Jess: I'm boring really.
Likes: animals, my family, my friends, my kids, plotting evils. Dislikes: my crazy neighbors, my crazy family, dumb people.
I blog because I wanted to be a writer. My parents looked at me disappointed when I told them, so I dropped that & went to college & got a psychology degree. Something I need while dealing with, well, everything.
I try to be funny. While I tend to expect the worse to happen, I at least try to make it fun, for myself & others.
When that isn't happening, I'm being sad. Hard to avoid that when you're part of the dead baby club. Our son, Joel, was stillborn at 40 weeks May 28th, 2009. In losing him, I'm finding myself more everyday, along with strength I never knew I had.
And while I may never get famous from this blog, at least I can pretend I am writing for someone other than myself. And maybe, just maybe, someone will get something out of it.
I also like margaritas. Even more since May 28th, but hey, it's life.
An angel in the book of life wrote down my baby's birth, Then whispered as she closed the book, "Too beautiful for Earth" ~Unknown
