I am here for Friends

About Me

life could not be any better! every day is a new adventure, i never get bored and i always hit the bed completely exhausted. the kids are growing like weeds and i am doing my best to keep up with them.i am listening to my new favorite band o.a.r... wonderful day.. thanks to my new favorite person and pandora.now...if only the bike shop was open i could really get started with my day!Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, martini in the other, totally worn out and screaming... "WOO HOO, what a ride!" - Anonymous.
