Hi there.

Most of you know me because hey that’s how most blogs start right?? So for those that don’t this post is to introduce you to me and my fam. I don’t plan on using my kids real names here for their privacy. I don’t expect this blog to be huge or anything but you never know. Along with the fact this is the internet I feel better doing it this way. Plus its a great way to teach them about online privacy. So let me introduce to the major players.

Me: I am Missie. I am 44 stay at home mom who until the pandemic worked part time my favorite being a doggie day camp worker. I have a hubby (the hubs) we have been together 20 years married for 16 and known each other way longer. We have 2 awesome kids (yeah I am bias but it is my blog lol), 2 dogs, and 2 cats. My extended family is huge and I’ll do a blog introducing them, well at least the major players. I have opinions, ideas, and you will hear them all. Just know none of it comes from a hateful place,I am going try and make all my blogs on the lighter side. I always try and find the funny in things.

The Hubs: well if I say to much about him it will go right to his head. We met when he was 16 and I was 20 (a blog for a later date). Started dating almost 4 years later and have been together ever since. He is a hard worker, a beer brewer, a great dad, and the love of my life. As we like to say he is the jam in my jellyroll.(bonus points if you can name the movie lol)

The Boy: this is our son. We like to say he is the best early Christmas gift we ever got. Really he is the best surprise we have ever received. He works hard and we couldn’t be prouder of him. He has already graduated and has had a steady girlfriend (E) for over a year.

Peanut: this is our daughter. She is a teenager (barely). She is an animal loving kid. She came on a day that used to be very hard for me and has made our world brighter ever since. She is the most nervous about me doing a blog and the reason I am not using real names.

The animals: yes they get introduced too. Every one is a rescue of some sort. Our 2 all American mutts Car and Sal (fake names too hahaha) came from 2 different shelters and have happily found their furever homes. The cats Kee and Gee (see above) came from homes that couldn’t keep them. Kee is Peanut’s best friend and follows her everywhere.

That’s it those are my monkey’s and this is my circus.

I will most likely post once or twice a week depending on what I want to talk about.

I hope you all have a super-good day!!
