My first Blog

Wow! This is my very first blog ever! I mean, I have never even so much as written a diary, or made a journal entry. What an undertaking! I wonder if I'll keep this up.

Hmmm. Well. A little about me.
I am a 40 year old mother of 3. (Whoa! wait a minute. I'm 40 years old. FOUR-ZERO. FOURTY. I've been fourty for ten months now. I'm almost 41, in fact, but I've been so busy with my everyday tasks that I didn't realize I was 40!!! I'm middle aged! AARRGGHH!)

I think I need to think about this for a while....

Ok, I'm a 40 year old mother of 3 with a brand new middle age crisis. My son just started his senior year in high school. He works as a delivery driver at our pizza shop/breakfast restaurant combination. My middle daughter is a sophomore and helps as a waitress there, when she isn't playing SOCCER!!! (yep, I'm a soccer mom) and my youngest, hated by all because she is "spoiled" and "such a baby" is six and just started FIRST grade. She makes me feel young again. (yeah right!). I have four dogs, four birds and a cat and we all live in a tiny two bedroom house that my husband and I keep saying we are going to move out of because there just isn't enough room here for all of us. The problem is, we never go because we are so busy with everything else!

So, here begins my story. The story of me, the 40 year old, middle age mom raising a spoiled baby, a soccer queen and my 18 year old baby boy. (Don't tell him I said that, he'll be mad.)
While juggling a job and animals and housework and sports and life. Everyone says they don't know how I do it, so here's the scoop!
