Gibby

Things you should know about me:

I used to work in the advertising world. Drugs, that is. I wrote about drugs. Loved it.

I retired when Poonch was born, and have been a SAHM for over 7 years.

Most days I love staying at home.

I support Obama.

I love reality TV.

I love to read US magazine, but gave up my subscription when I realized Poonch could read the headlines.

I love sports. Watching them, that is. This allowed me to have a ton of guy friends in high school and college.

I love all types of music, but rap and metal I can do without. OK, so I guess I shouldn't use the words "all types of music."

I used to live in a big city, now I live in the burbs.

I've been married for 8 years to my best friend.

I have a one-year-old black lab and a really old cat who hates the lab.

Things you shouldn't know about me but I will tell you anyhow:

There are days when I don't like staying at home.

I love to go to Starbucks and spend $5 on coffee.

I hate housework.

I hate making dinner.

I don't do my hubby's laundry, he does (see why he is my best friend?).

I like reality TV.

I really don't know how to blog.

I don't like blogs that only have contests. Where is the writing?

I hope to be a published author someday, so that while my kids are at school I can hang out in my home office writing and then turn off the computer at 2:30 ready to be MOM.

I like SOME Miley Cyrus songs.

I need to lose 10 pounds, but don't focus on it because I am trying to teach my girls to have a healthy body image.

The thought of my girls turning into teenagers scares the hell out of me.

I really have no idea how to be a good mom, but then again, who does?????
