Who is this woman?

I am just a girl with an untamed spirit, an opinion larger than life and an unapologetic cry baby when I watch the TV series “This Is Us”.

I am a mother of a 25 year old daughter who…much to her chagrin did not fall far from this tree. We share parenting a giant 110+ lbs bear who we adopted named Margo. She loves unconditionally, is as soft as a pillow, and can out fart and burp any person I know.

I am a lover of yoga but I am terribly inflexible and I don’t even care, I am still committed. I played Flag Football for 20 years but sadly gave it up a year ago.

I am a beer snob…Craft not Crap (A little game I made up and am happy to share the rules). I smoke cigars, love white chocolate, hate the rain, made of cheese and will accept any cooking challenge put forth to me.  Bring it!

I have traveled my whole life, most often solo, since I was in grade 8.  From spending a summer in Mexico when I was 15 with a couple girlfriends, no parents to living in Japan and going to school in grade 10 & 11 and also worked there after I graduated…so much experience before I turned 19.  I was lucky, very lucky to have had such amazing parents who offered up life altering experiences on a silver platter. They worked their asses off to ensure I became a happy well rounded, open minded kind human.  They are, by the way, still happily married.  50 years later, they still date and go parking.  They kiss before they say goodbye everyday and my mom gets a love smack on her ass and it still makes her giggle and blush.  My dad = best guy on earth.
