A little about me.....

My name is Susie and I am a wife of 24 years and a mother of 4 daughters.  My oldest daughter, named after me (Susie) is 24, Chelsea is my second daughter and is 21, Michelle is my third daughter and she is 19, and Shelby who is my baby and is 12...I work with my husband at a trucking company where we are agents.  Three years ago we moved 5 hours south of our home to take on a new adventure, and I have never looked back.  I love our new home and I'm so grateful for this opportunity to grow and to find a life of my own. Sure I miss the family get together, sometimes...but the freedom I have now is awesome.  If you have ever lived close to your family, you know what I'm talking about...:)  No more drama daily.  Well almost, you have to keep in mind I have teenage daughters, and with daughters you also get all the girlfriends that no one understands and that my friends is DRAMA, at all times...

I like arts and crafts, I love the country look but my husband hates the country look, so I try to keep everything in a french county look...I sneak country in every now and again, that's a little tricky, but he doesn't seem to mind the tuscany/french country look as much.

I feel that my house should and will look like a catalogue at all times, and this drives my family nuts...but it's how I'm wired. Who doesn't like to come home to a home cooked meal (thank you Mr crock pot) and a fresh clean house?  I know I do...

My husband is my high school sweetheart and he does whatever he can to make me happy.  He helps around the house, he's great at cooking, and he goes for walks with me in the evening.  He even puts up with my two little dogs...Jaxson and Gemma.

I have found that writing makes me feel stronger and happier, so I decided to take this blog and make it my own....I'm not much of a writer or very good with words, but I'm going to do it just the same....:)

If nothing else, I just might learn something about ME....
