About Me

Background from flickr user..

I'm frequently seen laughing, which often causes me to teeter off my pedestal (only to shimmy back up as fast as my well-heeled shoes will let me). My children in turn laugh at me, knew me when, and never forget to remind me of that fact.
My lust for Tim McGraw will probably cost me every good man I'll ever meet and a fortune in legal fees if I ever get brave. But I'm working on it.
I'm facing forty, marriage and a new career. This is scarier to me than most as it's a bit harder to throw the dart at the map and head for the hole with that much to pack. Fortunately, when my feet get itchy, my friends and family call an intervention and confiscate my car keys.
To date, there's still no pill to combat wanderlust. But the love of a good man with tons of furniture tends to keep me still...
Except for when I move again. Like I just did... again. Go figure.
