Happy Monday dear readers! What an exciting time to be a part of the Housewives family. Sabrina has done a rockin’ job with the site. Can I get an AMEN?

I am THRILLED to be the rookie writer! Until about a year ago I balanced a chaotic life of a full time job and was a full time mom to two beautiful little girls. I dumped the paycheck and the daycare payment so now the rascals have my full attention. Most days I feel like I am winging this thing called “child rearing”. My husband and I have been married for almost nine years. He is my best friend and I love him but some days an hour in a confessional professing my sins since childbirth to my MOTHER would be easier to bear. He thinks I am spoiled and high-maintenance and I resent that! Psh, I am so NOT high maintenance.

I appreciate the opportunity to stay home with the girls. Though, some days I miss working whole-heartedly, because I was damn good at my job and I loved the way I looked in stilettos.

Jeans, Converse and concert t-shirts are what I live in now. I LOVE big yellow smiley faces. I can recognize a well-dressed woman and appreciate the look but I wouldn’t know Prada if one of its handbags smacked me in the face. I know how to carry myself and can be sexy when I put on heels and a short skirt. But, put a glass of wine in my hand and I turn into a mess of giggles and goofiness. There is a little bit of tomboy that is embedded in my heart.

New Years brought a new healthier me but I am still a caffeine addict and go weak in the knees for a big greasy heart-stopping juicy cheeseburger. The sushi craze is beyond me. I would prefer a soft flour tortilla and oozy cheese ANY day.

In person I am very animated. An old co-worker best described me as “Tigger” from Winnie the Pooh because I physically bounce around a lot (probably a result of the caffeine overload, but whatever). Oh, and I talk really fast. Sometimes, my mouth gets ahead of my brain and I have conversation hangovers. That is why writing is so fun to me…the DELETE button!

You will probably find that my writing mimics my verbal communication. I use lots of all caps, “!!!”,” ()”, and “….” to tell my stories. It is far from AP correct writing. I blame the Gen Y and texting influence. None of my friends under the age of 30 use any punctuation or paragraph breaks whatsoever. So, I roll with it.
In case you can’t already tell….I ramble….

This blogging thing is new to me so I hope to dive write in (yes, I meant to say it that way). I look forward to the interaction with the readers and hope to bring some entertainment to your Mondays. Thanks for having me.

Roxy
