About Me

Me in a nutshell: I'm a loving wife and stay at home mommy to a beautiful 3 yr old. At my best I'm creative, light-hearted, sassy, honest, witty and I have a natural love for people and an amazing zest for life, did I mention that I'm probably the best person to have on a girls night out. At my worst I'm sharp tongued, brutally honest, introverted, intolerant and slightly dismissive but it's few and far between that my alter ego ever rears her ugly head.

Here I Am!!!

First things first, allow me to introduce myself. I'm a 20 something loving wife (although sometimes my hubby and I behave more like "frienemies"), a stay at home mom to a 3 year old miniature heathen/monster...I mean precious angleboy and I'm LOVING every second of it! Umm, not so much.
Instead of being "nice", can I be real for a moment? Cool, thanks. I love my husband and son but if you're an average mom, at some point you realize that this housewife/mommy circus just ain't what you thought it would be.

Back in my single days, I was a fabulous, fun, fearless female and I was having a blast just living! After feeling like I had "done it all", I got married and soon after I did what most girls in a newlywed daze do, I had a baby. It wasn't until then that I realized what a hot mess I really am! There I was, thinking that I had lived my life to the fullest and the only thing that I hadn't done was settle down and start a family. Little did I know that at times I would feel like I was mourning the death of "the old me" and more often than not you could find me hiding in my closet wondering "what happened to my life?!"

Seriously if you're a "homemaker" then you know that ever day is a constant struggle to hold on to your sanity but then you find yourself saying "you've got to be insane to sign up for this!" While taking care of your family and being the best you to them that you can be, how do you find the energy to "do you"? Well join me in my attempt to clean up this mess that is ME. Suggestions (or clinical recommendations) welcome
