I haven’t fallen off the face of the Earth, it’s just been CRAZY busy for me this week. I’ve been doing a bunch of cleaning up and painting jobs, no time for much else right now. Spring in Upstate New York is crazy. After a long and dull winter, we suddenly come scurrying out of our houses, ladders and paintbrushes in hands, and slap on the paint and nail the roofs… until the cold winter hits us again in a few months. Well, I’m exaggerating a little, but only a LITTLE.
Anyway, I’ll be back. After I scrub all this paint off my hands and arms!


I’m a married mom with 4 kids. We live in Upstate New York in an old 1855 house with our five pets (yes, five, *sigh*). Life is never dull, and exciting things just seem to always happen to me... why me... when I'm not running around the house fixing things, I do freelance writing and blogging. My work and opinions have appeared in Salon.com, USAToday, eHow.com, iMedia.com, the Associated Press and I've even been interviewed by TIME and The Wall Street Journal about blogging. Can you believe it?! Here is where I express my zany, creative, motherly side.
