A Little About Mom

Well I guess this is where I let you know a little bit about me and why this site is here. The site is here because I needed a place to put all my thoughts together, then maybe they would make sense. I doubt it, but hey I'm willing to give it a try.

I have been a stay at home mom for the last 5 years. I left my job at one of the Big 3 automakers to devote my time to my newly, restarted family. I felt the way that society is heading my kids are going to need more guidance from me than ever. I had to be here in order for that to work. Some days I miss being in the workforce, but mentally I don't think I can handle that right now.

As far as me, I am a bipolar, neurotic mess. Well, I manage pretty well. I have been dealing with bipolar for well over a decade and can cope most of the time. The mood swings are the fun parts. My kids look at me like I'm an alien from another planet, but they know it will soon pass. It does make it hard being a mom with bipolar sometimes. There are those days that I want to crawl in a whole and never come out. That is just not an option. My family pulls me through and I rely on them to try and understand. Other than that I'm not too bad. I have been with my wonderful husband for over 10 years and we are getting ready to celebrate our 8th wedding anniversary.

A little something about our offspring. My hubby has a 21 year old son from his 1st marriage. I have a 15 year old son and a 13 year old daughter from previous relationships. Together we have 2 little boys ages 5 and 2. I have the 15, 5 and 2 year old boys home with me. I should have a sign on my front door that says "Testosterone Zone - Enter at Own Risk!" It can get hairy, but there isn't much of a fight for the bathrooms. Life is fun though, the kids and my husband are my reason for everything. If you would like to tell your story please visit Mom's Forum. Keep up with what's going on here on Mom's Blog.

Well that pretty much sums it up. I hope that you enjoy the site and have fun. I will be adding more soon.
