Me is a 38 year old mother of three who has had a lifetime love affair with books. It has just recently entered my mind that I might try to write one. There isn't a genre that I don't love. Mystery, romance, science fiction, true crime, give me a book and I will read it. I often think when I am reading a book that I could have said something better or wiser.....it could just be that I have an overinflated ego.
I have three great children, ages 14, 12, and 10, who are the pride and joy of my life. I also have a wonderful husband, who is not only the love of my life but my formerly missing (and best) half. They make my life whole. We have two crazy dogs....Bandit our 7 year old black and white rat terrier and Princess a.k.a. Bratzilla, our newest addition (a mutt who will steal your heart and your shoes) who at just 7 months old is already bigger than Bandit and he is permanently annoyed with her...much to her enjoyment.

At some point in everyone's life there comes a time when "This too shall pass" comes into play, some just have more instances than others. When you are faced with a situation that looks so bleak, it's tough to see the opportunities that same situation has presented. When your electricity gets shut off because you can't pay, it's hard to see that candles are quite romantic or that those board games that are gathering dust in the closet might finally see daylight. When your heat gets shut off in the middle of winter, it's hard to see that this is the best time to snuggle up with your husband...
