no end.
I am a singer. Music fills my soul and makes me that much more complete. Some of my dearest friends sing along side me.
I am a writer, and closet poet.
I am the original, published Garagesale Guru. Accept no copies! We can explore this in another post, on another day.
I’m a Trekkie. ‘Nuff said right there (and explains my Borg comment).
I’m a daughter, a sister, an aunt, a friend, a fixer of all things, a nurse, an artist, a maid, and a chauffeur, and since I can clearly go on and on, I think I’ll end it right there. That is more than enough for a first post!
