When I started this blog. I will be honest and say I was just winging it 🙂
But I will give all of you other bloggers a lot of credit……This is a lot harder then I thought but I will not give up.
Going into this I wanted to take my time. I always tend to rush into things and then when I fail at it, I just assume its me and back out.
But not this time…..so I am slowing down and taking my time to get and give all I can to make people come back and chat with me about my passion of books.
The name of the blog in no way reflects that I hate my life (my mom was worried about the name lol) just the everyday working, laundry and cleaning. Because I love it (my life not the working, laundry and cleaning, and the bills stink too) 😉 being able to escape into a good book once the house is quiet is one of my favorite things to do.
So I wanted to take this time to tell you a little bit about me……
I am blessed with an amazing, handsome and hard working Husband who I have know for 15 years and have been Married to for 10…. absolutely adore him (which is a good thing since you don’t want to be married to someone you hate) 🙂
I have two awesome children…..
My son Ryan is 8 and is on the Autism Spectrum (PDD-NOS). That in itself is an adventure. What an amazing kid he is. Everyday he makes me more and more proud of him. We have gone through so much together and I will never stop fighting for him or helping him. He makes me see life a little different 🙂 (On April 2nd its Autism Awareness Day and Ryan and I will be featuring a special edition of What’s on your bookshelf?” that day hope you will stop by)
My daughter Julia is 5, she is a funny, smart and beautiful little girl. She is my little ballerina (The picture under the about me is of her in her Tutu). We can talk for hours. I love my girl time with her. She teaches me to slow down and just enjoy the day and not be so worried about the little stuff.
I also have two fluffy children Dexter our Cockapoo and Buttons our Ferocious Calico Cat 🙂
I am a Graphic Designer. I work for a company that makes Menus, Diner Menus, I have to admit its a lot of fun and makes me rather hungry sometimes 🙂
I also enjoy cooking…..I love to cook. I watch the Food Network a lot!!!!
When I’m not watching the Food Network, I watch, Vampire Diaries, Supernatural, Grimm, Game of Thrones, Face Off on Sci-Fi and OF COURSE Once Upon a Time (best.show.ever)
and I love repeats of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Lois and Clark, Hercules and some reality shows. Besides that I like to play video games with my kids and without them sometimes….and I am a HUGE fan of Disney!!! Everything DISNEY. We usually go on vacation every year to Disney, I have made my kids Disney crazy also 🙂 I spend a lot of time at the Jersey Shore in Summer (please don’t compare that statement with that stupid show on MTV, I hate that show). But I am 100% a fall and winter girl. I love Halloween and Christmas. Even at this age I am still like a little kid on Christmas Morning 🙂
So now that you know a little bit more about me lets get back to business!!!!
So I am working on a few things and I’m getting ready for my first Blog Tour next weekend (Sunday March, 17th) I can’t wait.
Until Next Time……

I LOVE your design . . it is so pretty!!! I have a son who is 10 and has moderate learning difficulties with lots of autistic traits . .we have been lucky enough to start him in SEN education this term, rather than mainstream and his frustration is easing! I am obviously a new follower from Book Blogs 🙂

P.S. have you
Thank you! My son is also not mainstreamed. He gets frustrated very easy also. We found a great school for him that is helping with his behavior and autism. He also suffers from extreme anxiety which we are dealing with now. It took us a long time to get to this point but I'm seeing a lot of changes in him for the better and I'm so happy 🙂
Thanks for the follow and I followed
You changed your page design up! It looks gorgeous! Your kids are adorable btw! Looking forward to what you have coming up on your blog 🙂
