About me…

I love that topic.  Its on every social network and blog site I encounter.  Sum up your entire person in 200 words or less.  Sure!  Who am I?  That’s the million dollar question.

Basically, I don’t know who I am.  I don’t fit into any nice, neat mold.  I am a study in contradictions.

I am 30-something, but I sometimes feel 18 and other times feel 50.  I am a woman.  I am a semi-liberal democrat, with conventional, almost anti-feminist views.  I am a mother of three who thinks spanking sometimes works better than time-out and enjoy bikini shopping and hip-hop dancing with my teenager.  I live for education and self-improvement and the individual right to be anything you want to be, yet I also savor being a stay-at-home mom and wife.  I’ve felt pride in holding a diploma, a newborn, a paycheck, and my husband’s hand.  I have watched a seed I planted grow into a lush, delicious tomato.  I have watched a child suckle from my breast and grow into a thriving toddler.  I have a close relationship with Jesus, yet consider myself to be a rational, liberal, scientific minded sinner.  My MP3 player sings Taylor Swift, Lil’ Wayne, John Mayer, Metallica, and Micheal W. Smith – often all at the same time.  I was born and reared in the South and have been known to say “ain’t” yet I cringe when I hear someone else use hanging participles.  I love diamonds and Prada, yet I am just as comfortable in hiking boots and a sports bra.  I have found God’s presence in art museums, mountain tops, ballets, hidden creeks, ancient pyramids, running tracks, skyscrapers, and a baby’s cry.

That is a little about me.  I am still learning the rest……
