Life never turns out how you picture it.....and mine was no exception. I was a wild child to say the least at age 16. I had my share of heartbeaks and disappointments. I was born in Palatine, IL. My mom was a secretary and my father, a cop. We had a typical suburban life....until they divorced. Then it was shuttling back and forth to Dad's house and then new people in their lives, and ours. Needless to say, I had some difficulty in adjusting to the situation.
My dad moved out of the area to a small town in Northern, WI where he had a cabin, our vacation spot where we spentmost of our summers. I was very upset by this move and my mother, stepfather, and I were having a very difficult time getting along. My mother called my father and I was quickly moved to that small town in WI.....a horrible thing to do to a child at the age of 14. For the next 2 years I was shuttle back and forth between Illinois and Wisconsin and I truly believe I made my parents miserable.
A long story short.....Graduation party 1989.....cute guy.....alcohol.....and 9 months later a beautiful baby boy!!! YIKES!!!
So here I am, age 37, my son is 20 and in schoool and out of the house. He's a great kid!! I am so glad he didn't have the issues that I did as a teenager.
So this blog will cover my new everyday life, the challenges and the triumphs.....the thoughts and feelings that randomly run through my head.
This should be exciting!!!
