Who am I? (Yes it's been one of those days.)

I am a thirty-year-old (As of 2008) stay-at-home-mother of two, wife of ten years, pet owner of three cats, and one dog, home owner, and homeschooler. I go out with my mother twice a month, I go to my parents house once a week for “family” dinner.

I write high fantasy, romance, and comedy screen plays. I go out with a writing buddy once a week (provided I have the time, or the husband doesn’t need the car, and I meet with a write group once a month.

I love to write and I will be published one day (not some day). When I write, I write a lot, upwards of 10,000 words per day, but I usually average about 5,000 words (though I am trying to cut back).

I knit and I crochet. It’s mostly crap, but I am getting better at it. I can also sew and do funky crafts with my girls.

The husband and I get along most of the time, though I do have my mood swings-and he has his. I go through phases of not liking him, but like every other bad thing in life, it passes. My current phase is not liking him. (Make it difficult to write a love story.)

My girls fight like the siblings they are, but I usually find then curled up together at the end of the day, sleeping in some odd place. They love to sleep anywhere except their beds. They are the best of friend and the worst of enemies (Unless there are cookies in the top cupboard).

My oldest started first grade this year. We are homeschooling, because I feel she would be one of the ones left behind. I don’t think she has a learning disability or anything, but, I can easily see her getting lost easily in a thirty child class setting. So, I am homeschooling her, which means I get to do the same with my youngest next year when she starts kindergarten.

So, who am I? I am all those things I talked about, and so much more. I am me, and being me is great, when it doesn’t suck. But isn’t that life and the beauty of living?
