About Me

About Me

Once upon a time there was a little girl who had a dream of being a superhero when she grew up. That little girl was me. I grew up and became ordinary.

One evening at 10:00 p.m at night, I decided ordinary was boring. It was time to start my superhero journey. I would start a blog. No, I didn’t know anything about blogging. I’ve learned a lot along the way. This blog is part of my journey to be a better me. I record the adventures of my life on this blog. I also support my superhero goal by stretching myself with 13 day challenges. Why 13 days?  The self-help gurus say a habit is formed in 21 days. I don’t like to do what everybody else tells me to do.  So, I’m just doing each challenge for 13 days.  You can join me on my journey by doing your own challenges.  When I’m not living life or writing on this blog,  I’m really busy. I teach amazing students, read books, dance in my kitchen, try to be like Jesus and try to save the world in some small way every  day.

The Family

I come from a really big family.  The family will show up as characters on this blog. I don’t have everyone’s permission to post pictures so you will probably see more pictures of the sister and parents more than my brothers. I have 3 awesome brothers, 3 amazing sister-in-laws, a million cousins and friends that I dearly love.  I consider my friends part of my family.

The Accountant

My former husband is the named  “The Accountant”.  He is not really an accountant. He has another job. I have given him that nickname due to his love of math. The Accountant loves to crunch numbers and track things on spreadsheets. He also likes hiking, camping, music, baking and  sports. He is part of the adventure called “My Life”.   The Accountant shows up quite a bit in the early years of this blog.  The marriage didn’t work out , but I can never erase the impact he had on my life.

My Wonder Women

I believe that people are good.  As part of my superhero journey, I highlight other woman who are doing great things in the world. The stories inspire me. We can learn so much from another person’s journey.
