What's the Secret word?



I just wanted to welcome you all to my blog! By looking at my archives you may see less then 60 posts! And only one month old, what a newbee! Not the case, I had to go into hiding!


Well it's not that serious, I just had to many family, and friend readers of my old blog. The people that personally know you seem to be way more judgemental of you then complete strangers. So I changed out my blog for a new one. This one. My blogging experience goes back to February of 2007, and I have been a SITS girl since day 1!


I have meet so many awesome women and mothers through SITS (I am sure there are guy bloggers out there too...) and they teach me that I am not the only one going crazy doing this mom thing, wife thing, and well just day to day living thing.


I hope you enjoy my blog. Let me know what you think, I am open to comments, and new friends.


I must tell you about me, I tend to talk alot, and I can be quiet feisty at times, I also swear alot, I have learned in my 30 years on this planet, that I am not just a suburban mom of two with a mohawk.


I am an artist of scrapbooking, paper crafts, drawing and paper mache. I love animals with a passion (see Ding and Dong, and Thing one and Thing two), and I can easily get buried in a great Dean Koontz book, but right now I am starting the Twilight series.


I am girly, yet I love getting messy. I love all kinds of music, mostly top 40's. My favorite ever is P!nk, she is an inspiration to me, and can get me through any day. Music depends on my mood, if I want to dance, or chill or just rock out.


I am a devoted to letting others know about my sister and her muscle disorder, Dystonia.


I love to blog, and read blogs, and comment on blogs... did I mention I love blogging? It's such a relief to find a way to empty this busy head of mine. I have tried a journal, with pen and paper, but my brain goes so much faster then my hands can write.


OK, OK I will stop rambling, and let you get on with you reading. Again welcome, and I hope you stay awhile. There is coffee in the kitchen, bathroom is right around the corner, make yourselves at home. Enjoy.

Stopping by from SITS. Great to see your blog featured today. Yes, I know what you mean about family reading your blog too. Sometimes it can get a bit awkward - all the best with the new one.

Celine said...

Welcome SITSa! :)

Not lurking, I promise. Over here from SITS. Like what I see...

Congrats!
Yes, I know what you mean about fam/friends reading the blog and getting offended when you don't mean for them to. That's why I started a 'secret blog'! I'll post it below.

I know what you mean. Being able to joke and vent in your own voice without being judged is wondeful.
PS love the cats

Congratulations SITtser.
I wanna smooch Thing 1 and Thing 2. Having two cats is a far better thing than having one cat. Now I just need to convince Mr. Man of that.
I once had 21 and then there was the ex.

Great blog! So fun. I love to swear too and I think doing it well is a true art form.

My girls still think damn and hate are the worst words. So far, I've gotten away with "no sweetie, Mumma said frog."

Isn't Pink amazing? I love that song to the president that you posted.

Congrats on being Saucy - and I mean that in it's complete sense! I LOVE your attitude on your site and will be back for more.

Thanks for the unintentional advice as far as "exposing" myself to more real-life friends. I think you're correct, blogging is best shared between people who "get" blogging.

Congrats on your sits day! Love your hair - was that inspired by Pink?

Theresa Cloyd said...

Congrats on being the Featured Blogger on SITS!!! I love your sense of humor. I believe we think the same way. I get where your coming from with the judgemental family. Half of my family is mormon so I always feel like I need to be on my best behavior around them.

Congratulations! It's been a sheer joy to look through your blog. The animals (oops, don't let them hear the A word) are adorable! I'll be back to visit again.

Tamie said...

I am new to SITS and I have enjoyed reading your blog. I feel the same way about family & friends reading my blog who pass judgement. I started my blog all over again, but still feel the same way. I feel I can't be true to myself & express myself. YOU ROCK & can't wait to read more!

You are SAUCY!!
