and so , it begins . . .

Holy Crap and wowzers !
After 4 years of everyone harassing me to start a blog, plus a couple of phone convos with my Mumsie and favorite Auntie, I am actually friggin' doing this shit !
Well how bout' that ?
this is a strange journey indeed for someone who is only just barely computer literate,but it feels excellent taking the plunge !
I suppose it is probably customary that I share a bit about myself , just so you know what kind of southern-fried crackpot loony you are subjecting yourself to.

I am a 32 year old "old lady" , Okie, born and bred . My Mum is Catholic and Dad's in the running for the worst and least observant Jew in the history of all Judaism. Yes , my childhood was interesting. I consider myself a "Hin-Jew-Palian" ( i'm not sure if i coined that myself or not, but feel free to use it either way ,and just in case you need a definition , if you put Hindu, Jewish, and Episcopalian in a blender,you get Hin-Jew-Palain :-)   Yes I believe in Jesus, but I also think there is a LOT to be learned from keeping an open mind, and there is beauty and wisdom in all forms of praise and worship.

I am the mother of one exceptionally spirited five year old girl , and the wife of an exceptional disabled retiree. We Just bought our dream cottage in an idyllic small town here in Oklahoma and are still in the throes of settling in and unpacking . That is all you get about me for now. I will warn you though, there are secrets, and there are many. Some of the subjects that will be discussed here may be shocking to you, but i believe in maintaining an open and honest discourse . I have a profound dislike of gratuitous language, therefore i will not use "curse words" except for the sake of humor, or to prove a point.

To quote Steven Tyler , " Life's a Journey, not a destination."

So lets get this blasted thing on the road now shall we ?
