About Me

My photo
One of my favorite lines in Alice In Wonderland is "and WHO are You?" That is a great question to which I would have to answer -I am a mother, a wife, a sister and auntie, an accountant, runner, friend, cook, consumer, reader, photographer, and daughter. I live in the life of a farming family, I love to travel.... too many things to try to pick just one and I would never want to try, these are the things in life that make me tick. I am who I am, you get what you get, and I love my life. In other words... "It is what it is".

Do I hear school bells?

      It's time again.  School starts next week which means that soon all the controlled chaos that I live with in my life will soon become "uncontrolled chaos".  It begins right off the bat, all the things that I become so relaxed and scheduled about during the summer months off go straight to hell in about a weeks time.

     During the summer I get in good exercise, great eating habits, some gardening and yard work, I see the kids or at least speak with them on the phone regularly without much interruption, I make fabulous meals and leisurely shop, and take naps.....

      Going back to work means unscheduled eating, exercise and time that just flys by - but fun beyond words.  I love working with the kids.  I love how they think, the stories they tell, the laughter they produce and the views of the future that they are excited to share.  I love my "job" just as much as I love having summer off because it seems that in a blink of an eye each year summer will be back before I know it.  In the mean time, I work at a school where I learn more from the kids than I could ever teach them - I love their spirit and enthusiasm, they way they smile and enjoy one another and still have some innocence - they are amazing little people and they make "working" a wonderful treat each day.  It means spending less time on the maintenance part of my life but it does my heart wonders.
